Can't connect to IIS site on network IP

Question

I've got a Server 2012 R2 box with IIS on it. I can't connect to the default website on the server's IP address. It stopped working after I disjoined one domain and joined another (not sure if this is related).

I can only connect to the site via localhost

Things I've checked

• The default website is bound to *:80. I've also tried binding it to the public IP only
• netsh show iplisten is empty (which should mean bind to all IPs)
• netstat -an shows IIS listening on 0.0.0.0:80
• I can telnet to localhost 80, but cannot telnet to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 80
• I can also telnet to hostname 80 where hostname resolves to an link-local IPv6 address
• I've checked the IP is correct (I'm RDPing to it)
• I've disabled the windows firewall

What could cause this?

Solution

Well, I didn't manage to figure it out so I just deployed a new server from scratch. Chock that one up to the strange books.

Have you performed an IIS Reset or rebooted the box?

@Kate yes to both

IIS is so weird. Did you flip back to the original Domain and see if it works? Also, were you using DNS or anything tied to the old domain?

The original domain was deleted so no can do. DNS is pointing at new domain, and I'm querying straight IP addresses so that shouldn't be a factor
