Hi,
(I've never used ASP before, but I have the idea that it's a server-side HTML pre-processor, like PHP.)
Our client wrote an .ASP page that is accessing our spatial database through a middleware application that I wrote.
He asked me to create a virtual directory in IIS 6.0 to expose the .ASP page, which I did. I can browse to the directory containing the .ASP file, but when i try to invoke it, i get a 404 error.
The machine hosting the .ASP file is a Windows Server 2003 machine. The service installed on it is not ASP, but ASP.NET. So, I changed the filename from .ASP to .ASPX. Now, a page comes up, but it reports lots of syntax errors in the code.
Is there a workaround for this, perhaps an "ASP compatibility mode", or perhaps the code needs to be upgraded to .NET?
Thanks in advance,
Herb
