ASP in a .html file under .net 4.0 - iis-7

I'm updating a site from asp.net 2.0 to asp.net 4.0.
I'm running IIS 7.0.
If I create test.asp and browse to it it works.
If I rename the file test.html it will not parse the asp.
I need html to be parsed as asp because of the CMS we use.
Relevant code from test.html:
<%
Response.Write ("The time on the server is: " & Time())
%>
I think my trouble comes from the way .net 4.0 handles requests.
How do I get IIS to parse html as asp?

You will need to associate the same DLL that currently handles your .asp pages to also handle your .html pages in IIS. see here for help with that

I don't see the connection between ASP and .NET here.
Are you trying to figure out why the ASP engine is not processing a file with the .HTML extension?
When you name a file with the .ASP extension, it will be processed by the ASP engine. When you name a file with some other extension, like .HTML, it will not be processed by the ASP engine so any ASP-specific markup in it will go through to the client.

combine classic asp with asp.net

I have a (huge) website written in classic asp. Now do I have to switch to vb.net (razor). Is there a way to combine those 2 till the switch is complete ?
Is there a way to let the application work with classic asp and vb.net ?
(I use webmatrix)(don't know if this is important information)
The reason I ask this is because the website contains more than
MSDN says you can run .asp and .aspx on the same server
ASP and ASP.NET can both be used on the same Web server. That is, a
Web site or Web application within a site can contain both ASP.NET
pages and ASP pages. Because both ASP and ASP.NET pages can be
accessed from the same Web server, you are not required to port your
existing ASP pages over to ASP.NET-compatible pages. [...]

asp codes wont be executed on server

I'm pretty new with ASP , but Im looking for an answer to this question and nothing found yet.
Im using an Apache server to upload my website on it. i write a very simple asp code like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<%
response.write("My first ASP script!")
%>
</body>
</html>
and save the file as file.asp & get this as result:
Is the problem Apache server or what? What Should I do?
You need to configure your server to process ASP pages.
Start with this Running ASP.Net on a Linux based server
If you are using old legacy ASP (not ASP.NET) then you may have trouble this platform is not actively developed from more than 10 years now. It would be better to switch to more modern framework e.g. ASP.NET.
Use a IIS web server rather. Moreover is it asp.net or classic asp? By any means if it results in <%response.write("My first ASP script!")%> that means web server somehow processing it a normal HTML and not understand the script block <% %> which can only happen if it's processed by ASP.NET dll or ASP dll.

Source Code shows for ASP.NET web page

I have a simple .aspx file that I want to run in my browser. I have installed IIS, along with all ASP.NET features, on my local machine. I am using USBWEBSERVER as a server to display my web pages.
When I put in the path of the file of my of web page (.aspx file), just like I do with all my PHP pages, I get the source code (instead of the GUI).
How can I set this up so .aspx pages will work on my machine?
I think you have to get a web server that supports ASP.NET. Right now, there's IIS Express, which is free and can host a multitude of technologies:

How is an ASP.NET read by the browser?

How does the browser interpret an ASP.NET webpage, hosted in IIS?
The first time the webpage is accessed, is something installed in the browser? Or ASP.NET creates "normal" HTML pages?
IIS interprets and executes the ASP.NET code and markup and sends HTML to the browser.
The browser interprets the HTML.
ASP .NET is server side. It executes remotely and delivers standard HTML page to browser
"An ASP.NET page has the extension .aspx. If a browser requests an
ASP.NET page, the server processes any executable code in the page,
before the result is sent back to the browser."
Quoted from w3schools website.
The first time the asp.net page is accessed it is compiled into a .net class (together with the code behind). There is a so called ISAPI filter installed into iis. When you access an asp.net page (a file with .aspx extension) iis will use the ISAPI filter to execute the request using class that has been compiled.
