Installing .Net Framework

[Guest]

Hello,
although not a typical development problem per se, it is a situation that
prevents me for developing in the .net framework v1.1.
In a Windows 2000 Server with .Net Framework version 1.0.3705 installed, all
asp & aspx files ran fine. I tried to install the newest version (1.1x)
without uninstalling version 1.0 and installation seemed fine, aspx files
were running OK. However, asp pages did not run, with an HTTP Error 500
(Internal server error). An uninstallation of the newest version, alongside a
reboot that followed, corrected the problem.

The particular server hosts numerous client asp pages, and all of them had
the Internal server error, even when application protection was at the "low"
setting.
Please note that I am not an experienced developer, so I might have missed
some tweaks that might make it work. What could have cause the problem?

TIA,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

The HTTP 500 is a general error message. Please disable 'Show
friendly HTTP error message' in IE Internet options->Advanced. Then
please browse to some ASP pages to see if there is more detailed
error info returned.

Also please check your event log. There should be some W3SVC or ASP
related error/warning events can show us some light.

I'm waiting for your update.

Hello,
thanks for your answer.
Due to uptime constraints (our aspx sites were down), I had to manually
uninstall both versions (per KB 320112) and then I installed v1.1 from
scratch (without installing v. 1.0), so I cannot do any more tracing of the
problem. After that, everything worked. It seems that the installation of
1.1 somehow interferred with 1.0. However, no suspicious warnings or errors
were present in the event logs. Anyway, problem solved.
Many thanks though for your fast response.

Rgds,
Dimitris
