This is the first posts for my newly create blog which is based on Windows Azure Virtual machine. It is very awesome. I can easily RDP to VM and control everything.

I choose the BlogEngine.NET as my blog application. I have these reasons:

  • It is based on .NET. I am a .NET programmer. however I work on the System Center on most of my working time
  • It has many widgets and themed. However, after a quick search. I haven't find the good theme I am looking for. I am wonder to find a theme which have the 1280 full width size and there column.
  • I can do my own customization.

Now, get start, In BlogEngine wiki, there is quick setting steps. But I think it is a little out of date.

because of my blog is based on the VM with Windows server 2012, So the IIS version is IIS8. Here is the steps.

  1. Download the BlogEnginee.NET web zip package
  2. unzip
  3. Add application in IIS
  4. add IIS_IUSRS to the folder security. refer this page.
  5. Install the WCF service HTTP-Activation. refer this stackoverflow page. In this steps, if you search the IIS error page info, many solution are based on the IIS7 which is quite different from IIS 8 on WS2012. On IIS7, you can easily to run the command "aspnet_regiis.exe -iru" to fix this issue.
  6. Then, the everything will be fine. You can browse the page now.
  7. Wow
