Blank page on http://localhost

[Setya]

Hi all,
I've got blank page when I type above link on my browser (IE 5.0) I also have HTTP 500 error when I view any ASP pages in my PC.

My PC is under Win98 SE and I use VI 6.0 to learn Web Development. I have FrontPage 2000 Server Extension installed and also PWS 4.0. It doesn't connect to outside world and purely standalone PC. Any ideas ?

Thanks

Setya

u must not having a default page setup.

amitlohia is right...you probably don't have a page like DEFAULT.HTM, INDEX.HTM, DEFAULT.ASP, or INDEX.ASP....and directory browsing has been disabled. Thus, PWS won't let you see anything inside the directory (a security measure to prevcent users from browsing your directories).

To solve this, go into PWS and then click on the "Advanced" icon, and then check the box that reads "Allow Directory Browsing". Close PWS and then enter

http://localhost

again and you should be able to see any and all files in your home directory.
