Hello
I am having a APP server and a WFE server. On the APP server i have my CA and all the services that I need. On the WFE I only have the Web appliction and the distributed cache services running.
All my servers are virtual.
I have logged in to the APP server, created an Web-app, and I now can access the Web-app via http//appserver, and from outside the server via http://appserver.domain (trough AAM).
When i login to my WFE server, and browse to the IIS, and the find the Web-app under sites, and browse it, I am getting a error,
“Sorry something went wrong – file not found”.
The ULS log says:
“Cannot finde lookup info for request uri http://localhost/…
AAM have not been config. Users or service are accessing the site http://Appserver/ with the url http://localhost…
… add the http://localhost as an AAM response url”
If there is a logical solution to this, i would like some steps, or guidlines in how to get it working, and learn from it. If the solution is AAM then I would love a simple guide to where in the AAM to put, and what to put in.
And maybe it is something really simple that I am overlooking. Google was not a great help.
Thanks 🙂
I can confirm that there is no need for CA to be running on the WFE.
If the SharePoint Foundation Web Application service is running on the app server then yes essentially it is also performing the duty of a web server, although if DNS is just pointing to your Web Server then this is not too much of an issue apart from the slight memory hit.
So you just get the issue if you perform http://localhost? rather than the actual name you specified for the web app and only from the wfe?
I am trying to shake my brain for you but cannot think of anything off the top of my head. I am sure it will be simple for someone else.
I will let you know if I think of anything.
Just thinking…. have you created a site collection at the root of the web app?
I was inclined to also think of the backconnectionhostname registry entry but that normally shows in the form of continuous password prompts.
