I'm yet another newbie. I've downloaded and installed the v3.4.03 on a Windows XP Pro machine. This box will only be used on a LAN, not over the internet. I've installed IIS, and have confirmed it's running. I can display an index page by typing "http://localhost/" or "http://localhost/index.htm". I have put a basic, asp file in the same folder as the index.htm file. This ASP file will only say "Hello World". Here is the text of that file.
<html>
<head>
<title>My First ASP Page</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="white" text="black">
<%
Dim strMessage
strMessage = "Hello World"
Response.Write (strMessage)
Response.Write ("<br>")
%>
</body>
</html>
This file will not display. I get the "The page cannot be display", error 500 internal error.
I'm using the access database and have uncommented the
"strDBType = "access"
"strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cdiforum.mdb" '## MS Access 2000"
I've edited this file to account for my local setup.
Can someone help me?

| Check the permissions on your db and directory. Also turn off HTTP friendly Error Messages and it will be easier to pinpoint your error. |

If you have Norton Antivirus, turn off Norton Script Blocking and restart your computer, then try again.

Thank Kat, I did that and got the following.
"Server Application Error
The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance."
The event viewer shows: "The server failed to load application '/LM/W3SVC/1/ROOT'. The error was 'Server execution failed"
The permissions here are not like on NT 4.0. While this PC is on a LAN, it's not part of a domain. I don't see where to set the permissions on the file. I have looked in the IIS manger and have set it there to read and write. But being that I have administrative rights on the box, I'd think at I would have sufficient rights.
Doug: Thanks for you response, I don't have any antivirus running yet at all. |

Setting file permissions are basically the same as on NT, right click the file or directory and select Sharing and Security
You may first need to disable Simple File Sharing
1) Click Start | My Computer | Tools | Folder Options | View.
2) Scroll to the bottom of the list of advanced settings and un-check Use Simple File Sharing (Recommended).
3) Click OK. |
