Hi,
I tried running a simple "Hello, World form ASP" server-side script... and
it appears that IIS did not enable ASP by default on my computer. It
complaints that the "%" character is an invalid character when it parses the
line containing "<%". The asp.dll object is in the /windows/system/intsrv
folder.
Can I manually enable the ASP feature?

ASP is enabled by default on IIS 5.1 on Windows XP. There is nothing
to "manually enable", so let's look at the problem objectively.
Can you provide:
1. The exact URL of your simple server side script which results in
the error
2. The applicable Application mapping for the extension of the URL in
#1, revealing the configured Script Engine
3. The exact content of your URL (or smallest content that reproduces
the issue)
4. The exact error response
Your problem is that the Script Engine in #2 is complaining about
content of your server side script. Let's make sure that it's the
right engine and right syntax.
At this point, /windows/system32/inetsrv/asp.dll does not enter into
the discussion because you have not shown that your problem is even
caused by it. You have to first prove that your page was configured to
be processed by asp.dll. While it is by default, the error is not by
default, so something is funny with your computer/settings and I am
not assuming anything for troubleshooting. Thus, you have to verify
and prove everything starting from the fundamentals so that we can see
what is going awry.
FYI: You want to get used to using \ instead of / as directory
separator on Windows.

The error in the parent message is no longer the problem. I think I might of
been running two webservers apps on my local computer.
I'm learning Web design on my personal home computer, so, the URL is
http://localhost/test_file.asp.
I took out the server side tags to test out the file name extension.
Therefore, I put the text below in to files: "test_file.htm" and
"test_file.asp".

Are you running personal security software on this system, and if so,
please verify that the security software supports IIS and does not
cripple it. Several personal security software are known to cripple
IIS, Scripting Engine, or COM+ to prevent IIS from functioning to
execute pages like ASP, and IIS failures would look as mysterious as
this.
Can you report exactly what is returned on the 500 error page, making
sure to disable IE's "Show Friendly HTTP Error" option so that you get
the actual 500 response from the ASP page.
What you did works for me just fine on a default XP Pro installation,
so the problem is likely caused by software on your system outside of
IIS, or some sort of misconfiguration.

Hi David,
I can access an asp page with my old web server software (PWS: Abyss X1 and
ASP Parser: ActiveHTMl) OK. But I want to use IIS and SMTP. Nevertheless, I
uninstalled the ActiveHtml and Abyss X1 and disable the McAfee firewall. I
still get the error HTTP 500 error, which displays the following:
The website cannot display the page
Most likely causes:
The website is under maintenance.
The website has a programming error.
What you can try:
Refresh the page.
Go back to the previous page.
More information
This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are
visiting had a server problem which prevented the webpage from displaying.
For more information about HTTP errors, see Help.
Its fining the web page OK, but its not displaying it. I'm not sure whether
or not if the ActiveHTML uninstalled is leaving some residual affect.

Please turn off IE's "Show Friendly HTTP Errors" advanced Option. And

What you are currently seeing is a sanitized page used by IE which

The IIS Default Web Site Application Configuration Mapping for Extension
".asp" is: Executable Path = "C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\asp.dll" and the
Verbs = "GET,HEAD,POST,TRACE"
IIS also fails for .aspx files. Here is the Executable Path =
"c:\windows\Microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727
\aspnet_isapi.dll" and the Verbs = "GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG"
There are no ISAPI Filters .dlls for the Default Web Site.
The only iis log file I could find was c:\windows\iis6.log. But it did not
contain any networking entries.
The unfriendly web page error is:

You need to first check if McAfee is corrupting and preventing ASP/
ASP.Net from running because it has been known to do exactly that. If
it is, you need to contact McAfee product support on how it properly
supports IIS. In general, if you find ASP/ASP.Net to be mysteriously
failing, it is much more likely that something external is crippling
your machine and not an IIS issue.
If you conclude that it is still an IIS issue:
%windir%\iis6.log is the IIS setup log file, which is not applicable
here.
%windir%\system32\LogFiles\W3SVC1\*.log contains the IIS log files for
each request to the Default Website
ISAPI Filters are configured in both global (under "Web Sites" node)
and site (under "Default Web Site" node). Please provide info on both.
IIS on XP Pro has global ISAPI Filters by default.
I need the Application Mapping Configuration for the .asp and .aspx
extensions on the actual URL of your request. i.e. If you request
http://localhost/vdir/page.asp , then I need the Application Mapping
Configuration for /vdir . Only if you don't have an application or
vdir at /vdir would the setting from "Default Web Site" be applicable.

