[thelist] IIS returns 404 if .ASP page contains VBScript

[Ken Schaefer]

Hi,

So, are you saying now that ASP files are still 404 if they contain VBScript,
but if they only contain HTML (and have a .asp extension) you can access them
using your browser?

Cheers
Ken

: It turns out I was wrong about VBScript being the issue.  (Looked that way
: by

: question
: using the Windows Explorer's search command.  As I had recently turned on
: Indexing Service, I tried turning it back off.  (And rebooting)  This
: corrected
: Windows Explorer, but not IIS.  Now I'm wondering if there's a connection

: I doubt that's the issue.  Looking under my Default Web Site Properties,
: on the
: Custom Errors tab, I find Error 500 set to Type=default,
: Contents="Internal
: Server Error".  I assume that means "No".

: The pages in question work on our production server; it's just my computer
