You're in the
iis security
group:Blocking .EXE
iis security:
an IIS 6 win2k3 site: IIS5 executed it fine. URLSCAN not installed, though this behavior is the same as an earlier post (June20) referred. If I set the folder perms to "scripts only" then I get the dialog box asking if I want to download the .exe or .dll file. So, the behavior seen is as-if I were running URLSCAN and it was blocking with a 404 message. Does IIS 6 have URLSCAN built-in or ????
hmmmmm... I checked that first thing, in IIS services
mmc, and the .exe file type is a registered mime type in the list for the server. That seems to contradict the verbiage in the KB article reference, but there's a list of mime-types just like previous versions, and .exe is one of them... ? I also found some GPO references about "adjusting memory quotas", and "replacing process level tokens" in the IIS 6 help, and I've done those without changing the result.

OK, I found it: in the IIS 6 help I must admit.
In order to run CGI applications, you must go to the IIS mgr, highlight the server, and then web service extensions folder. You can then "allow" all cgi, or, what I did, is explicitly allow just the one executable you'd like to run by specifically entering the path, and then the 404s go away... You must, of course, do all the other file/folder perms and such as before, but this step as well. dave [quoted text, click to view] >-----Original Message-----

woohoo! Someone who reads the IIS6 Help! :-)
There's lots of useful tips in the Troubleshooting section. As well as reading just the section on App Pools will save you some headache later on should you start using more of IIS6's capabilities. -- //David This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. // [quoted text, click to view] "dave" <dlbrum@ufl.edu> wrote in message OK, I found it: in the IIS 6 help I must admit.news:287f01c33f34$6bc92720$a401280a@phx.gbl...

A "405 Method Not Allowed" usually means that you're trying to POST against
a URL that is deemed a static file by IIS. What that means is that .idq files (or whatever FPSE needs for Web Search) is not registered as a ScriptMap (so it's treated as a static file instead). Index Server isn't installed by default, so you'll have to make sure to install it (which should set up the ScriptMap) and enable it. You have to do the same with FrontPage. -- //David This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. // [quoted text, click to view] "dave" <dlbrum@ufl.edu> wrote in message news:09b001c34004$01d7e9c0$a001280a@phx.gbl... well, only as a last resort, you understand.
