Hi, I have IIS 5.0 installed with Win XP. I was just upgraded from win 2000, so I set up my default web site with the same properties it had in win 2000 and restored the files associated with my web page. For some reason I can not view the ASP pages. If I load one of the htm pages from the same directory it works fine. Is there something I am forgetting with ASP? The ASP.Net service is running, and all my settings are the same as my other 2000 box that runs the same files and works fine. I receive a Page can not be displayed Error 500. Any ideas?

Ok, so I fixed my original problem. But now I have a different problem.

I have a DBConnect.ASP file and all it includes is declaring the objConn creating an instance of the ADODB.Connection and then setting the connections string. in the DBQ portion this is what I have :
"DBQ=\\ggwvvweb\relweb\wwwroot\dbName.mdb"
The computer I am running this on does have full access to the server and the database on the server. But when I try to load an asp page which has the dbConnect.asp included, I get the following error:
Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]General error Unable to open registry key 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0x7f0 Thread 0xd7c DBC 0x1110064 Jet'.
/testresultspage/DBConnect.asp, line 6


Where line 6 is just objConn.open

If I copy the database locally and change the DBQ= to have the local path to the database "DBQ=C:\dbName.mdb" It works fine.
Any ideas? Can I not use the \\server_Name syntax??
