    Help with ASP on Win2K server

    Our web server crashed and I had to move all web sites to backup server.
    Installed Internet service and it appears to work OK on html files, but ASP
    files are not functioning - what is wrong? I have lost so many brain cells
    that I need a fresh mind to see the obvisous.

    Did I miss installing something?

    Thanks
    Tom

    At the moment, you need a psychic. Describe "not functioning" for us
    ordinary folk, please.

      1. On the server go to Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Internet
      Services Manager.
      2. Expand the server and right click on one of the sites giving you
      problems and select properties.
      3. Select the Home Directory tab and make sure you have an application
      running in the Applications Settings section. If not, click the create
      button. Optionally change "Default Application" to something signifcant
      to you.

      If the application was not initiated that was most likely your problem.
      Otherwise you'll have to provide a little more detail.

        Sorry - ASP pages were not being served up.

        I did resolve the problem - in the IWAM password and KB 255770

        Thanks, Tom

          I did resolve the problem - a result of the IWAM password and KB 255770
          problem that others have posted here.

          Thanks, Tom