Hi David,
I wrote to the McAfee support forum group (for my current version of McAfee)
they wrote back with the response: I have not heard of this issue before in
this forum. Check for malware. I checked for malware using a free version of
SUPERAntiSpy. No malware was detected. However, then I used a third party
PWS with ActiveHTML the asp files run fine.
I put the text below into two files: "test_asp.htm" and "test_asp.asp".
Can you please provide your configured ISAPI Filters at the global
level (at "Web Sites" node)
It is still something on your server preventing .asp and .aspx files
from executing, and it's not IIS itself. This just does not seem like
a bug/problem within IIS, even though it does not run ASP/ASP.Net for
you right now.
If you need .asp to run, I suggest you stick with your existing
method.
Here's what you have shown --
with the same static text (no scripting), when placed in a resource
with .asp extension, causes a "500" to be returned. ASP.DLL, when it
encounters such "scriptless" files, simply return the contents and do
no script processing.
Thus, I expect the same result between /test_asp.asp and /
test_asp.htm , but that is not the case.
Do you have any ISAPI Filters (check both "Web Sites" and "Default Web
Site" nodes) which could be returning 500 on its own?
I can just say that is suspicious that .ASPX fails with 500 as well --
because it is very rare to have both ASP.DLL and ASPNET_ISAPI.DLL to
fail with similarly suspicious 500.
Can you change the website to run in "Low" Isolation instead of the
default "Medium"? I want to take COM+ out of the picture -- even
though for ASP.DLL it would be loaded in DLLHOST.EXE in Medium
Isolation and for ASPNET_ISAPI.DLL it would be loaded in INETINFO.EXE
no matter the Isolation setting since it is in the list of
"InProcessIsapi"

with the same static text (no scripting), when placed in a resource
with .asp extension, causes a "500" to be returned. ASP.DLL, when it
encounters such "scriptless" files, simply return the contents and do
no script processing.
Thus, I expect the same result between /test_asp.asp and /
test_asp.htm , but that is not the case.
Do you have any ISAPI Filters (check both "Web Sites" and "Default Web
Site" nodes) which could be returning 500 on its own?
I can just say that is suspicious that .ASPX fails with 500 as well --
because it is very rare to have both ASP.DLL and ASPNET_ISAPI.DLL to
fail with similarly suspicious 500.
Can you change the website to run in "Low" Isolation instead of the
default "Medium"? I want to take COM+ out of the picture -- even
though for ASP.DLL it would be loaded in DLLHOST.EXE in Medium
Isolation and for ASPNET_ISAPI.DLL it would be loaded in INETINFO.EXE
no matter the Isolation setting since it is in the list of
"InProcessIsapi"

You can change the Isolation mode in the "Home Directory" or "Virtual
Directory" tab, right above where you can click on the "Configuration"
button to look up Application Mapping.
There aren't any unexpected filters configured, other than pwsdata not
really being necessary on XP Pro other than for compatibility on
upgrade from Win9x. But it should not be causing this.
Hmm... this seems really weird. There aren't any unexpected ISAPI
Filters running and causing issues, and ISAPI Extensions mapped
to .asp and .aspx seem alright. The main thing common between .asp
and .aspx is that they are both ISAPI Extension DLLs... and I can't
think of any common mechanism to fail.
- ASP.DLL will load up the Windows Script Engines in whatever process
it is in (inetinfo.exe in Low Isolation, dllhost.exe in Medium/High
Isolation)
- ASP.Net queues requests into the appropriate App Domain in some
aspnet_wp.exe
I want to run ASP in Low Isolation to take COM+ out of the equation --
no more extra process hops.
Can you also log the cs-uri-query field -- I believe ASP adds extra
error information on that field for diagnosis, so it would be useful
information, especially for a 500 error.

