IIS5 not showing ASP files, shows others

Hello,

Annoying problem on a server with IIS 5. [We have other
IIS 5 that show asp files just fine. I'm at a loss. ]

I can open htm, html, gif, jpg, all files except asp
files. The message when opening an asp file is:

"The page cannot be found...
blah blah blah
HTTP 404 - File not found"

I've looked everywhere. Permissions are okay with IUSR
and security since we can browse other files. The asp
files in question are NOT marked Hidden...

What can I do to make it render the asp files? Ideas?

Thank you,
Sharon

Turn off "show friendly HTTP errors" in Tools / Internet Options / Advanced,
reload the page, and tell us what the *real* error message is.

This does not exactly match your description of your problem, but it's worth
a try.

I had this problem one of my systems that has only yesterday, had XP
installed on it........just trying to remember how I fixed it....

AH!.......remem bered.....

I enabled Scripts and Executables (Low IIS Process since it's not going to
be connected to the net.....ever) and enabled the server extensions for the
domain itself.

Norton or other script blocking software, URLScan/IIS Lockdown without
ASP allowed, no script access on folder, many reasons possible.

Jeff, that was it! URLScan/IIS Lockdown was set to not allow ASP.
Whew!

Thanks to everyone for all your input! I found the referenced articles
very useful and went through all of them trying everything...

Problem resolved with the lockdown tool....

We are poised to migrate about 600 ASP sites from a single IIS5 server to a new pair of IIS6 servers. However, it appears that all files with includes like: <!-- #include virtual="../../includes/file.asp" --> will not work on IIS 6, it returns ASP 0126, include file not found. We have enabled parent paths, but I can't find any documentation that suggests that IIS 6 handles include directives differently than IIS 5.

Our webhost (www.usbusinessweb.net) had a W2K IIS5 server crash after a scheduled hard-boot occurred during a ms-security patch install overnight. They couldn't get the server working again so they transferred our site www.orbisoft.com to a new W2003 IIS6 server they set up. That was a week ago. Since that transfer, all of our ASPX pages that use Access2000 databases have stopped working.

Hi, I have an Access 2002 - 2003 database. I am using Access 2003. Whenever I link an image all it shows is the filename. Not the image. Other versions of Access can link the image just fine. The properties look the same whether I use XP or 2003 versions of Office. If I take an earlier version of Access and link the image, it puts the image. I can also see the image in 2003. If I link the image using 2003 it only shows the filename....
