I'm updating a site from asp.net 2.0 to asp.net 4.0.
I'm running IIS 7.0.
If I create test.asp and browse to it it works.
If I rename the file test.html it will not parse the asp.
I need html to be parsed as asp because of the CMS we use.
Relevant code from test.html:
<%
Response.Write ("The time on the server is: " & Time())
%>
I think my trouble comes from the way .net 4.0 handles requests.
How do I get IIS to parse html as asp?
You will need to associate the same DLL that currently handles your .asp pages to also handle your .html pages in IIS. see here for help with that
I don't see the connection between ASP and .NET here.
Are you trying to figure out why the ASP engine is not processing a file with the .HTML extension?
When you name a file with the .ASP extension, it will be processed by the ASP engine. When you name a file with some other extension, like .HTML, it will not be processed by the ASP engine so any ASP-specific markup in it will go through to the client.