I re-read the email I got from McAfee and he qualified his response by
saying the home addition isn't really design for a server environment. They
provide a corporate version for that. So, I'm asking them How can I disable
the product... to remove it from the equation.

Hmm... well, I'm out of ideas on what could simultaneously break ASP
and ASP.Net like this.
By moving ASP into Low Isolation, both DLLs are loaded in
inetinfo.exe, and both still fail. Without ISAPI Filters modifying
behavior of the IIS request processing pipeline, and Without Wildcard
(.*) application mapping at the same level as .aspx and .asp
Application Mapping, there is no way for non-IIS code to run prior to
handling the requests. This nullifies the "custom 3rd party code"
theory.
At which point, I can only start considering what can be broken in
Windows to simultaneously cause ASP and ASP.Net to fail with a 500.
Short of some sort of file corruption (unlikely to simultaneously
affect two different products unless it was a big disk crash, and
you'd probably notice other things wrong as well), such mysterious
breakage usually come from:
1. security software or
2. domain policy tweaking settings.
It sounds like your computer has never been in a domain (if it has
been in a domain but removed from it, the security setting changes
will remain and is a common culprit)
Sorry, but I cannot think of anything more that is specific to IIS
that can affect your situation. Hopefully you now have enough details
to progress with others.

Hi David,
Incase I don't get back in touch with you... Thanks very much for all your
time and effort.

Hmm... well, I'm out of ideas on what could simultaneously break ASP
and ASP.Net like this.
By moving ASP into Low Isolation, both DLLs are loaded in
inetinfo.exe, and both still fail. Without ISAPI Filters modifying
behavior of the IIS request processing pipeline, and Without Wildcard
(.*) application mapping at the same level as .aspx and .asp
Application Mapping, there is no way for non-IIS code to run prior to
handling the requests. This nullifies the "custom 3rd party code"
theory.
At which point, I can only start considering what can be broken in
Windows to simultaneously cause ASP and ASP.Net to fail with a 500.
Short of some sort of file corruption (unlikely to simultaneously
affect two different products unless it was a big disk crash, and
you'd probably notice other things wrong as well), such mysterious
breakage usually come from:
1. security software or
2. domain policy tweaking settings.
It sounds like your computer has never been in a domain (if it has
been in a domain but removed from it, the security setting changes
will remain and is a common culprit)
Sorry, but I cannot think of anything more that is specific to IIS
that can affect your situation. Hopefully you now have enough details
to progress with others.

Hi,
I just wanted to let you know, I disabled the personal security software and
the till persisted.
Thanks,

Hmm... well, I'm out of ideas on what could simultaneously break ASP
and ASP.Net like this.
By moving ASP into Low Isolation, both DLLs are loaded in
inetinfo.exe, and both still fail. Without ISAPI Filters modifying
behavior of the IIS request processing pipeline, and Without Wildcard
(.*) application mapping at the same level as .aspx and .asp
Application Mapping, there is no way for non-IIS code to run prior to
handling the requests. This nullifies the "custom 3rd party code"
theory.
At which point, I can only start considering what can be broken in
Windows to simultaneously cause ASP and ASP.Net to fail with a 500.
Short of some sort of file corruption (unlikely to simultaneously
affect two different products unless it was a big disk crash, and
you'd probably notice other things wrong as well), such mysterious
breakage usually come from:
1. security software or
2. domain policy tweaking settings.
It sounds like your computer has never been in a domain (if it has
been in a domain but removed from it, the security setting changes
will remain and is a common culprit)
Sorry, but I cannot think of anything more that is specific to IIS
that can affect your situation. Hopefully you now have enough details
to progress with others.
