IIS cannot access itself
- by dave
We are on a corporate network that uses ISA and I am having issues trying to not have requests go through ISA.
I have IIS7 on my local Windows 7 machine that has websites and a service layer.
The websites access the service layer using a xxxx.servicelayer.local address that is set up in my HOSTS file to point to 127.0.0.1.
I have Windows Firewall client which I have disabled.
I have tried both adding this address into IE so that it does not go through ISA and also disabled this section altogether.
When the website (which is actually IIS making the request to itself) tries to access the service layer I receive an ISA error that proxy authentication has failed.
Considering that everything I can see to configure is set to not go through the proxy, ISA, I cannot see how this is actually going through the proxy and giving this error. Is there something within Windows 7 that forces the proxy setting, some sort of caching or similar?
