Re: IIS default web site asp page permission problem

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

Hmm, that sounds like an administrator kind of a thing to do. So if the
authentication is anonymous or if you are authenticating as a user who is
not an administrator, this is not suprising.

You don't need to be concerned about it. In fact, I would just delete
localstart.asp.

You only need to be concerned if you add pages of your own that don't work
as you intended.

Permission Denied Error on Local Default Web Page
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/251361

I have seen this myself. I looked at the ProgID of the object it was
trying to create, and remembered being unsuprised. However, I do not
recall what that ProgID was. What do you have on line 40?

I just set up IIS in Windows XP Pro, but I keep getting the error below
when going to the localhost site.

HTTP 500.100 - Internal Server Error - ASP error
Internet Information Services

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A0046)
Permission denied: 'GetObject'
/localstart.asp, line 40

Page:
GET /localstart.asp


I have looked at localstart.asp and determined by commenting out that
line 40 which is:

Set oDefSite = GetObject(sPath)

is the problem. Somehow I do not have permission using the GetObject()
subroutine. Every other subroutine in the file works just fine. How do
I change permissions in IIS to get permission to use GetObject()?
