I have just moved from Windows XP Pro to Windows Vista Ultimate. I installed IIS and all sub categories (including Classic ASP).
I have a few websites in my wwwroot folder that are Classic ASP sites. When I try to view them through localhost, I keep getting an error message:
An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator.
If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error.
This error links off to this page, which is about running Classic ASP websites on IIS7.
I have followed the post and enabled ASP in IIS. However, I cannot get the sites to work.
Can anyone please shed some light as to why this is happening? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It works for me once I added ASP under Programs and Features without any issues.. One thing I noticed is a checkbox to "enable server side includes" so if your ASP app has that, you may want to check that off.
You also may want to check security settings but I didn't have any issues with that either.
I wrote a very complex ASP page with the following source code for a test
<%= Response.Write("Hi Stack Overflow") %>
In PowerShell, that's:
ipmo servermanager
add-windowsfeature web-asp

This is a first for me. I have an older Win 2003 R2 server running IIS6. My customer has CFM pages as well as some classic ASP pages. The CFM pages work fine. when I try to browse for the ASP pages (Remember, CLASSIC ASP NOT ASP.NET) I get a page cannot be found. If I change the extension to urlinfo.html, the page comes up with no processing of course.
I have tried the aspnet_iisreg function but the issue still happens.
any ideas on how to fix this? I am stuck.
I did some classic asp with a newer version of IIS, hence it may be not relevant but still I have two ideas for your consideration.
In Windows Features (I'm using Win7), at World Wide Web Services\Application Development Features check whether ASP is enabled. I believe that on Win 2003 these were called the Web Service Extensions area and Active Server Pages.
If (1) did not help, check the Handler Mappings for your page. If the *.asp mapping is missing you should add it. In my case it is added with following options:
Request path: *.asp
Module: IsapiModule
Executable: %windir%\system32\inetsrv\asp.dll
Name: ASP_Classic (you can call it in whatever way you want)
Hope it helps!
I am trying to set up my Windows Server 2012 to run an ASP.NET website. The website can serve html pages and .svc pages, but whenever I visit an .aspx page, it will simply time out.
Error 118 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT)
If I would at least get some sort of error description, I could go from there, but I just get a timeout message, as if the server is completely unavailable, so I am stuck with this problem.
It seems the aspx pages are not loaded at all, since I've already tried drastic measures such as putting a "throw Exception" in the first line of Page_Load.
If I create a new site and put just an aspx page in there, it executes fine.
The Event Log is not showing anything in relation to this.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Creating a new web site in IIS8 and pointing to the same folder made it work. Now the site is working fine and running code as normal.
My guess is, that if I created the website before installing all needed features, they were not part of that site. Now, after installing a new site, it contains all the current features.
It doesn't make TOO much sense, though, as the server had ASP.NET 4.5 from installation (it's Windows Server 2012).
Open up the Web Platform Installer.
Now look for IIS: ASP.NET 4.5 and install that.
I had the same problem as everyone else and nothing worked until I did that.
There is a difference between installing dotNET on your computer/server and dotNET for IIS.
I'm having problems with an old classic asp site that I'm trying to get set up in a dev environment. I get the following error at the line for the include files.
An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator.
If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error.
Here's my setup:
I'm running IIS 7 on Win 7.
I have an app pool ControlPanel set up with No managed code and classic pipeline
My website ControlPanel configured under default websites pointing to my project directory "C:\Projects\uk_CP\uk_AU\au"
Many of the pages work, I can log in, click on a link to a feedback form, but eventually I get the above error.
My feedback form is located at "C:\Projects\uk_CP\uk_Au\au\feedbackform_admin\dataview_master.asp"
It has two include files:
<!--#include file="../inc/adovbs.inc" -->
<!--#include file="../inc/incCreateConn.asp" -->
this are correctly located in "C:\Projects\uk_CP\uk_Au\au\inc\"
Is perhaps my IIS configured incorrectly that throws off my working directory? Is there a useful way to troubleshoot the path it's looking at? I haven't work in classic asp in 10 years and it is not something I want to become an expert in, but I do need to get this figured out and I've killed too much time as it is.
Obviously this is an issue with my setup since it does work in production...
