ASP Page Not Update Even if the File Included in it Has Been Changed

This article was previously published under Q163761
We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003. IIS 6.0 significantly increases Web infrastructure security. For more information about IIS security-related topics, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

SYMPTOMS

The Microsoft Active Server Page (ASP) page will not update even if the file included in it has been changed. No problem exists if the file included in the ASP file is in the same virtual root as the ASP file.

WORKAROUND

Put the included files in the same virtual root as the ASP file. Included files and the ASP file can be in different subdirectories as long as they share the same virtual root.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Information Server version 3.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

APPLIES TO
  • Microsoft Internet Information Server 3.0

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
