Folk,
I recenly reacquired an XP Pro laptop, WinBook J4, 1G RAM, 3G Intel CPU, 60G HD. When I had such a box before - over a year ago - I had no problem setting up IIS to serve web pages on a development box, i.e., not a public server.
However, this time around, IIS will not serve HTMLK pages. I can generate pages via PHP, but static HTML does not work.
If I try to access the root web, e.g., or I get an ASP error message, to wit,
Active Server Pages, ASP 0134 (0x80004005)
The object has an invalid ProgID of 'MSWC.MyInfo'.
//global.asa, line 1.
If I try to access a sub-web page, e.g., where {server} can be either localhost or machinename, the operation times out. Firefox provides this message
The operation timed out when attempting to contact after about ninety seconds, but IE 6.x either provides error message
Cannot find server or DNS Error
or else it delivers a blank page and the mouse cursor shows a background task state when over the title bar of IE. In either of the IE cases, the time is about five minutes.
In either browser, if I run a php page - it has only the <head>, <Title>, <body> and <html> standard HTML tags - it will eventually run to completion, but again the time is about five minutes.
I'm at a total loss to explain the delays or the failure to render standard HTML. I've checked around the web as well as here at Tek-Tips for IIS slowdowns on XP, but nothing I've found seems to apply . . . and I've tried a bunch of cures over the last several days <sigh />.
Can any of you provide any insight(s) as to the cause of this slow down/failure in IIS? Please? (I think, from what I've read, that it's IIS v5.1, but could be wrong on that one.)
Make a good day . . .
