Global.asa

Where should one put the file global.asa

I am using IIS, Windows 2000 Advanced Server

in the "wwwroot" folder.

You can also put one into any folder you defined as a "Web Application" thru the IIS Manager.

If I put "Global.asa" file into the folders I defined to be Web Folder through Internet service manager, which one of those "global.asa" files located in many web folder the IIS will use to manage (on application start) and (on session start)

my experience is with Personal web server which can deal only with one "Global.asa" as I think, so I don't know, can IIS deal with separate "Global.asa" for each web folder?

Thanks

You can have one global.asa per web application -- so IIS can handle multiple files. It uses the file found in the root folder of the web application, so if you have your default web site at D:\wwwroot\ and another web application at D:\MyApp\, or at D:\wwwroot\MyApp\ you can have a global.asa in each of these folders.
