Hi,
I've just recently installed a windows 2003 server.
From what I understand, .asp pages should work as soon as I install IIS (6.0)! But they don't show when people surf to [mydomain.com...]

"The page cannot be found" is what shows..

Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? perhaps the asp functions are not activated yet?

Thanks!
//Tommy

I know next to nothing about ASP's peculiarities, but a 404 error usually results from a filename/path problem.

Can you serve up HTML pages?

Hi,

"The page cannot be found" would suggest that the server can't find the page to display not a problem with the asp. The fact that the server displays something and not a server not found error means at least IIS is working.

First thing to check is that in your IIS Admin is your home directory set to the folder with your website in it?

Next is the file you are trying to display in that folder?

Also is your DNS set up correctly so [domain.com...] is the same as [domain.com,...] they can sometimes not be as default.
