I know this is lunixland, but would any of you guys know any IIS stuff? I'm hacking around with IIS5 and the .net framework sdk to figure out how the web stuff meets the database stuff. In any case, the problem I'm having is that .aspx (ASP.net) files are rendering properly in-browser but when I try to pull up a .asp file the browser reports a 500 error. I checked the site properties in IIS and it's set to handle .asp in addition to the other types, but only .aspx files are loading properly.

What am I missing?

In the MMC go to:
(your website)->properties->Home directory tab->configuration button->app mappings tab

There should be a .asp mapping with these properties:
Executable: C:\WINNT\System32\inetsrv\asp.dll
Extension: .asp
Limit to: GET,HEAD,POST,TRACE
Script Engine: checked
Check that file exists: unchecked

Add it if there isnt. Now, exit that mapping properties screen and go to the App debugging tab. Make sure the "Send detailed ASP error messages to client" tab is highlighted (way fucking helpful for debugging).
