Hi

I've installed MDAC 2.8 and the .NET Framework SDK, and am trying to access
the ASP.NET Quickstart tutorial (http://localhost/quickstart/ASPPlus/). I
open the web page in the start menu (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\Samples\StartSamples.htm on my computer) and then
click on the 'ASP.Net QuickStarts' link, but get a 403 error - not
authorized to view the page. I've checked that all my permissions are okay -
IUSR_<machine name> has write permission on C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Visual Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\quickstart, still no joy. Does anyone have
any idea what's wrong? I have also run C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\Samples\Setup\ConfigSamples.exe

Thanks much
Joe

Open "Control Panel" -> "IIS Services";

Right click "aspplus" under "QuickStart" (should be there if setup OK), click "Property";

Click "Documents" tab, add one more default load page as "default.aspx".

Do the same thing for each virtual site seperatly, they all have need to add default.aspx as default page.

Try adding default.aspx to the default document list of this virtual directory via the IIS MMC.

Regards,

Pete.
