Page can’t be displayed in Internet Explorer when accessing MeetingBooster. What should I do?

Screening Procedure: When entering URL for MeetingBooster application in IE, an error message is displayed stating “This page can’t be displayed”.

Page can't be displayed IE MB

Solution:

This error occurs in IE when a specific server IP address has been stated within the URL and the IP address of that server has since changed.
Ensure that in web.config file, the PublicServerUrl value is set to http://<Servername>/MeetingBooster where <Servername> is the name of the server containing MeetingBooster on it – e.g. http://WIN-C8MN6HIDSPI/MeetingBooster. This will ensure that the URL will always access MeetingBooster correctly as the server name will not change even if its IP address changes.
Note: You can also set the PublicServerUrl to http://localhost/MeetingBooster if you only want to access MeetingBooster locally on the same server/machine it has been installed on. Ensure the following line is present in Host file: 127.0.0.1 localhost (This should not be necessary – a DNS server always returns 127.0.0.1 for localhost)
