After moving our ASP application from a MS2000 (local) to XP-pro it fails to execute the ASP code. What is missing or just not hooked on the XP local host????

Hi Tom,

Are you getting an error? If yes, what is it?

You need Windows XP professional to run ASP, because Windows XP Professional comes with IIS (web server). Have you installed IIS on the Windows XP (it's not installed by default)?

Thanks Paul for your reply.
We have IIS fully installed. The error I am getting is simply that as we move from Index.html to the first asp program (log in screen) the application code itself appear in place of the login screen.
We were thinking this is a XP problem because this application runs under the former test machine running 2000. We just recently loaded a new test server with the aplication which is under XP Pro.
I just feel that I am ovelooking a hook someplace in XP
Again thanks
Tom

Hi Tom,

Please type http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 in your browser and let me know what comes up?

Hi Tom,

I think IIS and/or XP were not properly isntalled and something got corrupted. The easiest thing to do is to test your web application from another XP machine and if it is OK then, you'll know that the problem is in your OS.

Yeah since you just did a new install, why not try it again. It does not sound like an ASP problem, but a problem with IIS.

Raven
Thank for your interest.

We are finding that XP is all client. It will support .NET, with some of the support services put back in IIS. Also the browser has to be tweeked on the security stops. In other words just plain ASP and XP are not friendly without a lot of IIS work to make it a server. We are continuing in that direction and when we make it we will let you know.

Raven and Paul again thank you
Tom

things that might be worth checking.

1) browser compatibility: using Firefox, for instance will display the same error you are getting but using IE works fine.

2)(for win2k3 server) You have to enable the ASP.NET in the Web Server Extensions list
From Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> double click IIS Manager.
Go to the Web Service Extensions tab, click Active Server Pages, then press the "Allow" button on the left.

3) (common problem) if you installed IIS after the .Net framework, you may need to run ASP.NET script mapping tool (Aspnet_regiis.exe). More on that here:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325093/

and here:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;306005

4) permissions may be incorrectly set on file/directories

Zort - I thought ASP would be activated by default?
Do you really have to manually activate it like that on all installations?

ASP.NET is not enabled by default on Windows 2003 Server. You have to do that manually. The reason ASP.NET is not enabled by default is to enhance the Windows 2003 server security.

That is strange Smile
If a MS server isn't running ASP.Net, I'd have to wonder what they are running!

99% of people will turn on ASP.Net anyway, so its a weird move by MS.
