Does it work through FrontPage if the IIS is a LOCAL host?
I don't know anything about .NET framework
I installed IIS with the "quiet install" provided from
the download.
Thank you.

Actually I used to have this problem until I figured out
this about FP Extensions 2002 and FP the Office Product
1. Use Frontpage to set up the Virtual Directory/Subweb
(it does it the cleanest without you having to access the
Main Frontpage Admin Web Site)
2. When creating sites from Internet Service manager,
CLOSE IIS after creating a virtual web. Just to be safe.
(The IIS admin interface creates a similar to the FP Web
Admin interface error). In order to fix the Web interface
problem, you only need to close your browser windows AND
Frontpage/Word/Excel (whatever MIGHT open an Inet
session). Do a SERVER HEALTH/PERMISSIONs check and DETECT
AND REPAIR all settings. Error will dissapear (for now
that is)
3. If you use the FP Web Tool make sure you do the following:
* Remove/un-install previous versions of .NET and all
earlier versions of FP Extension (Preferred but not
really required)
* Then install .NET framework (If you plane to use ASP.NET) (Reboot)
* Give domain admins/ASP.NET account (or your account)
full access to the WWWRoot (Click RESET AND APPLY TO
SUBFOLDERS in advanced)
* After installing FP Extension 2002, Install the
Sercity Hotfix for it. (Reboot)
* In the Internet Service Manager tool (Admin tools),
right click the server and choose (MANAGE/CREATE/UPGRADE
FP 2002. This way the ENTIRE server is now updated (Not
just the DEFAULT web site).
* Now use the Web Interface EXTEND the FP entensions to
the site (If not already done for you). Add DOMAIN/your
account to as an ADMINISTRATOR inside of FP 2002.
