asp vs asp.net

[Mikey]

We recently went from a Windows 2000 Server to a Windows 2003 Server. Apparently 2003 runs ASP.NET where as 2000 ran ASP. Will I have to (or should I) rewrite all the ASP code to .NET code?

Right now I can't get the old code to run. All I did was move the web site from one system to the other. I am getting Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0125' my Include file was not found.

I'm guessing this all has something to do with the IIS?

Can someone head me in the right direction to fix this problem?

Thanks

ASP.NET is backwards compatible. The error sound like a compilation error rather than an unsupported feature. I'm not aware of any deprecations of ASP in ASP.NET. It's a nicer IDE environment though I'll tell you that much.

So I should still be able to use the Include Statement?

<!-- #Include file="include/calendar.asp" -->

ASP Error 0126 - Include file not found.

It's there, always was....

try "include virtual" instead of "include file"

Great. Thanks. Tried it this morning and it worked.

Why is that? In a nut shell.....

file uses the current dir, virtual uses the virtual path to the root dir. hey maybe file would work if you used \ instead of /
