I had a search form set up on our Website which worked
flawlessly on IIS in Windows 2000 Server. After we got a new
server with Windows Server 2003 loaded, one of our guys copied
the Website structure over.
There are three files involved:
search.htm (The search form)
query.idq (The processing file)
query.htx (The results template)
All three files are in the same folder, as they were on the
old server.
Now whenever I enter a search term and click "Submit," I get
"The page cannot be found."
I've rebuilt the catalog and the index.
It works fine on the server itself, but the Web page (search.htm)
gets me nowhere.
Please help!
Answer:
Windows 2003 IIS disables all extended functionality by
default. MS calls it "secure out of the box". To modify this
setting, use the Web Services Extensions node in the IIS
Managers MMC snap-in, and enable the Indexing Service.
