I set up the IIS in Winxp Pro and it runs fine. The asp code works and it seems to be working fine but when I load a page that calls the Access database it says page cannot be displayed. I know the page works because it works on a win98 PWS machine no prob. Has anyone set this up in XP Pro before?

Thanks

Hi there,

Sounds like a permissions issue to me. Did you format your disk using NTFS??

First, look at my last post in this thread to discover how to disable "friendly error messages" on both the browser and the server.

Then run the page again. I think you'll see an error related to permissions. Check out this thread to see how you can provide enough permissions to the IUSR account.

If that doesn't help, please post the full error details.

Cheers,

Imar
