RE: [CFTALKTor] OT - IIS

[David Porter]

When I was upgrading a PC from 98SE to XP Pro, I had the same problem.  Installed and un-installed IIS a few times and it never seemed to work properly.   I had to: un-install IIS, make a backup CD of my C:\INETPUB directory (make sure you have a good backup!!  :-), delete the c:\INETPUB directory, re-boot and then re-install IIS.    For what ever reason, just using MS's IIS uninstall and re-install did not work for me.  It works ok for me now.  (And I have a backup CD of all my projects too)   Hope this helps, Dave -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mike Sent: Sunday, March 03, 2002 9:16 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [CFTALKTor] OT - IIS Sorry to be off topic, I was wondering if anyone has experienced this problem with IIS.  I am running 2000 pro with CF5 on my local machine.  But when I try to view a local page like 127.0.0.1/test.htm I get HTTP 500 Internal Server Error. I have tried uninstalling IIS and reinstaling it but that does not help.  When I look at the service is says starting?   Any suggestions?  I am sure that when Terry reads this he will say install Apache :)   TIA   Mike
