migration issue with ASP on win 2003

[Chris]

I'm hoping someone can help me, I've searched the posts with limited results.
I'm migrating an app to a win 2003 boxwith sp-1 and I get:

Server object error 'ASP 0228 : 80004005'
Server.Execute Error
/rock/userlogin.asp, line 60
The call to Server.Execute failed while loading the page.

The page code:
'Call procedure to display the page header
Server.Execute("/ASP_Procedures/PageHeader.asp")

I've tried giving rights of the IUSR account to the system directory, no
luck. What can be causing this?

Thanx.

Have you enabled the "parent paths" setting in IIS?

Ok, I believe I've found the issue. Apparently this (server.execute) doesn't
work when the website (on IIS) is set up as a virtual directory under Default
websites. It must be a "stand-alone" website with its own IP (if other
website are running on that machine).
Learn something new everyday. Didn't see anything on that particular
requirement in any articles????
This kind of makes snese, but then again why can't it find the executed file
when set as a virtual directory?

Thanx.
