Re: How do I configure IIS for the following?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Each virtual directory has to be set up as an application. This can be done
programatically, if you wish to take the time, or you can open the Internet
Services Manager and set up each directory as an application.

Open ISM
Expand Default website
Find folder
Right click
On the directory tab, click Create - Execute permissions should be scripts
only

How do I configure IIS for the following.

I have a directory called base and then several directories at the next
level down corresponding to versions of my ASP app.

I.e.
BASE
Ver1.0
Ver1.1
...
Ver1.n

Each Ver... directory has my complete ASP project in it. I want the URL to
a specific version to be, for example, http://localhost/Ver1.0/login.asp.
Currently, I have WEBshared BASE and given it an alias. However, invoking
this URL gives me the error below. Any idea how to get this to work? I'm
trying to order various project versions without having them as a long
list in IIS.

Many thanks.
