Hi All,
I’m currently having a problem getting ASP to run on the Windows Mobile Web Server for Windows Mobile 6.*
I downloaded the redistributable server components for windows Mobile 5.0 and copied over the ttpd.AMD.cab file to my mobile device and then installed it.
If I go into the settings and remove programs I can see the Microsoft Web Server is listed in the programs. If I go into programs I see no icon for the web server however I’m not sure if I should see anything here.
When I browse through my folders I can see there is a folder \windows\www\wwwpub and there is a default.htm page present. If I open this page up in my browser and I get the default message “The Windows CE web Server is enabled on this devices”
I created an empty ASP page called default.asp. I did not add any asp code in the page just the standard html tags; head, body etc. I tried to open this page in my browser and I get the following error:
“There is no application associated with “default”. Run the application first, then open the file from within the application.”
I did a google search and found the following topic:
social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsmobiledev/thread/badd1c7c-117a-478e-82e4-20ba08e30cc8
From this information I downloaded and installed the httpd.ARM.cab file.
I then checked to make sure the asp.dll, jscript.dll and vbscript.dll is present in the \windows folder, which they are present.
I tried my default.asp page again and got the same error.
At this point I’m guessing that I need some registry entries to associate the .asp extension with the Windows Mobile Web Server so I followed the instructions found here:
msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee499507.aspx
I downloaded a registry tool for my device:
www.wmexperts.com/articles/howto/how_to_edit_the_registry.html
using the above tool I navigated to the:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\HTTPD] I then added a key :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\HTTPD\ScriptMap]
and added the following string value:
“.asp”=”\windows\asp.dll”
Retested my default.asp page and still got the same error.
I’m at a loss on where to go next.
My questions are as follows:
Am I missing out a stage in the process to get this to work?
Does anyone know what else I can try to get an asp page to work with the windows mobile web server?
Any help with this would be much appreciated.
Regards
David
