Hi,
Apparently, I have a permissions issue. I am logged in as administrator,
and my C: drive is accessible. Under the "Security" tab for Properties
for Inetpub, for my "Internet Guest Account," the "Allow" boxes
for [read & execute],[list folder contents], and [Read] are checked
- BUT they are greyed out - I cannot clear them - and nothing else
is checked.
Now that I look further, the same thing is the case for every folder
in the root that I examined.
I'm a newbie starting up with ASP.NET,
and I'm getting off to a wonderful start
- and when I tell you "wonderful" I'm being sarcastic.
My OS is Win 2000 SP4.
I've gotten IIS installed, along with the .NET framework.
I have the .NET Framework 1.1 configuration tool in Administrative tools,
along with the Wizards. I have opened the configuration tool,
but I have no idea as to what I'm looking at.
My code is about as simple as it can get:
===============================================
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<script runat="server">
void page_load(object obj, EventArgs e)
{ lblMessage.Text = "Hello World";
}
</script>
<html><body>
<asp:Label id="lblMessage" runat="server"/>
</body></html>
===============================================
... right from the book.
I put the file into my webroot directory:
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\
... and this URL into the IE6 address bar:
http://localhost/HelloWorld01.aspx
When I hit "GO" I get the following error message:
================================================== =================
Server Error in '/' Application.

BEFORE anyone asks, I cleaned out the cash for the browser ...
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
(for IE6)
... and it still doesn't work.
So this is going just "wonderfully". :-(
Does anyone know what I can do to solve this permissions issue?
Thanks In Advance!
