Newbe Needs Help

[zumie]

I am trying to learn asp on a w2k server and when I access a local asp page the asp script is ignored. But when I publish the page to another server it works fine.

IIs setup problem ?

Thanks for any help. MSB

Hi, you need to install frontpage extensions on your server. To do this, goto the IIS Management Console and right-click your server. You will see *all tasks* and *new*. I believe it is under *all tasks* you will see install frontpage extensions. --

Thanks Archon100, I went to the Management Console, right-clicked the server, went to *all tasks* and was presented with one option - &quot;Check Server Extensions&quot;.

Looks like FP extensions are already installed? MSB

Ok, when you say the asp script is 'ignored', does it not run? Prompt you to download? Give an error? --

Archon100, I found my mistake and feel kinda &quot;dah&quot; I was loading the page using the path C:\dirname\dirname\file.asp.

I needed to go through IIS by loading the page with

http://localhost/etc.

etc.

Thanks for your trouble, I won't do _that_ again. MSB
