Classic ASP and IIS 7

Hi all,

I'm migrating a classic ASP site from IIS 6 to IIS 7 and I'm finding some
minor problems that I'm assuming are IIS 7 config related.

The problem I'm concerned with right now is that when I run the asp pages,
they have lost all their image and CSS links.

Functionality is fine (that is I can query the DB, update records, etc) but
all graphic features have been lost.

Any suggestion on how to solve this issue?

Thanks.

Marc

It's probaby a matter of enabling parent paths. It's a similar issue in
IIS6: parent paths being disabled by default.

Thanks Bob,

Parent paths were enabled on IIS7, so that shouldn't be the issue.

Re: Classic ASP and IIS 7

Well, You've kind of left us in the dark here. It does not appear to be an
ASP issue. I suggest creating a small test page (repro.htm) containing only
the bit of html or css that allows the problem to be seen. Show us the page.
I further suggest cross-posting your reply to the inetserver.iis group as
well, if only to get more eyes looking at it. By "crosspost", I mean enter
both groups into the To: field of your reply. Do not multipost, i.e., post a
separate reply to the other group.
