Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)

Hi

I just upgraded from XP Pro using iis 5.1 to Vista using iis 7.0. Now all my
trusty asp sites will not serve properly - no error messages, just blank
white pages.

I did install asp into my iis and have enabled the World Wide Web Publishing
Services in the Services console.

I have also found that I cannot view the iisstart.asp page and when I put a
simple html file test.htm in the localhost root, this also doesn't display.

I'm sure the solution is simple, I just can't figure it from the horribly
complex iis 7 management console.

Any pointers would be very gratefully received, before I'm complelled to
throw Vista away and restore an old image of my previuos xp set up.

Thanks in advance

Tim P

Sounds like your IIS7 request pipeline is misconfigured somehow, or
its config file is corrupted.

Check event log to see if anything is wrong with the
applicationHost.config file.

If everything is alright, then FREB should be installed and ready for
you to enable via the IIS7 Management Console to capture a trace of
IIS internals for the failing request, and you can view that XML file
with the supplied XSLT transform to get a very cool-looking
diagnostics sheet.

IIS7 may seem complicated because it is now so generic and flexible,
but the tools for diagnosing what is wrong with it is also much
better. It is way better than IIS on XP Pro; just give it a chance.
