ASP website not working in IIS7 on server 2008 SBS
I have a website done with ASP. The website works fine in 2000 server IIS5 and Server 2003 IIS6 and Server 2008 Standard with IIS7. However I am unable to get my Website to run on Server 2008 SBS.
I have the site set up as a virtual directory under the default website. I created an application pool too.
When trying to run the site I get the following error.
"An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator. If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error."
When I click on the "click here" it takes me to a help page about enabling ASP but ASP is already enabled by default on SBS.
Any suggestions on how to get my site to work.

Is the site configured for the proper version of the .Net Framework? Can you browse the site from IIS itself, or does that error too.

The site is not in don net just ASP.
Is classic ASP enabled in IIS on your server?
ASKER
Classic ASP is enabled.
Okay, can you browse the site from within IIS (right-click and "Browse")? Do you get any other error messages?
ASKER
I can brows to the home page which is a login page. That is where the error occurs. If i try to log in i ge the same error and that is as far as I can go.
Does the login page require SSL? Is a certificate configured? Does the login page require anything else (like an external component or somesuch) which might be missing?
ASKER
SSL not required. Not sure what you mean buy an external compnent. If you mean a database for the login, its all there.
