Help with error message.

Trying to configure server extension 2002 on W2K3 standard edition and get an
error message. "Unable to access configuration for Microsoft Internet
Information Server." Any help?

Is IIS Installed?

Are you an admin on the box?

Yes IIS 6.0 is installed and I am the administrator. Both of our sites are
up and runing. www.montanasfa.org and www.mscopff.org

This is somewhat of a long shot, but make sure Windows authentication is
enabled for your content Web sites *and* for the administrative serrver.

I got everything to work. I had to uninstall the application server and then
reinstall it.

Now I can't seem to get the premissions set right for the advanced author on
a sub web.

server error: The folder"/......" is marked executable. You are not allowed
to put files into an executable folder on this server.

 

[Guest]

What folder is it?

Is that folder marked Execute Permissions: Scripts Only or Scripts and
Executables in IIS Manager?

On the Set Installation Defaults admin page, is Allow Authors To Upload
Executables checked?

And are you sure you want Advanced Authors uploading exe's and dll's?
