Over the weekend, I am installing a website on a laptop so our sales staff
can give a demonstration on Monday at a potential client site. Things are
not working as expected. I'm hoping what's wrong will be apparent from the
symptoms below.
I created a virtual directory beneath the Default Web Site using the wizard.
I have set the execute permission on the Default Web Site (and directories
beneath it) to Script. If I run iisstart.asp in the browser, the page comes
up saying the web service is running. IIS 5.1.
Plain vanilla HTML docs are being served up without a problem:
http://localhost/mywebapp/hello.htm --- okay
But http://localhost/mywebapp/howdy.aspx -- there is a problem. The aspx
controls are not being converted to HTML. It's as though the aspx rendering
engine is not running.
Howdy.aspx contains an asp:Label, an asp:Textbox, and an asp:Button.
When I type the URL into the browser, the page loads, but only the label
shows. When I examine the HTML source code in the browser, it reads:
<asp:Label ....
<asp:Textbox...
<asp:Button ...
The aspx is still "raw" and unprocessed. The page source should show this:
<span id="Label1 ... etc
<input name="TextBox1 ... etc
<input type="submit" name="Button1"...etc
Why are the ASPX controls not being rendered?
The laptop is running WinXP Pro SP2.
Thanks
