Hi
I have created a simple "Hello world" ASP.NET web
service for tesing purpose. This runs well on windows2000
machines but if I deploy in the same way onto Windows 2003
server enterprise edition it does not work!!.
IE throws The page cannot be found (HTTP Error 404 )

Other .Net applications(like console apps and Form based
apps) run well on this machine.

Is there anything I need to take care on this platform.

Thanks in advance
Kiran

Hi Kiran,

Thank you for using Microsoft MSDN managed newsgroup.

Would you please tell me how do you deploy your web service onto the
Windows 2003 Server? Is it possible for you to try to create a web service
on the Windows 2003 Server? Please try to test the following sample on the
Windows 2003 server. Can you reproduce the same error?

Kiran,

I would recommend verifying your IIS configs; make sure the necessary
site/vroot is established.

Cheers,

Try to call "aspnet_regiis.exe -i" from Visual studio .net 2003 Command
prompt.

By default, IIS does not allow you to run anything (secure mode)...

you need to configure IIS to run ASP.NET so go to administrative tools,
configure this computer, and enable IIS for ASp.NET and for static pages
(html)

Hi Jacob,
Thanks for your reply

I created the web service same way as the sample and
deployed on 2000 server by creating the virtual directory
and pointing to the folder containing related files, it
worked fine
If I do the same thing on windows 2003 server machine it
does not work
Do I have to do some thing with IIS setting specifically
for win 2003 server if YES what kind of setting I need to
do


Thanks in advance

Hi Kiran,

Based on my research and experience, the following Knowledge Base article
is useful to you. Please refer to it carefully.

HOW TO: Enable and Disable Dynamic Content in IIS 6.0
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=315122
"...
By default, when Internet Information Services (IIS) is installed on any
version of the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family, IIS only serves static
content (HTML). When you request dynamic content, such as Active Server
Pages (ASP) or ASP.NET pages, you receive one of the following error
messages:

HTTP Error 404 - File Not Found
-or-

HTTP Error 404- File or Directory not found
To permit IIS to serve other types of content, the administrator must
unlock this content in the Web service extensions node in the IIS
management console. To do this, either enable a pre-existing Web service
extension or add a new Web service extension.
..."

Does it answer your question? If I have misunderstood your concern, please
feel free to let me know.
