403 on IIS6

Win2003 SP1/IIS6

Setting up a new web server, created a new web site and uploaded an asp.net
site. When browsing any page I get a 403 You have attempted to execute a
CGI, ISAPI, or other executable program from a directory that does not allow
programs to be executed. This happens live on the web and locally on the
server.

Things I've tried
1/ Followed steps to enable asp.net in iis help
2/ Checked asp.net 1.1 and 2 show as allowed under Web Services Extensions
3/ Right clicking web sites and clicking filters show asp.net 1.1 and 2 as
loaded
4/ Tried enabling asp and testing a simple "hello world" page - same result.
5/ Tried a hello world aspx page on the default web site, browsing to it
remotely by IP shows the page fine - other site uses host headers
6/ Tried uninstalling FP extensions - no change
7/ Tried pointing a spare domain to the server and creating another new web
site with just a hello world default page - same result

The issue seems to be some difference in the config of the default web site
vs the new sites but I just can't see it. Out of ideas at this point.

Thanks for any suggestions,
Jon

Re: 403 on IIS6

Sound to me like either you need to check the Execute Permissions on the Web
Site.

Open Internet Information Services MMC
Select the web site
right click and select properties
go to the Home Directory tab
Check the "Execute Permissions"

Sounds like it is set to NONE

Re: 403 on IIS6

Hi,
There isn't anything resembling an Execute Permissions option on the home
directory tab. I have
Script source access unchecked
read checked
write checked
directory browsing checked
log visits checked
index this resource checked

Cheers,
Jon

Re: 403 on IIS6

Really? Not in the "Application settings" area? It doesn't look like this:
