I tried posting this message yesterday morning, but it still has not appeared. I am in need of help. Can anyone at Microsoft lend a hand?
I am trying to set up a new testing server (running Windows Server
2003 R2)
for remote debugging of my aspnet applications with Visual
Studios 2005, but
am encountering problems with Front Page Server
Extensions.
When I
first try to extend the site, either through IIS (with the
Configure Server
Extensions 2002 task) or the Microsoft SharePoint
Administrator link, the IE
browser seems to hang while trying to open
fpadmdll.dll from the Microsoft
SharePoint Administration site which
was installed with fpse. However the
extension appears to have been
successful since if I try again I can now
access the Site
Administration Page after entering the username and password.
Once
here, I try to create a subweb specifying the same permission as
for
the parent web, but upon submitting it prompts me for the username
and
password then takes me to a page that says:
You are not authorized to
view this page
You do not have permission to view this page using your
current user
account.
Please try the following:
- If you have another
user account with a higher level of permission, click your browser's Back
button to try again using that account.
- If you believe you should be able
to view this page, contact the Web site administrator.
If it's a
file permission issue, I'm not sure where it lies. I
experimented with
giving all users full control on the following files
C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\web server
extensions\50\isapi
C:\Program
Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web
server
extensions\50\_vti_bin
but that made no
difference.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Front Page
Server Extensions
2002 but no change. Incidentally, I had used IIS 6.0
migration tool
to copy the sites and contents over from another IIS 6.0
server (on
Windows 2003 SP1 previously upgraded from Windows 2000), but that server was not Front Page extended so
I don't think the migration was the issue.
Can anyone help?
