how to reset the IIS settings ..
- by infant programmer
I had been practicing ASP on my local machine..
I just wanted to change the TCP port address to 8080 and that is what I did, since then the URL "http://localhost/" is showing PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED,
and technical reason being shown is :
"You have attempted to execute a CGI, ISAPI, or other executable program from a directory that does not allow programs to be executed."
I tried to change back the TCP port address to 80, (which is default) but its not making any difference.
What should I do now, to make localhost to work as before ?
When I create a virtual directory for the same path "C:/InetPub/wwwroot" then it works but with this URL "http://localhost/virualname/filename.asp" .. where as "http://localhost/filename.asp" throws error, as mentioned above.
Can you please explain me what is this consequence is??
thank you :)
