Good day,

I'm trying to install IIS on windows 8 laptop. When i type [http://localhost] it gives me a blank page. I can ping localhost and 127.0.0.1 and get replies and gmail developer tools give me a status of 200 OK. I have McAfee total protection installed and i disabled the firewall on it. I also disabled windows firewall. i just uninstalled Skype. I completely bypassed my router and connected straight from the modem. I restarted and nothing . Just want to get the default iis page up and running Nothing is working please assist.

  • This seemed to have done the trick for me.Somehow http redirects was not installed. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20173698/why-are-blank-pages-being-served-with-200-ok-for-asp-net-errors-in-iis-8-5-wi – CoDeGiRl Feb 24 '14 at 22:04

In case HTTP Redirects doesn't work, check to see that Static Content is enabled as well.

Both of these were not enabled on my new Windows 8.1 > IIS 8.5 ...

Both can be enabled here:

Control Panel > Programs > Turn Windows Features On/Off > IIS > WWW Services > Common HTTP Features

I enabled HTTP Redirects, still blank. Then I enabled Static Content and halleluah !
