cannot display ASP page in IE 6.0 on Win XP

[Hannah Wang]

I have IIS installed on Win XP. When I type
http://localhost/*.html (*.html mean any htm file)
in IE, it works well. The page is displayed. But for
any http://localhost/*.asp file, it always return
either HTTP 500 Internal server error or Cannot find
DNS server. I tried http://localhost/iishelp, it does
not work also.

Any suggestion?

Thanks,

Hannah

1) Read the past messages in the group or Google the group archives,
this gets posted a dozen times a week.

2) See this link, you'll need it in the future more than now:
