Hi all,

thought i'd write a new post as the last didn't get a reply, I was concerned why i'm having difficulty setting up and running test ASP.net pages.

I'm getting the message

580 Server Error
This Web page could not be opened. A connection to the page could not be made. Please click the Reload or Refresh button to try again.

when looking for http://localhost

Any Ideas, It didn't always say this, i use to get a page that had info on it.. I'm getting desparate now.

With thanks
Phil

hi, can i ask what OS do you have? also check if you set up your sie correctly

Hi,

Operating system is Win XP Pro, not sure what you mean by the SIE, but i have installed the IIS as it has come on a CD with a tutorial book that I am currently working from.

any help appreciated.

Phil

sorry for not having responded, i was busy. people can't seem to help you because there can be a gazillion reasons why the .net page isn't working.

just some...
>you do not have correct access privileges (OS user account)
>iis is not setup properly, .Net extension not included in default application pages
>.Net services are not enabled (disabled by default)
