Question

I have a Windows 7 laptop. On that laptop I installed Visual Studio 2010. I do know that I can’t run classic ASP on VS, but…
I created a ASP.NET project in VS and ran it from the C: drive. I have my classic ASP site on the G: drive.
So what I tried is to use:

localhost:53345///G:/home/igor/myhomepage.asp

But I received an error ‘Bad Request’.

Is there a way of doing what I want?

Thank you.

You have to setup the site so that the ASP Classic code is executed by the webserver.

Use the following guide for this:

Running classic ASP on IIS 7

After you have setup ASP Classic for IIS, just add a site and point it to the directory where the ASP files are. In de default IIS setup you can also place you ASP files in the C:\inetpub\wwwroot like Farhan suggested.
