Errors after installing .net framwork 2.0

[George J.]

I recently installed the .net framework (2.0) on our Win2K/IIS 5.0 web server
that has been running classic asp pages for several years. I also installed
the 2.0 service pack 1. Whenever i try to call up even a simple .aspx page
(basically just a response.write to say "Hello World") the server returns an
error message (after about 8-10 seconds of waiting) titled "Server Error in
'/' Application". The application log shows the following entry:

Event code: 3005

Can anyone assist? Thanks.

 

[nick chan]

does ur directory contain " '/App_GlobalResources/' folder?

 

[George J.]

No, it does not. What does this folder need to contain?

Besides just "installing" the .NET Framework from Windows update, you
also need to do this (in a command line on the webserver):

To enable a version of ASP.NET on IIS6 web server:
"%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50215\aspnet_regiis.exe" -i
(use correct version)

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnanchor/html/anch_iis.asp

Note that you have to check for the exact versions by poking around on
the file system.

re:

That version number corresponds to a beta of the .net framework.

The correct command to register the current version with IIS 6.0 is :

%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe

However, that will NOT enable ASP.NET. It only registers it with IIS 6.0.

The correct command to enable ASP.NET in the security console, on IIS 6.0, is :

%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -enable

However, this is all moot, since the OP is asking about
the .Net Framework 2.0 on W2K 2000 Server/IIS 5.0.

The OP should check to see if there's a folder named :

D:\Websites\mywebsite\App_GlobalResources

....and should also check to see which Global Resources the file
/misc/test.aspx is requesting...making sure the needed resource
is located in the App_GlobalResources directory.

That should get rid of the error.
