Can Display html but not ASP pages.

[logout151]

I just started working with ASP's, and I am having a problem getting them working.

I get this error 'internal server error 500' whenever I try to load up any ASP page, including localstart.asp, a page that should load without a problem. However, if I change the extension to .html on any ASP page I created, I can see the html page, of course without the asp stuff.

I did not have this problem when I first load IIS, (yesterday). The problem seems to have started when I loaded Frontpage 98. I uninstalled IIS and FP and then reinstalled IIS and still can not serve up a page.

Anybody have any ideas?

Plenty of ideas, what OS are you running?

Here's a thought: go to your iis managment console; right click on the web, do a properties and then make sure that "front page web" is checked.

check if you have the <% %> at the beginning of your *.ASP page. QUOTE OF THE DAY
