There must be some kinda way out of here
said the joker to the thief.

Money Tree Systems

after installing the server extensions on the server they need to be configured for each web. you would do this by right clicking on the web in iis, choose tasks then configure server extensions. this needs to be done for each web; the inter and intranet.

after you've configured the extensions you'll notice that if you right click on a web and choose properties there will be a tab called server extensions, and a button for configuration for how to send e-mail. you'll need to enter the proper settings for you forms to work if you're looking at having the results sent by e-mail.

hope this helps.

"The document root of the web server where you are trying to install the server extensions already contains a disk-based web".

The internet web has it's server extensions already configured - I guess by one of my predecessors. When right clicking on that internet web, then All Tasks, I get other options than "configure". Would the fact that the internet & intranet web are in the same tree cause this problem? That is, internet path=c:\www2\web5, while intranet path=c:\www2\itguide. Does itguide need to be published in a different root directory?

absolutely. seperate the the two into two entirely different web sites. you'll love yourself for it in the long run.

this way manageablity and security won't be as problematic.

First I discovered that one cannot place a web server and InetPub in a common path to the drive root -- not if you need to have FrontPage Extensions work correctly.

Then I found out that the same applies to multiple web servers.

Because I started with two FP-generated webs they apparently carry with them the evidence of this history.

I am trying to set the two webs up as
D:\web1\myweb1 and D:\web2\myweb2 -- and this worked OK for web1\myweb1, which looks fine in MMC.

When I use MMC to set up myweb2 there is a message about detecting a web-based server, and an invitation to delete/rename the file
D:\web2\myweb2\_vti_pvt\services.cnf.

I tried to do this a couple of ways, (including first deleting web2 out of MMC -- but retaining it on the disk) and I get a message "Error Deleting File: Cannot delete services: Access is denied. Make sure that the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use."

I am logged in as the Administrator, and the file permissions for _vti_pvt\services.cnf are: 'Special Access (RWXDPO)'. Are there other permissions that supervene?

What do I have to do to run myweb2 in parallel with myweb1? Is it necessary to physically remove myweb2 and its folders from the drive D:\, delete the web-related folders/files, then return the remaining files to the drive?

Thanks in advance for any pointers on this...

When I configure extensions for webB, I get the same error message - "The document root of the web esrver where you are trying to install the server extensions already contain a disk-based web." But when I try to open the web site in front page it tells me that there are no server extensions installed. How do I fix this problem
