Hello:

Our office in the process of deploying a new web server. The machine is
running Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6.0. We have ASP.NET 2.0 and FrontPage
Server extensions installed on our intranet.

As a test, I used Expression Web to create an .aspx page. I was able to
successfully configure and test a data source (using the "Northwind" Access
database) within Expression Web, but when I tried to display the results in
a web browser, I got the following error:

-------------------------------------------
The page cannot be found...
....
HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
-------------------------------------------

I did some research on support.microsoft.com and made sure that IIS is
configured to support ASP. When I ran the test again, I got the same error
message.

What do I need to do to resolve this situation?


Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer,

IIRC, the server needs .NET 3.0 installed in order to use .aspx

..NET 2.0 is sufficient.

Make sure the website is set up in IIS to run .NET, and that IIS has
"Allowed" asp.NET in the "Web Server Extensions" folder in IIS MMC.
Asp.NET is not the same as ASP.
Right click on the website in IIS MMC, and choose Properties.
On ASP.NET tab ensure the correct version of .NET is selected.

Does a .htm and/or .asp page in the same directory display ok?

Thanks Ronx,

I was having the same issue. And after changing the property on the "Web
Server Extensions" to allow ASP.NET v2.0 to run, the problem was solved.

Thanks!
