ASPRunnerPro General questions
T
 Toad author

I have installed ASP runner, set up links to the sql2000 database and it runs over the LAN perfectly. How exactly is this published to IIS and how do I view it over the Web?
I have noticed that ASP runner apears in IIS as a virtual directory but how does my defulat page at C:\Inetpub\wwwroot point to the asp's? I tried creating a link to the defulat.asp in C:\Program Files\ASPRunnerPro\Output but nothing happens.
I have no experience with IIS so unsure what to do next.
Thank you.

Toad,

You need to open the IIS manager, then drill down to your web site, right click on it and choose properties. Next click on the Home Directory tab and choose the radio button "A share located on another computer." Enter your UNC in the space provided, OK the changes and restart the service. You may/will have to setup user permissions to get that server to see the share on the remote server.

You have two options here:

  1. Choose C:\Inetpub\wwwroot as an output directory in ASPRunner. You will be able to access ASP pages by typing http://localhost in your browser.
  2. Use ASPRunner to create virtual directory named ASPRunner that you can point to C:\Program Files\ASPRunnerPro\Output (or any other directory). In this case type http://localhost/asprunner in your browser to test ASP pages.
    You don't have to do anything special with IIS.
