| Hi everyone,
I have an ISAPI application taht run perfectly on IIS 5 refuse to start
on IIS 6. I spent a lotof time trying to configure it, I think I need a

run an ISAPI application.
Any help will be appreciate

| The IIS product documentation and basic troubleshooting guide is a good
place to start. Hit F1 in the IIS Manager UI to get there.

| Serge,
ISAPI runs under the same security context as IIS...soooo...IIS 5 runs under
the Local Account which has full privileges. IIS 6 runs under NETWORK
Service which has more restricted privileges. To test if this is the problem
you can change the Identity that IIS 6 runs as back to Local Account. Go to
IIS Manager select the application pool that your web server is using for
the web site in question select properties, under the Identity tab is where
you can change it.
Even if this works you may want to look at your ISAPI code to see what may
have caused the problem so it can be better structured or rewritten to be in
line with best security practices.
Best of luck with this,
Gery

| Just to clarify -- what you said only applies to ISAPI Filter. ISAPI
Extension never works like that.
