Dear Farzad Hayaty.
I have checked all the 10 steps you told me about, and
everything was the same as you have stated. I have to
inform you that when I am adding a web page to wwwRoot
folder and naming it default.asp for example, am being
able to connect to localhost normally. But my concern is
that by default there should be some sort of welcome pages
created by IIS in the wwwRoot folder that the user should
see after connecting to localhost without the presence of
any pages in wwwRoot of his creation. Those welcome pages
that the user should see are I guess localstart.asp and
iisstart.asp.
And by the way, if i want to view any pages located in
wwwRoot and named anything different than default or
index, how can i do that. For example what is the url of
localstart.asp which is located in wwwRoot.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Have the best of my regards

M. Ayyad.
 
Dear Midos,

first at all you can refresh your url several time!
(my be your dllhost.exe file could not be loaded!)
also this problem usually occurred when
1- your iis documentation damaged
2- your asp compiler have problem

try to:
reinstall iis Documentation:
in add/rem software -> windows components -> IIS Details -> Documentation
reinstall iis:
in add/rem software -> windows components -> IIS Details -> world wide web
server

if you have problem with aps processing try to:
reinstall Common Files:
in add/rem software -> windows components -> IIS Details -> Common Files

if default document was enabled iis by default search for default pages that
are listed in:
default web site properties panel -> documents tab -> default document
you can also add some custom page name

default pages are:
default.htm
default.asp
iisstart.asp

listed by priority

for ex. if you have 2 page default.htm & default.asp and then you just type
http://localhost (or any other url under localhost) iis by default priority
load default.htm for you!
if you disable default page you must specify page name to load.


your wwwroot url by default is: http://localhost/
when you add a page in root directory, for example you
insert a file named test.asp in root directory
(wwwroot directory by default is:
%systemdrive%\Inetpub\wwwroot
or share as: \\<your_computer_name>\wwwroot )
local path of your file is: %systemdrive%\Inetpub\wwwroot\test.asp
so url = http://localhost/test.asp

ex.:
local path is: %systemdrive%\Inetpub\wwwroot\dir1\file2.asp
url = http://localhost/dir1/file2.asp


some url on your iis by default:
iis documentation: http://localhost/iishelp
iis administration: http://localhost/iisadmin
your Printers Status : http://localhost/printers
certificate Server: http://localhost/CertSrv (available if you install
Sertificate Server)
terminal service : http://localhost/TSWeb (available if you install terminal
service web support)


Kind Regards,
Farzad Hayati.
