372916 2005-07-17 10:29:00 Hi there!

I was wondering if someone out in cyberspace can help me . . . I have uploaded a couple of asp pages to my host server (the owner of the server assures me that it is set up to run asp and . net pages) but I get a "Page not Found" message when I go to my asp pages . Here are the links to the pages:
www . god-zone . org . nz/test . asp ( . god-zone . org . nz/test . asp" target="_blank">www . god-zone . org . nz) and also . god-zone . org . nz/my_first_asp_page . asp" target="_blank">www . god-zone . org . nz

Any ideas as to why these pages may not be running . . . . the server is a Windows 2003 server .

Here is the source code for both pages .

test . asp Source code:

<%@ Language="VBScript" %>
<% Option Explicit %>

<!--- This page should display "ASP is working!" --->

<!--- if ASP is available to you . --->

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>ASP Test Page</TITLE>
</HEAD>

<BODY>

<% Dim TestString %>
<% TestString = "ASP is Working!" %>

<H1>

<% Response . Write TestString %>

</H1>
</BODY>
</HTML>


my_first_asp_page source code:


<html>
<head>
<title>My First ASP Page</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="white" text="black">
<%
'Dimension variables
Dim strMessage

'Place the valuie Hello World into the variable strMessage
strMessage="Hello World"

'Write the contents of the variable strMessage to the web page
Repsone . Write(strMessage)

'Write line break into the web page
Repsone . Wrie("<br>")

'Write the server time on the web page using the VBScript Time() function
repsone . Write("the time on the server is: "& Time())

'Close the server script
%>
</body>
</html>




Thanx in advance for any help and advice! :thumbs: 		Brian (1043)
372917 2005-07-17 11:27:00 Hi Brian,
as with the CGI problem (which I'm still trying to get info on) the message I get when trying to access those pages is a permissions error

The page cannot be displayed
You have attempted to execute a CGI, ISAPI, or other executable program from a directory that does not allow programs to be executed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please try the following:

Contact the Web site administrator if you believe this directory should allow execute access.
HTTP Error 403.1 - Forbidden: Execute access is denied.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

I don't think you're hoster has things setup properly
I actually live close by and have had issues with this company before
It's a wierd setup they run and I think they rely on others for much of their technical expertise
As in the CGI post I admit to not knowing a hell of a lot about Windows Servers
I reckon you should get in touch with them again and have them sort it out 		bartsdadhomer (80)

I was wondering if you could contact me privatley and detail to me the expeirince that you have had with the company...I reckon you're right about them relying on others to give them technical advice...send me an email at besimms@xtra.co.nz

Thanx 		Brian (1043)
