I've developed an ASP.NET 4.0 website in VS2012. It turns fine within the VS2012 IDE. It also works fine standalone on my laptop, which is running IIS7 and SQL Server 2008.
However, I'm now trying to get it working for my QA person to test from her computer. Both the client computer and the server are running Windows 7. The client computer is using IE9. The server is running IIS7 and SQL Server 2008. SQL Server definitely has "Enable Remote Connections" turned ON. The server's name is "MULTIMEDIA". The app's name is "Incentives".
On the client machine I type the following into the browser: http://MULTIMEDIA/Incentives
Unfortunately, it doesn't connect. And when I run the Troubleshooter it says: "website (multimedia) is online but isn't responding to connection attempts."
Clearly one or more things are preventing the browser from connecting to IIS.
Might someone be able to suggest an article or blog post I could check out to try to solve this problem? I've already searched several places but cannot find an answer.
