instead of using this C:\inetpub\wwwroot\myweb

type in your browser http://localhost/myaspfile.asp

wwwroot directory
works as the root (the place from where you start)

so any file inside it accessed directly after typing localhost

as localhost points directly to wwwroot directly

You don't need windows ulitmate Marseline. Your lecturer is a dope.

1. On 64bit machines, you need to make sure that your application pool allows 32bit applications.

2. Make sure that your iis installation in 'turn on and off windows features' has asp ticked under world wide web services->Application Development features.

No offence to you intended Marseline.
I have had classic asp run successfully on all windows 7 platforms from home premium to professional to ultimate, and both 32 and 64bit so all all I'm saying is upgrade is unnecessary - and your lecturer is wrong in saying that it is necessary.

First up if you need to work with MYSQL, download the odbc connectors. They are 32bit and dependant on 32bit application pool in classic mode.
I suggest you ditch asp because it has been ditched by microsoft in preference to .NET which has now graduated to c# Razor MVC. If you are comfortable with javascript you would probably be better using PHP with MYSQL.
If classic asp is your requirement then I recommend you dev a guestbook or something basic in MVC approach - that is keep your back end code in classes and functions, separate from your layouts. Read your layout snippets from a folder replacing variables in placeholders.
