Topic: ASP in IE will not work! Posted: 19 July 2003 at 4:48pm |
|
When I try to open an ASP page in IE it treats it as though it is a download. It will not open it in the explorer. I have my PWS up and running and it is working fine for regular HTML over the network, but ASP won't run from my PWS. I can open, however, ASP files like the ones on this website with no problem. What's my problem? Any help is greatly appreciated.

You don't have Server Side Scripts enabled

In IE, go to Tools|Options. It's either in the Advanced or the Security tab.

It don't have anything to do with IE but with PWS... i know how to do it on IIS but not on PWS, your best bet is http://www.google.com search for PWS SETUP or somthing like that.....

Thank you for your responses but this is incredibly frustrating. I see nothing about server side scripts or the like in my menu system which I have spent almost 1 hour painstakeingly sifting through every tab, list, option, textbox, and checkbox. My IE will not read asp files from the local drive. I can read asp files on other servers online, so it can't be my IE. It has something to do with the way it is executing, or directing, something. I can't find any troubleshooting tips or FAQs about this particular problem, and in every instruction manual / page I have read through there is no mention of enabling server side scripts or doing anything at all except for building the page and having MS PWS installed and running. I don't understand whats wrong here. Ive been working on this for 5 days now. Ack.

are you opening the file from the "page" or from http://localhost ?
you cant open your ASP file like this: "c:\site\myfirstpage.asp"
you can with a HTML file, but not ASP
you have to open it thru the PWS am not sure if its localhost on PWS or just ISS, but put your ASP files into (i think) "c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\" then (if you have to) turn PWS on and then go to "http://localhost"
hope this helps

Try reinstalling PWS and make sure you ticked the box that installs asp...
