  HTTP Error 404 when access dwt (Dynamic Web Templates) in IIS 6 Reply Contact Hi, I just rebuilt a friends webserver and we have searched high/low for a solution.  We know what is causing our 404 error, its because IIS doens't have the mime type for .dwt defined yet.  However, we are trying to find the correct association so that the form opens using the frontpage extensions and isn't simply downloaded to the client using application/octet-stream. When we first setup the site many moons ago, we had the appropriate mime-type association, we had a crash over the weekend and our backups were corrupt.  :-(  We had a backup of all the website content, just missing this one final component to be back in 100% working order. Any assistance to resolve this problem will be greatly appreciated.  We have searched for hours without success here and across the web.  Thanks, Steve

I was able to finally find the solution to the problem.  The correction to the problem was to set the mime type to text/html.  Now the form displays as expected. Steve
