That solution does not appear to be applicable to my problem. &nbsp;I am not using scripts on XP; I'm trying to use ASP on SBS 2008.

This can be used to switch the mode of IIS:<br />

<div>
That exact solution only applies to IIS6. &nbsp;I've already set the equalivent option in IIS7 in the proper app pool, as described in my question above.

Yes, that's it -- thanks!<br />

Summary of fix: 32-bit version of compression module is not included (or installed, anyway) by default on SBS 2008 64-bit. &nbsp;However, disabling compression will not fix the problem -- the compression module has to be disabled completely. &nbsp;The below command will remove the compression module:<br />
<br />
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\<wbr />appcmd.exe<wbr /> set config -section:system.webServer/<wbr />httpCompre<wbr />ssion /-[name='xpress']<br />
<br />
To re-enable the module:<br />
<br />
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\<wbr />appcmd.exe<wbr /> set config -section:system.webServer/<wbr />httpCompre<wbr />ssion /+[name='xpress',doStaticC<wbr />ompression<wbr />='false',d<wbr />ll='%windi<wbr />r%\system3<wbr />2\inetsrv\<wbr />suscomp.dl<wbr />l']<br />
<br />
For debugging purposes:<br />
<br />
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\<wbr />appcmd.exe<wbr /> list config -section:system.webServer/<wbr />httpCompre<wbr />ssion

How do I configure a website within SBS 2008 to run as 32-bit? &nbsp;I am trying to run ASP code to access a MDB database, but there's no 64-bit ADODB drivers available that I can find. &nbsp;So, I need to run the website as 32-bit. &nbsp;But when I set the website's application pool to 'allow 32-bit applications', I get this error message: &quot;The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.&quot;<br />
<br />
I have enabled and checked the 'failed request tracing log files', but no files appear. &nbsp;I have allowed 'everyone' full access permissions to the inetpub folder and subfolders, but that did not work.<br />
<br />
Attached is the applicable .config files from the C:\windows\system32\inetsr<wbr />v\config and C:\inetpub\temp\appPools folders, but I renamed them to .txt files<br />

Thanks!!<br />

Run 32-bit ASP on SBS / Server 2008 64-bit edition

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.

Windows Server 2008

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.
