"An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrat

test1

<%=test2
%>
test3

This program returns the error message in the subject line. I am,
unfortunately, stuck with using Windows Vista and read something about
getting the server to return a helpful error message, but was not able
to understand what to do.

If anyone can tell me what I need to do to this operating system to
get it to work like XP as far as letting me develop using ASP, I would
greatly appreciate the help.

Cheers -

Re: "An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system adminis

test1

<%=test2%>

test3

Will work (but the second line will be blank, because you haven't assigned
any value to the variable "test2"

If you want to write out the literal text "test2" then you need to do:

test1

<% Response.Write("test2") %>

test3

If you want to change the error message displayed, open the IIS Manager,
open the ASP feature, expand the "debugging properties" section. Change
"send errors to browser" property

Cheers

Yes, of course you are correct, I was sloppy with reentering my code.

Thank you for the help.
