Asp Pages "not found", but asp.net pages fine

I moved my whole project from my WinXP machine, to my Win2k3 machine on which i also installed vs2003 pro. (IIS 6)

My project is a mix of asp.net and older html and asp pages.

The asp.net pages work just fine, but everywhere where there's asp pages, one get an error "page not found"

I verified that the asp pages are indeed includd in my project. Enable anonymous access, and assigned read, write, etc permissions in IIS.


Any ideas?

I'm guessing is it because the directory locations have all changed ? :ehh:

Nope, just copied to a different location, which cannot be the problem as I did this lots of times between different computers. Just create the virtual directory in IIS and you're set.

The difference this time is the site was moved to a windows 2003 server with IIS6, as opposed to WinXP with IIS 5 in the past.

Not a single file inside the application directory was moved.

What I did notice after opening the project for the first time in VS (2003) was that all the asp file were excluded from the project. I included them one by one.

Maybe start a new project and copy the code and saving each page ; might work, or could you use server.MapPath to fix the problem or try using absolute paths instead or relative? just a few ideas for you :ehh:

Thanks for the try Rabbid,

However the problem was twofold.

First, iis6 got asp disabled by default. By enabling it, I was nearly there. All Asp pages in my root directory worked, but not those further into the directory tree.

To fix that, I had to change some setting..uuh..forgot now...just got home.

If anyone get this problem too, let me know, and I'll check how i did it.

kewl well glad you got it sorted soz I wasn't any help like :blush:

Thanks for the try dude. More than I can say. Find myself always "too busy" to answer post, while I post for help all the time. Guess you can call me a self confessed pr!ck.

Dont understand your Q M. I said I use IIS, and know of no other way hosting a site in iis using virtual directories. I'll post what I did tomorrow.

Well I personally find that by helping out on forums, I learn more though helping others then if by trying to follow tutorials, so really by trying to help you; your really helping me. :bigyello:
