I am waiting for that but before that I am not able to undestand why a .asp
file will not open if other files are opening. May be problem in asp.dll ?
But not sure.

No,   I have the IP address of the remote server and I am testing from my
machine like this  IPaddress/testfile.asp, and getting the error message.
But IPaddress/testfile.html   files are opening.

Not able to understand this but as .html pages are ok so may be this is not
the problem. Also all the .asp files are working perfectly in my PWS and in
another test site also. So codes are OK
