salimh -> FPSE not working on IIS (3/16/2004 13:13:00)

Hi everybody,
this is my first post on this forum. I have a problem with fpse. I connected my old PIII 850 on my home lan and installed Windows 2003 Server. As i have a fixed IP, i use it as a web server. I installed IIS and FPSE, ASP, share point etc... I extended the FPSE to the virtual server of my web site and everything. But when i try to use a basic front page feature like the front page default guestbook, i receive the following well known message:
quote:

FrontPage Run-Time Component Page
You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.

This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.

Click the <Back> arrow to return to the previous page.

When i look in the virtual server properties, the fpse are said to be activated. I tried to reinstall the IIS + FPSE,but it still not works. What can i do more?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
best regards
salim

on Windows 2003 server you have to set up the email for forms




salimh -> RE: FPSE not working on IIS (3/16/2004 17:52:06)

Thank you. But you mean that if the mail isn't configured, all server extensions won't be working? Because even the counter isn't working.

Hi Salimh

What order did you install IIS? FP then IIS? or IIS then FP?

Are you running the pages from C:\Inetpub\wwwroot through the http://localhost/ in your web browser?

What other web server related software to you have installed on your machine.

In the Computer Management console, do you have the IIS Snap-in?

Have you set up DNS Name Resolution on the PC?

Sorry I had to come back at you with more questions, but I need to know that before I can give you an answer

I have installed both at the same time using the add/remove windows components in the control panel. I have xitami installed but not running, and anyway IIS itself is running well. Yes i have the the IIS Snap-in In the Computer Management console. I haven't set up DNS Name Resolution on the PC. And i run the pages from http://localIP of the pc.
thank you

Missed a question[8D], Are you running the files from C:\Inetpub\wwwroot through windows Explorer or are you running them through http://localhost/?




salimh -> RE: FPSE not working on IIS (3/17/2004 7:16:17)

yes i' sorry. but i updated my previous post.it is in it.

Lets see if I can explain this in plain english:

FrontPage Run-Time Component Page
You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.

This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.

Click the <Back> arrow to return to the previous page.

Generally means no FPSEs installed at all. It might also mean that they are corrupt

quote:

MS recommendations for installing IIS and the like is like so:

1. Install your favourite WYSIWYG editor, and of course they recommend FP
2. Enable DNS Name Resolution (Can be found through Help And Support)
3. Run a full install of IIS from the Add/Remove Windows Components control panel

It's all well and good doing it that way, but if you have other web server related software installed first, there is a chance that it will prevent IIS from running. E.G. You can't have Apache Web Server and IIS installed and running at the same time as they automatically listen on the same port.

Option 1: Remove all other web server related software completely, then re-install IIS

quote:

I have xitami installed but not running, and anyway IIS itself is running well

Xitami???? Never heard of it. Is it running through the IIS snap-in or through the Services Console. ALso check in the process section of Windows Task Manager for inetinfo.exe and see if it's there.

quote:

Yes i have the the IIS Snap-in In the Computer Management console.

That's a good sign

quote:

I haven't set up DNS Name Resolution on the PC.

Recommended but not needed. I wouldn't enable it at the mo

quote:

And i run the pages from http://localIP of the pc.

Local IP??? it can be any of the following:

http://127.0.0.1 (Localhost)
http://192.168.XXX.XXX (For Workgroups)
http://144.177.XXX.XXX (Not all domains, but generally)
http://169.254.XXX.XXX (Automatic Private Address)

They are just a select few. Make sure you enter http://localhost/

Option 2: Last Resort - Backup all info on the PC, and reformat it. Then install FP, then IIS. See if it works then

HTH
