I am running Windows XP SP2 with all the updates

I am running IIS 5.1 with all the updates

I configured IIS with all of these on and using virtual directory:
Script source access
Read
Write
Directory Browsing
Log visits
Index this resource

I have Execute Permissions to Scripts and Executable
I have Application Protection to Medium

I can display HTML pages in IE 6 but not ASP pages

I have researched the internet and have not found a solution. I appreciate some help.

re: Windows XP, IIS 5.1, ASP pages not loading


What error do you get? Are you running them localhost? Are both files in the root directory?

re: Windows XP, IIS 5.1, ASP pages not loading


I do not get any error message, I just have a blank page. I am running the pages at localhost.

The files are in a subdirectory under wwwroot and I have created a virtual directory.

Where do I find the log files for IIS so I can check there for any error message?

The first thing I am loading is:

<%@ LANGUAGE=VBscript %>

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Allied Insurance Company (MAIN000)</TITLE>
<base=_blank></base=_blank>
<LINK HREF="standard.css" REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css">
</HEAD>
<body>
<FRAMESET ROWS="20%,70%,10%" BORDERCOLOR=BLUE>
<!-- Display Company Name & Address -->
<FRAME SRC="main001.asp" NAME=Top SCROLLING=NO MARGINHEIGHT=0 NORESIZE target="Top">
<!-- Display Main Menu HyperLinks -->
<FRAME SRC="main002.asp" NAME=Middle SCROLLING=NO MARGINHEIGHT=0 NORESIZE target="Middle">
<!-- Display Company e-Mail Information -->
<FRAME SRC="main003.asp" NAME=Bottom MARGINHEIGHT=0 target="Bottom">
</FRAMESET>
</body>
</HTML>

which is all HTML scripting in an ASP file. The other items loading are all HTML data.

I am also running Norton Internet Security 2007. I tried turning this off with nothing happening so I do not think that is the problem.

I just noticed the difference in IIS versions you quote, in IIS 6 you have to allow asp pages in the web extensions in IIS. HTH.

re: Windows XP, IIS 5.1, ASP pages not loading


Okay, I found some code that used response.write statments and that works so ASP seems to be working. What I do not understand is that I have some code that is straight HTML code and that will not work I just get blank pages.

I am not using .NET framework so I do not know if that really matters, but in case it does I have the latest updates as that was loaded yesterdsay. I will have to look that up tomorrow as I am not on that system right now.

This code worked on W2000 IIS just fine and nothing has changed so I am not sure why the problems. I am trying to refresh my skills on web publishing for a job I am trying to get so I need this ASAP. Thanks for helping.

re: Windows XP, IIS 5.1, ASP pages not loading


I have .Net versions: 1.1, 2.0, and 3.0 installed including relevant hotfixes. Since I have 3.0 should I remove 1.1 and 2.0?

re: Windows XP, IIS 5.1, ASP pages not loading


Okay, I changed all my beginning pages to HTML to see if it had anything to do with ASP extenstions and it did not. The HTML do not display and I do not get a message on the screen just a blank page. I checked the logs and I get:

#Fields: time c-ip cs-method cs-uri-stem sc-status
14:11:29 127.0.0.1 GET /cmps350/default.htm 200
14:11:29 127.0.0.1 GET /cmps350/Main000.htm 200
14:11:29 127.0.0.1 GET /cmps350/standard.css 200

SO this appears to be okay but not working. Any suggestions?