In your ASP-configuration you must enable the setting 'Allow parent paths'
So I have all the updated code, the entire solution builds. It works on everyone else's machine, however when I try and access localhost/extranet on my machine, it gives me this error:
HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden
Detail Error Info:
Module DirectoryListingModule
Notification ExecuteRequestHandler
Handler 0x00000000
Requested URL http://localhost:80/extranet/
Physical Path C:\svn\K2\trunk\appteam\web\Chatham.Web.UI.Extranet\
Logon Method Anonymous
Logon User Anonymous
Now I tried going into IIS7, and enabling directory browsing, this removed the error, but still didn't bring up my website. I also tried going in and disabling the default document, re-enabling it, everything, nothing worked. I've also restarted IIS a few times to no avail.
Any ideas?
It sounds like your IIS is not processing the routing rules for your application and is trying to find a default.aspx, index.htm, etc. Since it cannot, it is wanting to display the directory listings (which is why you were getting the 404.14).
I just checked my dev setup and I think that your AppPool has to be set on Integrated as opposed to Classic on the Managed Pipeline for the AppPool. I have ran into this before, there may be ways to use the Classic Pipeline, but this would/should be the quickest way to resolve your issue. To check/change the pipeline mode, click on Application Pools from the menu on the left side of IIS, find your AppPool and look in the managed pipeline column. If it is set to Classic -> Right click the AppPool, choose basic settings, then change the dropdown from Classic to Integrated.
If I am incorrect, someone please feel free to correct me on this in the comments.
Edit - Just to add, you can run an MVC app in the Classic Pipeline mode, but you have to do the IIS 6 tricks to get it to work properly. Mainly, you need to turn on wildcard script mapping for MVC to work in Classic mode, If not it expects an .aspx file (or similar) to exist for it to handle the execution pipeline over to .NET from IIS.
Causes this error is removed Global.asax file from your root directory of your site.
To solve this problem add a Global.asax file to your project.
See here: How to add Global.asax file to ASP.NET MVC4 project
In IIS, you need to find out which app pool your application is running from. Just right click the web application under Sites>Manage Web Site>Advanced Settings. The first property should be the app pool.
Now, click Application Pools. You should see a column called "Identity". Add that user to the ACL of the C:\svn\K2\trunk\appteam\web\Chatham.Web.UI.Extranet\ directory. If it just says 'ApplicationPoolIdentity', it can be a little tricky figuring out the user. If it's just running under DefaultAppPool, you can use IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool.
My solution was because I didn't have ASP.NET installed via "Turn Windows Features on and Off" so it was simple. I figured it out by enabling directory browser and trying to go to my views folder which then gave a more descriptive answer and pretty much said that there was a problem with a module because ASP.NET is not properly installed. It then dawned on my to go and install it.
Change the 'start page' by right click on the page and select 'Set as Start Page' that you want to open first when the web application starts first. This might solve your problem. :)
Also make sure in IIS Application Pool settings that Enabled 32-bit Applications under Advanced Settings is set to FALSE. I spent hours trying to fix this and that was my issue. Windows Server 2012 IIS 8.5
I solved this problem by setting exact .net framework. My website was using v4.0 version of .net.
Workaround to handle the problem:
Open command line as an administrator
Go to directory "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319"
Execute the following: aspnet_regiis.exe -i
Open IIS and change Pipeline Mode of Your application to Integrated
Hope this helps
In my case the HTTP Redirection feature was missing on the server (with IIS 10).
Adding the feature resolved the issue and the site started to load fine.
I have an asp.net website that has been running well in IIS 6.0. I very well remember the sites ASP.NET version was set to version 2.0 in IIS but i just checked and found the version set to nothing. If i click the site asp.net version dropdownlist in IIS, i can see two options(1.1.4322 and 2.0.50727).
The problem is i set it back to 2.0 and now the site can nolonger be accessed both remotely and locally.
And i cant set it back to "nothing" since the version dropdownlist only has two options( 2.0.50727 and 1.1.4322).
Any ideas what could be going wrong.
Below is what i get in the browser

It sounds like .NET isn't properly installed on your IIS website.
Try to open a command prompt, step into %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ and run aspnet_regiis.exe (use the directive -? for help). If you only run one IIS website on your server you can run aspnet_regiis.exe -i
Hope this may help you.
.net 1.1 and .net 2.0 don't get along well on IIS 6.0. You must run one of the frameworks in a different app pool - so, for every 1.1 website, for example, run it in a new app pool (other than the default).
