    HTTP error 404 when calling ASP page.

    I have 2 sites on my Windows Server 2003/ISA/IIS machine.
    One of the sites works fine and has 'default.htm' for the
    default document. The other site returns an 'HTTP error
    404' and has a 'default.asp' for the default document.
    Aside from that they appear to be configured the same.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Brian

      Turn off 'show friendly http errors' in Tools / Internet Options / Advanced.
      Or, view the page in Netscape / Firebird / Mozilla / Opera.

          Aaron,
          Thanks for your reply, however, I tried your suggestion
          with no success.
          More specifically, the error reads "File or directory not
          found". However, I can clearly browse to it from Windows
          Explorer.

          Brian

              Do you have ASP enabled? I know that in IIS 6, you have to enable something
              before any ASP pages will execute. As I have yet to experience IIS 6, I
              cannot comment on where this setting is or what it may be called. But, this
              comes up pretty often in m.p.inetserver. iis, I believe, so you may find a
              PAQ in there with the answer.

                  Oh, ok. Are you typing "C:\path\file.a sp" into your browser? Don't do
                  that! http://localhost/file.asp

                  If that's not the issue, you're going to have to provide more information
                  (unless you want random guesses).
