Is there an IIS Alternative?

student101 · 03-17-2008, 05:38 PM

Been using Microsofts (microsux) IIS to run ASP pages.
I got an error that I didn't record

after searching the net, found that I needed to upgrade the "Windows Scripting Host" So I did :thumbsup:
Then I tried the ASP page again and it gave me a new error that I did record: Invalid Default Script Language

, searched the net again to find that there is an update to fix the last update issues. So I did :thumbsup: again.
I am just sick and tired of Microsofts (microsux) paid for application that does not work due to their own updates!!! F' man!

ahhh the soft pillowy comfort of apache and PHP...

i heard chillisoft may have suport for asp and apache but there is a cost and you may have to rewrite some code

Sounds interesting, money?
Microsoft makes enough! wish their products would just work.

I know of sellisoft but they also went the $$ route.
I don't have a problem paying for a system that would work, but there are no gaurantees.

I think I have found the global FIX for it!

Quote:

Believe me when I say that I have tried everything possible to fix this ridiculous issue

I can brag because no forum, no link and not even Microsoft can solve it!(except break it!!!)

The FIX:
It's got to do with permissions
Open IIS Manager (Start/Run/inetmgr/OK)
Right click on Default Web Sites
Select All Tasks / Permissions wizard
Click Next
Select the option: "Select new security settings from a template"
Click Next
Select Public Web Site
Select the option: "Leave current directory and file permissions intact, and add the recommended permissions"
Click Next
Click Finish

Now go and load your ASP pages.
Enjoy...

F'n hell man Microsoft really knows how to screw up your day!
