asp problems with iis 5

[cactus1000]

We're in the process of upgrading from IIS 4 to IIS 5. For some reason, asp code that worked perfectly fine in IIS 4 no longer works.

Has anyone has problems with pre-existing asp code when switching to IIS 5?

(if so, I can give more detail as to exactly what is not working).

I am having a similar problem with running IIS5 on Win2k Server. I have written ASP sites on my laptop running IIS5.1 and all is well. However when I try and run against IIS5 I recieve "Page not found" errors.

The server running IIS5 also runs Crystal Enterprise which is a web based reporting platform - strange thing is it runs CSP (a variant of ASP) and runs fine.

I'm very much confused on this one.

Have you checked your permissions to run ASP code?

Winnt\system32\inetsrv requires everyone to have Change to this directory to run ASP code.

Also make sure you have all the includes that you require

Don't mean to be hi-jacking your original post cactus100...

I've just checked my inetsrv directory and have now applied the correct security rights. The problem still persists.

One thing I have noticed is that in the properties for "Internet Information Services" under the

http://WWW Master

Services then the Home Directory that the App Mappings appear to be somewhat confused.

Having looked at what DLL's are associated with which DLL's it appears all my ASP is under 404.DLL which doesn't seem quite right. Having looked on an IIS5.1 machine all ASP is associated with ASP.Dll - I've tried making this change but to no avail.

Any more ideas?

Incidentally the ASP being used is a simple ASP file with some text in it, and thats it. Works fine under IIS5.1.

Help is much appreciated!

After exhausting all other possibilities (permissions, include files, etc.) I finally discovered that my test database (Access) was corrupted.

That was all it was.

Thanks to everyone, though!
