server extensions on subdomain
|
|
|
| I am running IIS 5 on my webserver. I have server extensions installed on the
webserver and everything works fine like a charm including forms and their
submissions. For framing this question lets say my url is http://frontpage.com
I created as subdomain ( http://help.frontpage.com) which has a form in it.
I am facing the following problems.
1. When I try to open the subdomain via frontpage ( ver 2002) from my
desktop I get the message with a pop up window in frontpage
"The webserver at http://help.frontpage.com does not appear to have the
frontpage server extensions installed.
2. I tired installing the extensions on the subdomain on server.
Could anyone help with this problem?
Thanks y'all

| Is the subdomain a folder in the website, or on a separate (virtual)
server?
If it's a folder, open the root web in FrontPage, right click on the
folder and choose "Convert to web"
Then open the subweb (not subdomain) in FrontPage. All links to and
from the subdomain and rootweb must be absolute links
(http://subdomain.example.com, or http://example.com)
If the subdomain is on a separate server, then install the extensions
on that server.

| Ronx - Thank you for your prompt reply. On my server I created a new site by
going to Properties and new site, becuase I wanted to create a subdomain with
an abolute name such as http://subdomain.domain.com. I have do not have an
problem if I convert a folder to web.
In front page when I go to File > Openweb I do see the "subdomain.domain.com
however that is when I get the message about server extensions not being
installed.
Hope I was able to clarify my problem without creating any confusion. Hope
to hear from you.

| Also the subdomain ( http://subdomain.domain.com) is on the same server as
(http://domain.com)
In case you want to know how I created the subdomain. I right clicked on IIS
and New>Site and then the wizard came up which did the rest. Hope this added
info helps.
