Help Please, IIS, Asp, Access.

Hello this is Robert, from Italy,
I am trying to learn a little bit asp language,
I am tired to load pages on my web site just for test.
I installed Windows 2000 5.00-2195 Service Pack 4 + IIS 5.
Not problem to test some pages, but problem testing some others, in
particular i had problem with pages reading data from an'access 2000
database, the page works fine on the web, but not in my local root.

Why the page does not work in my rootdirectory ?

Is it possible to test on local computer any asp page dealing with
an'access 2000 database, or i'm trying something impossible ?

To test my local asp pages, i'm typeing the local address, is there a
way to avoid this and just click in the asp pages, like if it was html
page ?
I use Internet Explorer 6.0.2800



Server Details :
Windows 2003 Server IIS 6

Supported :
ASP(3.0) su IIS 6.0
PHP(4.3.2) safe mode OFF, Dcom and COM disabled (Not Access connection
possible)
CGI script written in PERL
SSI (shtm, shtml)
Wap
VBScript (5.6.7426)
Database format supported : Access 2000 or superior
MySQL Database support optional (Not requested at the moment, I don't
think i need it)


Any help appreciated.

Best Regards
Robert.

We don't know why they don't work because you haven't told us what error
messages you are running into.

Cheers

Re: Help Please, IIS, Asp, Access.

I was putting the files, in the wrong directory.
Now everything is working, even .aspx files.


Thanks, Best Regards
Robert.

Re: Help Please, IIS, Asp, Access.

Have you assignned your ODBC Data Source to your Access Database?
that is, System DSN, File DSN and Drivers.
Try it and see what happens!
Note:
You cannot double-click or F12 on the .asp file like you'd normally do in
your application. You must launch your browser, in
the address-bar type: http://localhost/filename.asp and file your bookmark
there in your favorites so that you can test it by just clicking on it and
test it over and over again.
Hope this helps....
