Asp half working on IIS - 6/29/2004 15:57:43   
Probably a total noob Q, but I'm trying to setup a new site on an IIS server (one that has had urlscan installed).

Anyways, the previous sites hosted didn't use ASP. Now I need to get ASP working on this site. The App Mappings is setup correctly (pointing to asp.dll rather than 404.dll) however any time I try to load an asp page, I get a 404.

Here's the odd part, default.asp runs fine if I don't give the name of the file itself.

URL that works: http://example.com/
URL that 404's: http://example.com/default.asp

But I've added a tag to prove that default.asp is the script being executed when no page is specified in the url.

So when not specifying a page, just a directory, the ASP script executes correctly. When I specify an ASP script, I get a 404 message.

Also worth noting, HTM and TXT files within the same site/folder are returned correctly. So everything is working, paths are setup correctly, etc...

Very odd.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Spooky, thanks for the link.

Turns out my problem was URLScan. It was blocking requests to .asp pages. So when the requested URL didn't contain ".asp", the script executed as expected.

So removing the .asp restriction from the URLScan INI fixed the problem.

Thanks,
