This page can’t be displayed in IIS
<p><br>
so im pretty new to webdev.  im trying to build a small demo project for my boss as a proof of concept.  i have built the site in VS2015 and it runs/works within the VS webhost for debugging.  im now trying to more it over to a server that was set up for this. <br>
here are the steps i have taken: <br>
1.) IIS is installed and i can see the default page.<br>
2.) i have validated that the iis user can access the physical path.<br>
3.) i have set up anonymous auth. <br>
4.) i have enabled directory browsing<br>
<br>
here is where i start to encounter issues. when open the a browser and navigate to the address or right click the browse website option from iis manager i get <em>"this page cannot be displayed"</em>  i have looked up a couple solutions and none had worked.  the main one that was hoping for any forward progress was to go into: <br>
<strong>internet option menu-> advanced  tab-> 'browsing' in the setting box -> uncheck "show friendly http error messages"</strong>  <br>
<br>
even with this option unchecked, im still seeing <em>"this page cannot be displayed"</em>. there was no other feedback or solutions for if the page continues to display the error.  i have tried restarting both the iis browser and the physical server all with no changes.  im hoping that someone has had this issue before and the solution is something straight forward and im missing it simply because im still new.</p>
