aspfunction does not work?

Jim · Feb 26, 2005

Hi

I am a newbie to asp and i built this test program:

<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Test</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
the time is <% = Time %>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Problem: It does not show the time! very basic probably but not for me

<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Test</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
the time is <%=FormatDateTime(Now(), 4) %><br>
the time is <%=FormatDateTime(Time(), 4) %>
</BODY>
</HTML>

I've put an example here for you;

Does your server support ASP, and do you have the file in a file with a ..asp extension?

If yes to both, have you made sure debugging on the clientside is enabled in IIS?

To turn debugging on, open the properties for the site and click the Home Directory tab, then the Configuration button, and then the App Debugging tab and place a tick in "Enable client-side script debugging"

Note: you may need to stop/start the site in IIS for the changes to take effect (atleast, I've always had to)

Have you checked the Event Viewer to see whats being logged for it? (500 is usually caught in there and should provide some guidance on whats causing it)

Then Steve's answers are not relevant to you. You need to post to a .Net
group, such as microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet

hehe, I'd not noticed that part

Except the code in question was ASP.

Does that matter if he's trying to run it in an aspx page?

Bob Lehmann · Feb 26, 2005

<playonwords type="ugly">If an ASP executes in the ASPX, and it's not
supported, does anyone hear it.<playonwords>

He said he used ASP.NET, not whether the page was an ASPX file.
Though he never said it was an ASP file either, so it could be his
real problem is he's trying this in a HTM/HTML file...

if i try http://mycomputername/localstart.asp then it doesn't display the
iis welcome page
The webservices are switched on.

Have you tried a "Hello World!" ASP page?

Jeff

Jim · Feb 27, 2005

if the iis welcome page does not show up this means that somehow iis cannot
process asp.pages.
so even a helloworld page would not work
the error it shows:

Server Application Error
The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the
processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail
information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance.
