Classic ASP Not Installed by Default on IIS

7.0 and above

One of the challanges of running IIS on your own server vs. running it in the cloud is that you
need to install the components you need manually, and it can sometimes be tricky figuring out
what needs to be installed to get the functionality you need. For example, in IIS, the classic
version of ASP is not installed by default. Because of this, you might see HTTP 404 errors when
you try to browse to an ASP page on your server, or you might see the source code for your ASP
page displayed in your browser window. Both of these error conditions are created when
configuration settings that are used to define the environment for classic ASP are not installed.

To support and configure ASP applications on your Web server, you must install the ASP
module. To install the ASP module on IIS, use the following steps for your version of Windows.
