This is a general question regarding deploying an MVC asp.net app into a test server.
How do you do it?
I tried to publish and deploy an mvc app into test server (under tight control), and the VS.NET complained that it was not able to update the remote IIS server for creating the virtual directory etc there, although the remote machine is accessible via its IP address.
Check this MSDN Help Page and make sure you meet all the requirments to manage/setup/configure remote IIS sites.

fyi: there should not be any difference between regular asp.net and mvc sites.

I made a simple ASP.net MVC web application in Visual Studio 2013, and I want to deploy it so it can be accessed from the browser on other computers on my local network. I have tried right-clicking my project > Publish (not sure what settings to use, Web Deploy, Web deploy package, File system,
I published the website to my inetpub/wwwroot folder.
I managed to get IIS up an running, I've tried adding an application in the manager and editing the permissions to Everyone. I tried navigating to localhost/application_name but I was getting errors about not being configured to list the directory. I enabled directory browsing, but that just means it now shows a list of the files. How do I get it to actually run the app when I navigate to it in the browser?
Am I close?

You can use IIS Express which comes with visual studio 2013. I've used this method to allow other members of the staff to access the website that is in my computer. Scott Hanselman has done a great post which I use every time when I want to expose a website hosted in local iis express to others in the same network.

If you have any queries, let me know. Hope this helps
When I want to use IIS Express within Visual Studio for development, but allow local network users to see a version of my site, I tend to create a publish profile in VS that publishes to the local file system (e.g. C:\Publish\<yourwebsite>). Then from IIS Manager create a new website pointed to that same folder and it should be accessible to you via http://localhost and to network users via http://<your-pc-name> or http://<your-local-ip>.
You will need to add an exception to Windows Firewall to permit HTTP requests (i.e. port 80) through to your local machine, but if you have configured IIS correctly they should see the website.
It is possible to make IIS Express available to remote clients but that's not what it's designed for so really you're better off going down the IIS route since this will allow you to test the configuration as it would be on a live/production setting at the same time.
Check this, and old version of the same question. I'd bet you need to install IIS locally
Use Visual Studio web server in local network
You need to enable IIS on the host as IIS Express is not built with that in mind. Its for debugging purposes.
You've also not mentioned your binding configurations or your app pool settings.
Here is a comprehensive tutorial on how to publish your application using IIS IIS Video tutorial
You will need to ensure the binding that you specify is available across the network and that the connecting clients have permissions.
The issue was that ASP.net was not registered with IIS
Opened command prompt as administrator
Navigated to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319
Ran aspnet_regiis -iru
Now web app runs in IIS http://www.asp.net/web-forms/overview/deployment/configuring-server-environments-for-web-deployment/configuring-a-web-server-for-web-deploy-publishing-%28remote-agent%29
First time I am trying to publish an mvc website. So far I have published it to a local folder and using IIS I have made the folder a virtual folder. How do I run the website from my browser and how to start it with Account/LogOn?
Here is the link of Video tutorial release by ScottGu regarding MVC deployment and study hope this will help you

There are many articles and tutorials out there about deploying ASP.NET MVC applications. Once IIS is configured you simply point your browser to http://localhost/NameOfTheApp/Home/Index and you should be ready to go.
First which version is there on remote server. For your account logon i am assuming that you are using default membership provider. I normally include membership provider table in my database. If you are running on IIS 6.0 then you have to made some changes as mentioned by Haacked on his blog. While publishing make sure that mvc dll in made copy local and is there on your bin folder on remote site. First publish the site on local and if it is running properly upload it on remote server set the connectionstring as told by your hosting provider
I have an asp.net mvc 2 application which works fine when run from visual studio either in release or debug mode. When the application is deployed to either a remote or local IIS 7 server in release mode it doesn't work.
The error displayed is as follows:
HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden
The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.
Now this is a bit misleading however I have worked out why this error message is being displayed.
The application does not have a default.aspx as this is not needed when running mvc apps on IIS7+
I am using attribute routing which is explained in the link below which uses reflection to build the RouteTable. When interrogating the assembly the attributes are not accessible therefore the RouteTable does not get populated
Since there are no routes the web server attempts to list the directory contents and it does not have permission to do that.
Attribute Routing:

ASP.NET MVC Routing Via Method Attributes
Now my question is what is preventing the application from being able to interrogate the assembly using reflection?

Lack of ReflectionPermission is a likely cause. Many hosting companies over-restrict permissions. Reflection is one that is often problematic. GoDaddy and RackSpace both restrict it.
What trust level is your application running? What hosting provider are you using? Do you have RDP access?
Hi,
I have done the following :
Start Visual Studio 2010
New Project > ASP.NET MVC
Default ASP.NET MVC project generated by VS2010
Add a couple off simple buttons on the first page
Start local IIS manager, Create a web application and point it to the ASP.NET MVC project
Set correct right on the ASP.NET MVC project folder(to the user running the thread pool in IIS7)
Browse site (http://localhost/MyTestSight/) and the first page is shown
Upload site to www.test.figurspel.net
Host sets the site to be runned on .NET 4.0
Browse www.test.figurspel.net and the site is not working?
The host has checked that tha Active Server Page is set to allow
Host has installed up to MVC 3
I could turn on the Browsable to see the file structure but this will not help to get the site running.
How do I get this asp.NET MVC web site running?
BestRegards
Is the application pool running in integrated mode the IIS site running under that application pool?
It's my understanding that if this isn't the case, the MVC site will not run.
Alternatively, have you tried this?
+1 Unicorn power HooooooO!!!!! Also I've always when hosting a site published the project to a different folder then setup the site via IIS from that folder hope this helps.
does anyone have any good links/tutorials about how to create a simple ASP.NET MVC website, and have it run against a Local IIS7 Web Server, instead of the default Visual Studio Development Server (aka Cassini).
Yes, i tried google, but i fail at getting some good keywords, etc.
Cheers :)
Here are my steps:
In IIS, Sites -> Add Web Site...
Fill in the name, whatever you want.
Set the physical path where your app is located.
In the Host Name option, type for example local.test.com
Hit OK
Then I update the hosts file located in $windir$\System32\drivers\etc
Adding the line
127.0.0.1 local.test.com
Don´t forget changing in the application pool of the created website the framework version.
I´m sure there must be other ways, I just follow this steps every time I want to create a new site in my local IIS and it works.
Good luck!
