Our host changed to a new IIS 6 server and when our site was moved some forum functions were broken (sitenews.asp & cal.asp are the main ones).
The forum is setup thusly (Snitz Forum 3.4.04): Website files (read permissions).......=> root Database(s) (Modify permissions).......=> root\_private Snitz forum files (read permissions)...=> root\msgbrd2
Is this because of the new security instituted in IIS6? Is there a work around or fix?
TIA

Thats a SHNforum.com forum you are using? Try Server-hacks one forum, there must be more people with a iis6 host ncl the sitenews and cal. |

What line is causing the problem? I've been playing with a ServerHacker forum (v9 Beta) and regardless of it being an SHN forum or one you modified your self, I've found that MS removed a few components from IIS6 that were in IIS5. (Found this out when I got some odd errors on one of my forums). |

Its one of the includes in sitenews, I can't find the post in SHN anymore about this. If the host turns on VbScripts the page will start.
The SHN version Shakespeare is using is NOT V9 but mutch older. So stop looking there. |

It's a V8 forum his error is this
Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0126'
Include file not found
/MsgBoard2/include/res_menu.asp, line 1
The include file 'MsgBoard2/inc_func_member.asp' was not found.
Have you checked that all the files have been uploaded? |

Here's the error that appears when the cal and sitenews are attempted to be accessed:
The page cannot be displayed There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please try the following:
Open the www.fpqonline.com home page, and then look for links to the information you want. Click the Refresh button, or try again later.
Click Search to look for information on the Internet. You can also see a list of related sites.
HTTP 500 - Internal server error Internet Explorer
Excuse me for not knowing, what is SHN? I have not modified any files, though I did not setup the forum for the site. The site worked fine on the old server and the only change from old server to new server was the server, all the site files were verified from my backup. I'll contact our host to see if VBScripts are supported and enabled.
Thanks!

SHN just refers to the ServerHacker's version of Snitz.
As for the errors, please turn off simple error messages so we can see what line is throwing the error. If (as I suspect) its the page count portion of the code, and you're using an older version of the sitenews, it could be that the component is missing. The exact details of the error will help with this.
(When they released IIS6 not all the components that were in IIS5 were included.) |

I think I found the issue. The new IIS 6 apparently does not allow the '../' command (an attempt to tighten security is the CW). Three of the forum files were trying to point to other includes using this code. After eliminating the code and and moving a few files to the Msgbrd2 folder from the include folder, sitenews.asp and the calendar function (cal.asp) seem to be working again.
Thanks again for your input and help!
