aspx displays by clicking on file but not through localhost

[Vance Collins]

I have just converted from Linux and Apache to MS 2000
running Visual Studio .NET on IIS 5.0. I have installed
the .NET Framework and the .NET SDK.

I have an extremely simple problem. I can view an aspx
file by double clicking on it, but I get a 500 error when
I type its name in the
browser. "http://localhost/firstasp.aspx." I am able to
get html and php pages to run from this server using
localhost. I added an application extension to the Default
Website in the IIS Administrator. I pointed it to
C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.432\aspnet_i sapi.dll
and used aspx as the extension of course.

Thank you in advance.

First see here. http://www.aspfaq.com/2109
Then, if you cannot get the error worked out, post your question in an
ASP.NET group. This is a "classic" ASP group. ASP.NET groups have "aspnet"
in their names, i.e. .dotnet.framework.aspnet.
