IIS config help - 3/3/2004 0:05:08   
I am running XP pro. I have installed IIS and am lost trying to configure it to process .asp files that I have created with FrontPage2002 (Office XP). I am unable to view http://localhost/iisHelp/ and recieve "This page cannot be displayed" error message with Cannot find server or DNS Error
message at the bottom. I have tried to reinstall IIS component couple times. Tried restarting IIS from "Computer Management". What am I missing?

Have you run http://localhost/iisstart.asp ? That normally helps to run IIS for the first time.

You must be an administrator user on the computer when you install IIS, normally you would be unless you have multiple user accounts.

You should be installing IIS from the Add-Remove programs, Add-Remove windows components.

Make sure you have disabled any antivirus script blocking and firewall software during the installation.

When you reboot after installation, you should find the WWW service is running. Check in the Services applet of Administrative Tools.

If you continue to have problems, in IE open Tools - Internet Options - Advanced Options and uncheck the "show friendly http errors" setting, you may get some more detailed information on the problem you're having.
