It just has a red astrik not in RED actually...

Can you even reach your server from outside?

If not, then it's more Azure networking issue....

Yes i can reach my server from outside but only through Remote Desktop connection !!

do you reach by IP or Domain Name?

in the remote desktop connection its by the public ip but ofcourse the port number is different !!

so, actually where you have configured the port 3389 for RDP, did you configure the port for LF?

yes a listner port 80 is being created already !!

can you run netstat -an on machine to see if ports are open?

Do you reach IIS page from outside?

see this for more info:

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/28609/how-can-i-tell-what-is-listening-on-a-tcpip-port-in-windows/

after going through the above i found out the PID -4 is being used by ntoskml service using port 80 by using the command netstat -aon | more.

Do you see any issue or you need further info on this??

Try this: http://superuser.com/questions/352017/pid4-using-port-80

Its suggesting me to stop the Http service by to device manager  and to “Non-Plug and Play Driver”/HTTP.

But i couldn't find it in Windows 2012 r2, i tried to do it through regedit and it stopped my IIS services and even LF service is not starting up, please help me !! 

I have enabled it back now in regedit to its original state and restarted the server.

Afnan,

Can you please answer these questions:

1. Do you have another machine in the same network?

2. Can you access WA from that machine?

3. Can you make WA to work on port 5050 or 5051?

To change the port:

To see what should be the configuration as per your setup:

1. Do you have another machine in the same network? its on azure with only one VM on the network

2. Can you access WA from that machine? no another machine.

3. Can you make WA to work on port 5050 or 5051? i think so !!

wait, you don't need to set it up on 5050 or 5051

Are you using SSL?

nope !!

You want your website to be accessible over internet & without SSL???

yes for now as its for testing purpose so i am using it without once its live as production we might consider SSL also, if you just want me to enable ssl on WA configuration i will without applying the certificate if that matters??

ok...

Go to IIS as per documentation earlier & change it to port 8081

Restart IIS

Then on the same computer open IE & go to: localhost:8081

Check if you get IIS page, if yes then try:

localhost:8081/laserfiche

If that works too, then on your firewall (where you enabled 3389 for RDP), allow 8081

& try to reach your URL but with mentioning of port 8081 like: 

domain:8081/laserfiche

All done and successfull, the last step you need me to do it from outside the network right not locally??

Right,

Exactly as you have done for RDP access.

Do i need to make the changes for the endpoints in Azure configuration as well, meaning add another endpoint for port 8081 as a listner for laserfiche as i had only added port 80 earlier not 8081??

Yes, you have to make it exactly as you have made for RDP

As per your instructions i have created another listener for port 8081 in azure portal, please see the attachment and let me know if this is what you actually wanted me to do or anything else is still missing??

does it work?

I only see port 80 & 3389

Here:

http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/

I checked port on your IP, 3389 is open

80 & 8081 are closed, so it won't work....

sorry i didn't send you the pic after it was saved !! I'll try now, just wanted to confirm shall i try the complete DNS as below:

http://azcsvm.southeastasia.cloudapp.azure.com:8081/Laserfiche

See, this is your IP: 104.43.17.16

I tried on it & it shows only port 3389 is open, so unless you see in this tool the port being open, it won't work...

Yes sir, i do see that after running the tool, what do you suggest why are they close and how can we open these ports to work??

Just for check can you please disable Windows Firewall?

Sure !!

Did you create Endpoint?

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-windows-classic-setup-endpoints/

RDP is by default....so did you make explicit endpoint ?

Yes i did send you the screenshot in which you can see the default RDP was made and i then explicitly made the additional lflistener for port 80 and now i made another for port 8081.

Yes, but neither 80 or 8081 are open as per port scan, so something is not correct.... can you please go through the documentation I sent & check ?

Did you disable the Firewall?

It's hard to figure out without having access....

You have to make the rule on VM 

can you please elaborate which rule are you talking about ??

Please see the article I sent.

I did go through the article and if you are only referring to creating the endpoints for port 8081, that i had already created but here the issue is that these port are closed for some reason, i need to know what needs to be done to open these ports??
