Question

Why isn't #Include working on .asp page on IIS7?

Answer 1

A:

Try using file instead of virtual:

<!--#include file="../test_included.txt"-->

or

<!--#include file="test_included.txt"-->

depending on where your file is.

I'm also assuming classic ASP support has been enabled for your IIS7 server as I'm pretty sure it isn't there by default.

Can you see the directive when you view source in the browser? That might tell you if it is being ignored or if it is just failing.

I tried the file="" already (both ways, thinking that maybe the 'server root" wasn't the same as the www root) and got the same results.the directive  does not appear in the .asp page when I browse to it. So it's falling out completely.

Answer 2

+1 A:

More info: it looks like the issue is that Includes are disabled by default. I figured out that I can get to the Handler Setting in the IIS7 Manager but it's telling me that I have to manage them direclty in the config file b/c the site is in a shared app pool running in Classsic mode.

How many programmers does it take to fix this problem? None. It's a an IT problem.
