configuring ASP on IIS

[Vinoth]

Hi all

In my computer Html pages works well on IIS, but ASP does not....

what is the actual error it is?

[Victor]

Check to see if your IIS is running properly.
on the command prompt type "iisreset" and hit enter. If it restarts
then IIS is good otherwise look into installing/repair your IIS by
going to Control Panel, Add/remove and then add/remove windows
components

When you say it doesn't when you run an ASP page what actually you did
you to run your page? i mean i am trying to understand what kind of
error did you get when you try to run what... may be you have forgotten
to create webproject in IIS that could be one of the problems too. So
just put few lines what you did.

Hi Raj

My HTML files are OK...
But only problem is with ASP files...

I have designed many web pages in asp / asp.net technology in past one
year...

But this error raised just in few days before...

hi Vinoth,

Please confirm the error was in one of the line like
"server.createobject()" statement and most probably this may be a
component base error like not registered perfectly, not give proper a
security level etc....If the error generated because of a component, U
want to check the issues memtioned above and also tha compatibility of
this component in asp pages

hi,
I found some support of microsoft about this error.Try that from
following link.

Vinoth,

This is strictly speaking an ASP.NET group, so most people are assuming
you mean .NET when you say asp. That said, 500 internal server error is
the standard message you get when you have a script error, and detailed
error messages are turned off. In IIS, r-click properties on your web
and choose home directory, configuration, debugging.

You can also verify that it is not an IIS problem by simply renaming
one of your .html pages as .asp and checking that it still renders.

[Victor]

To view HTML pages you dont need IIS, just IE is enought. But for ASP
or ASP.net u need IIS.
I bet that is the problem with IIS, FYI IIS cannot be installed on XP
Home.
As sean suggested, rename any html file to .asp and see if IIS renders
it. Otherwise it is problem with IIS installation. Because IISReset
Should work without any error.

if you have XP home addition installed on ur machine then u cannot install
IIS, but u have an alternative to that.
it is web matrix which works like IIS on winxp home addtion and can be
downloaded from microsoft site for free

happy coding

Hi all..........

Thanks for your responses.........

Now everything is OK after reinstalling IIS on XP professional, and
configuring asp.net on IIS by giving this command
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50215\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

But, before that IIS does not render asp/asp.net etc....
Thanks a lot....

Best Regards
Vinoth
