Thanks for trying to help. We uninstalled and reinstalled IIS to resolve the issue.

Sounds like overkill, should be easier to fix than that.

What is the root folder for http://myserver/?

Is "reports" an actual subdirectory for that root folder or a virtual directory? What is its physical path?

Default.asp is an application. There is only 1 page.

This problem started after one of the developers was doing some troubleshooting on another site on IIs.

Both he and I have looked at it plenty. He thinks we we need to reinstall IIS.

Are you 100% sure that default.asp is served when the browser requests http://MyServer/reports?

Hello,

This problem could be caused using URL rewriting, so check if you have used that.

Greetings!

I have an ASP application with the home page named "default.asp". So the URL looks something like this:

"http://MyServer/reports"

And this works perfect! But

"http://MyServer/reports/default.asp"

reports back "The system cannot find the file specified."

Makes no sense! I suspect that someone modified the IIS configuration, but I know not what.

I've seen plenty of post with this error, but still can't find an error in my configuration.

Thank You!
