404 error in IIS 7.5 when redirecting in a frame.

Question

I have IIS 7.5 on my Windows 7 x64 system. I have installed and properly configured IIS to allow me to run ASP.NET and Classic ASP. For some reason though, when i do a redirect from an ASP.NET page to a classic asp page I get a 404 error. I know the page is there. If I copy and paste the URL of the classic ASP page into the address bar, it goes there fine. Of course, the problem is that it expects to be in a frameset, so the pages go wonky on me.

Has anyone heard of this problem and/or know of a fix for it? It worked fine in IIS 6 on my XP station.

Thanks, Rob

Answer 1

Does this frame have an address bar? Are you sure the URL its attempting to load is really the one you're expecting? Right-click and look at page properties.
