ASP Errors

[David Jacobus]

Since upgrading to Windows 2003 Server from Windows 2000
Enterprise Server we have had alot of ASP problems. The
problems are centered around asp pages which are one level
or more below the main folder within a web site. We have
many web sites which have used the database interface
wizard in FrontPage which puts these pages up to three
levels deep inside the folder hierarchy of the main site.
The pages will not work with IIS 6. I have had to re-
engineer many of these sites without the database
interface wizard. My solution at this point is to put all
ASP pages at the root level which seems to work but
negates all version of Frontpage management including
FrontPage 2003 Beta. This is a serious problem!
Especially for us who teach FrontPage and ASP!

I think since he's teaching it, he can't really drop it.

Now I'm not familiar with Frontpage or even Win2003, but I believe there's a
setting in 2003 that is on by default (off by default in 2000) for
references to Parent directories.
If Frontpage is anything like interdev, then by default it references files
in a goofy manner. Often, I'll get things like
"../../Home/something/Default.asp" which is really in the same folder I'm
already in (up two down two), which I'm sure would cause a problem in 2003.
