Issue run localhost program from a domain

Server operating system version

Windows Server 2022 Standard

Plesk version and microupdate number

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.76 Update #6 Web Host Edition

Hello.

Pretty new to Plesk and i have followed many tutorials online but i cant seem to figure out how to do the following.

I'm running Plesk on a windows server.

I have installed on the server Scriptcase running on http://127.0.0.1:8092/ and i want to be able to use a domain name from any other PC to access this program without having to use RDP, so for example www.mydomain.co.uk when clicked from any PC would in fact point to http://127.0.0.1:8092/

not even sure if this is possible.

I don't have a windows server with plesk set up at the moment and too lazy to set it up but you would need to RDP to the server, open IIS Manager, select the site in question you want to use and double click on URL Rewrite. Then add a rule > reverse proxy, follow the wizard to add http://127.0.0.1:8092 as the inbound rule and enable SSL offloading for HTTPS. That's pretty much the gist of it.

thank you i have tried that and when i visit my domain name from my client PC it is trying to load http://127.0.0.1:8092/ on the local machine and not my plesk server. in plesk i set the domain as a forward and also in IIS.

Update, now working i found a small error when i created the rule in IIS it automatically adds https:// so it was added twice.

thank you.
