I just setup a new 2012 Server, added IIS role with ASP, copied the forum folder to the server, pointed the default web site to the forum folder. When I open a web browser and go to localhost I get this error message :

The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.

I renamed the web.config file to web.config.old and then was able to browse the site, and start the installation. However when trying to create a new Access database connection I receive the following error:

http://localhost/forum_s/error.png - Error Error

An Error Occurred Connecting to the Database

Error details:-
ADODB.Connection
Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.

The wwForum.mdb file is there

The first error means that you do not have the IIS Rewrite Module installed on your server and therefore you can not use the rewrite rules for SEO Friendly URL's. You should either remove the web.config file or install the IIS Rewrite Module from the page below:-
http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite" rel="nofollow -
http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite

The second issue relating to the Access database. Access is not support by default under IIS 7 and above. For Access to work you need to change the applications pools in IIS and change 'Enable 32-Bit Applications' to 'True'.

You may also in addition need to give full permissions to the IUSR group on the Windows\Temp folder in order for Access databases to run in IIS.

Bruce, you da man, thanksfor the reply. That was what I needed to know; I didn't find that in any of the FAQ/knowledgebase - except the 32-bit info. Anyhow, it is working!
