Getting IIS to work with ASP etc

[Mettá]

Win XP Pro SP3 (& FP 2003)
I have had to do a complete re install and (as usual when this happens) I am
having real trouble getting the local web via IIS to run.

I am getting the following error and warning from the system event logs when
I try to browse http://local...

Event Type: Warning

Win XP standard install as administrator etc I have not changed any user or

I do not know how to resolve this, any suggestions?

Thanks

Just to add detail...

On browsing to "Default Web Site" via IIS I get...

Server Application Error
The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the
processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail
information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance.

Not sure if this will help, but what browser are you running?

You've upgraded to IE 7 and now you can't open your FrontPage web sites
under localhost

Hi Kathleen

I had already added "computer name" and localhost but it has not resolved
it. I always seem to have trouble getting local webs going on a fresh
install!

You will probably get answers in an IIS forum or
newsgroup. Have you set IIS to allow anonymous
browsing in IIS MMC?
