  1. POAzure - hostheader not accepting host without the www
    text
    copied!<p>I have set up my hostheader in the service definintion file as follows:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Site name="Example" physicalDirectory="..\example.WebUx"&gt; &lt;Bindings&gt; &lt;Binding name="Example" endpointName="HttpIn" hostHeader="www.example.com" /&gt; &lt;/Bindings&gt; &lt;/Site&gt; </code></pre> <p>When I enter www.example.com it goes to the correct web site in my role. However when I enter just example.com without the www then it goes to the default web. I tried the following and it didn't help:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Site name="Example" physicalDirectory="..\Example.WebUx"&gt; &lt;Bindings&gt; &lt;Binding name="Example" endpointName="HttpIn" hostHeader="www.example.com" /&gt; &lt;Binding name="Example" endpointName="HttpIn" hostHeader="example.com" /&gt; &lt;/Bindings&gt; &lt;/Site&gt; </code></pre> <p>I tried the following and it came up with an error message "Error 1 Found duplicate site elements defined with same virtual path 'Example/' for role Default.WebUx</p> <pre><code>&lt;Site name="Example" physicalDirectory="..\Example.WebUx"&gt; &lt;Bindings&gt; &lt;Binding name="Example" endpointName="HttpIn" hostHeader="www.example.com" /&gt; &lt;/Bindings&gt; &lt;/Site&gt; &lt;Site name="Example" physicalDirectory="..\Example.WebUx"&gt; &lt;Bindings&gt; &lt;Binding name="Example" endpointName="HttpIn" hostHeader="example.com" /&gt; &lt;/Bindings&gt; &lt;/Site&gt; </code></pre> <p>I tried just the following and it didn't work. When implemented this way both the www.example.com and example.com went to the default web.</p> <pre><code>&lt;Site name="Example" physicalDirectory="..\Example.WebUx"&gt; &lt;Bindings&gt; &lt;Binding name="Example" endpointName="HttpIn" hostHeader="example.com" /&gt; &lt;/Bindings&gt; &lt;/Site&gt; </code></pre> <p>I'm running out of ideas :-( Does anyone have experience of setting up the hostHeader so that it can accept both the www and non-www versions of my web sites. </p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>Here's some links that I also checked. Unfortunately they don't seem to help</p> <p><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg433110.aspx" rel="nofollow" title="link">Link 1</a></p> <p><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg557553.aspx#Sites" rel="nofollow" title="link 2">Link 2</a></p>
