hi all, After changing a few things (cosmetics) on the sharepoint team site as the administrator of the site, to my surpirse the sharepoint site cannot be found on client computers (the URL throws a error 404 when visited, so i tried to access the server itself, but it can't be found also. so i tried a restart of the machine, and then i was presented with this error Can anyone help?

Hi , Work From the server first . Let me know if you have a Host header for the site . Try to open the site with the port # . Browse it from IIS . If the issue is with the host header and you have server 2008 OS - then disable the loop back adaptor link given below http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896861 if you are getting 404 then check whether there is any root site created when the web application was created i suppose the error must be page not found . ____________________________________________________________ Regards - Sushant Khambekar - MCTS Please Mark As Answer if my post solves your problem or Vote As Helpful if a post has been helpful for you.
