Can't run asp pages anymore

[Steven K]

Hello,

Due to onslaught of virus attacks, we were instructed to add or change
passwords for all machine users (i.e. Control Panel then Users and
Passwords). When I did that, I was no longer able to see my asp pages
(which are pulling data from Sql Server 2K) but I can show html pages. I am
not sure if the password change is the culprit or just coincidence

The users that I have are:
Administrator
ASPNET
Guest
IUSR_Machine Name
IWAM_Machine Name
SQLDEbugger

Any help with this would be appreciated.

What does "no longer able to see" mean? Do you get an error message? If
so, what is it? Do the scripts just time out? If neither of those two,
what is the exact symptom?

When I go to the following page:
http://localhost/pricing_support/default.asp
I get the following message:

"The page cannot be displayed
There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be
displayed."

Now, find out what the real error message is:

Hi,

This is the error I got:

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.

21:04:07 127.0.0.1 GET /price_ins/default1.asp 500

By the way, index.htm and default1.asp are the same page with different
names.

And I did the following, but no luck:
....you can remedy this simply by going into Internet Services Manager.
Right-click the application in question (or Default Web Site, if an
application is not relevant), select properties, hit the "Home Directory"
tab, click the "Remove" button, and then click the "Create" button. Follow
with Apply/OK etc and get out of Internet Services Manager. Refresh your
page, and all should be well again.

This is an IIS log. How about showing us what's in the *event* log?
