aspx thread: HELP! Server Config


Message #1 by marl@s... on Wed, 11 Dec 2002 19:41:01
Hi:

I can't get aspx to work on my server.

I'm running multiple sites under IIS, Windows 2000.
ASP is working fine for all sites but ASPX just returns an error saying:

"the directory (the site's root) cannot be accessed because it doesn't 
exist or due to security settings."
It's a definite .NET error so I know ASP.NET is running, it just refuses 
to see any of the directories for any of the sites.

www.watchthisstock.com/Test.aspx <<-- nothing but the word "TEST" in html
won't display.

What am I missing?

Two things to check:

(1) Did you install IIS before installing VS.NET? I know others have had
problems if they install VS.NET before installing IIS.

(2) You must have your website set to use integrated Windows authentication
in order to debug it using VS.NET. Is that where you are having a problem?

You may want to check the ACLs on the root folder also.

Is this server a PDC?

Mine is. There are some known problems using a PDC as a web server with .NET
related to using the ASPNET account -- see Q315158.

Cheers,

Helen

Make sure of the following...

1.) MDAC 2.7 must be installed before installing asp.net
2.) Install asp.net service packs 1 and 2
3.) Under directory security, give the asp_net user permissions
4.) In the machine.config file, under the 'processModel' section, set the
'userName' attribute to 'machine' and the 'password' attribute to
'AutoGenerate'

I think the guy is having problems getting asp.net running, not vs.net...
