Solution+Evaluation

Our group is working closely with Steven Thomas (our project manager) to resolved compatibility issues of moving from IIS5 to IIS7. One particular issue that we were able to resolve was hosting classic ASP on IIS7. Since IIS7 use Application Pool to identify profile and temporary directory instead of using \windows\temp in IIS5, we kept having validation error every time we try to host website with classic ASP setup. After extended research, we resolved this problem by downloading ASP 1.1 FrameWork and modifying the web.config file. We are also facing database connection problem. Steven is installing a client software so we can access to his DB2 databases.
