Enabling admin interface questions

[Mark B]

Hello, I am working through understanding how to view the admin / console pages and have been reviewing https://www.pagespeedguide.com/documentation/admin/enabling. Below is the default config that has the admin interface URLs set with local only URLs-  When I am on the local server where IISpeed 2.0.4 is installed, I am not sure where these pages are located on our server. When I enter http://localhost/pagespeed_console for example, it generates a 404 error in browser. Are there actual admin / console page files that need to be installed in a web directory for this to work? Any additional information would be appreciated to point me in the right direction. Thanks- Mark

Hi, thanks for the reply, that admin page URL is commented out in the default config file. In general, all URLs I try generate a 404:

Requested URL   http://localhost:80/pagespeed_console

Physical Path   C:\inetpub\wwwroot\pagespeed_console

because these files do not exist in the localhost wwwroot dir.

I'm not sure if I am missing something simple, but I've simply installed the module, it seems to work ok except the console / admin pages. The only information I can find is around calling out enabling the URLs in the config file- not sure if there is something else to install, etc.

Do you have an iispeed.config in your web root directory?

Mine has this entry:

IISpeed MessagesPath /iispeed_message

Nothing else to install unless you want to create a (LoadFromFile) cache folder, which is just creating a folder and a matching ini entry.
