Thanks ot Jim Buyens for helping me fix my other problem,
but, in doing so, he introduced me to a new poblem.
My main page loads with no problems now, but I can't get
the rest to open correctly. I am greeted with a "ASP 0131"
error (invalid parent path). Says I can't have ".." as a
parent path. FP02 is the one that set that path.
How do I fix it??
Parent pathing refers to the capability of ASP code to resolve paths
relative to the current directory (using the ..\ notation).
Enabling parent pathing constitutes a security risk because the ASP
code can determine the physical path of -- and then potentially open
-- critical or confidential files outside the application's root
directory.
IIS 1.0 - 5.0 permitted parent pathing by default. IIS 6.0 (Windows
Server 2003) blocks it by default. Given the timing or releases,
FrontPage 2002 and earlier excpect the IIS 5.0 default.
There are two ways to resolve this problem:
o Ask the server administrator to follow the instructions under
Enabling
Parent Paths at:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/
windowsserver2003/proddocs/standard/ca_configasp.asp
o Find the ASP statement that contains ".." in a URL, and change
the URL so it doesn't include a "..". For example, change:
../fpdb/mydb.mdb
to
/myweb/fpdb/mydb.mdb
