Hi guys

I run WINDOWS 98 , use PWS (MUST I USE IIS with PWS? - it seems to be installed anyway) , and made a simple insert record tru Access mdb asp file.

Using Localhost - i am able to load a normal Html file

but then , when i load the ASP file - i get

Server Application Error

The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the processing of your request. Possible error could be the application is not registered correctly. Please contact the server administrator for assistan

(with the friendly thingy unchecked).  All my files with Asp react this way....

HELP!!

My Script below not sure if it will show - but anyways all my asp files behave this way , even my root localhost default.htm (created by Macromedia MX) too.

Additional info i get from my MTS LOG. I found only people asking for help but nobody with solutions? BTW I am using win 98 - PWS... I don't think IIS should be any issue

It's a pws configuration issue. Doesn't know about asp.dll.

You might want to chack out the FronPage news groups for pws problems.
