hi
In my windows server with XP OS i hav installed IISv6.1.
My problem is when i put .asp file in desktop or in wwwroot
of inetpub its gives a message windows cant open this file.
generally all thats required for asp file to run is IIS .and its already installed.
wht else do i need to run it?
Is it that the some version of IIS dont support ASP ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Plz. advice me..........................
tnx

You cannot see an asp file in the webrowser if u have it on your desktop, it has to be in the wwwroot. I know this statement might be stupid and i dont mean to be mean but u cannot double click and expect your asp file to open in a browser like and html file does, u need to run it through the browser url will be something like localhost/test.asp
hello once again
I hav put the file in wwwroot and tried to open it thr browser using
http://localhost.xyz.asp but still it is not running.
and one mor thing is that if asp is enabled in a machine then
it will show the file with asp icon like (...3.yellow wheel) . but in my case
case it is not showin.
should i try installing different version of IIS ??

the icon is just to show which program a particular file type is associated with. so if u right click on the file and choose properties, then on the general tab, where it says opens with u can change it to whatever application u want to open the file, i think the yellow wheel is visual studio, not too sure though :)
Try installing IIS 5.0
As far as i know IIS 5.0 is for Classic ASP...
did u find a way to run asp.. else u have a simple small tiny webserver to run asp...
if still looking do let me know.

you can save the asp file to wwwroot and then to run the file
like http://localhost/filename.asp

ASP cant works on your dasktop! it can works onley on your server online!

Now this is example of poor knowledge.
Any version of IIS will run ASP.
IIS 5.0 is extremly old.
