An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator
Hi, Im new to web design and Im using Dreamweaver MX 2004. I recently started to learn the basics of building a dynamic web page with a "Dreamweaver MX2004: The Missing Manual". I recently upgraded my Op system from XP Home to Vista to access IIS.
Following the books tutorial, I successfully set up a connection to a MS Access database. The next chapter in the book involved the creation of a web page with dynamic data. Again, following the book's instructions, I loaded up a page with four or five dynamic fields.
The next step in the process involved a "Preview in IE". However, I received the following error message when I tried to view the page:
http://localhost/nationalex_root/TMPqs6jfq3th7.asp
An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator
This is the error message w/ "Show Friendly Error Messages" unchecked. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

UAC changes made. Same error message.
Have you tested http://localhost/ to make sure IIS is working properly? Yes.
