Question ID: 554779
The ASP system on my Windows Server 2003 System has stopped
functioning.  I have googled and googled and have failed to find a the
right fix.  Here's what happened.

1. I installed Kiwi Syslog, a logging software.
2. All ASP Pages using Scripting.Dictionary object start failing.  It
threw the following error:
"ActiveX component can't create object: 'Scripting.Dictionary'."
3. Unistalled Kiwi Syslog
4. ASP Pages still broken.
5. Decided to completely uninstall IIS
6. Reinstalled IIS
7. Now all ASP pages fail with error
"ASP 0201: Invaled default script language."
8. Googled around, tried a few things which we'll get to in a bit
9. Unistalled IIS again
10. Moved Inetpub directory away
11. Rebooted system
12. Reinstalled IIS
13. Created a basic temp.asp file with nothing but a response.write in it
14. Same "ASP201" error.
15. Tore hair out
16. Turned a different system into a temp web server and setup a redirect
17. Put up a posting on Google Answers

So I need help here.  Anyone who can help would save me a HUGE amount
of pain.  I have tried some solutions, they are below:

Apparently sometimes changing the default script from VBScript to
JavaScript and then back fixes the problem.  It did not fix my
problem.

The test.asp concept is a common suggestion to help debug, this also did not work.

There was a suspicion that a .DLL file had gone missing, but to the
best of my knowledge they are ok... I can't gaurantee this one, the
Kiwi software may indeed have messed with the .DLL files.

So anyone who has any idea on how to fix that doesn't require a clean
windows install please let me know.

Thank you,

Mandeep

Check to make sure the .asp file extensions are supported in IIS 6.0. 
Open the virtual server and go to properties.  Go to the "Home
Directory" tab and click on the Configuration button.  There you
should see a list of supported file extensions.

Just a shot in the dark.

try backing up your data and reinstalling IIS to make things easier for you

hi mdeeps-ga,

Look at this link

http://www.kiwisyslog.com/bugs.htm

I think your "Kiwi Syslog" software has bug so goto above link and download 
new version of Kiwi Syslog software. bugs might be fixed in new vesions.
first reinstall your IIS and then install it again the install new
vesion of this software.
i think it works fine as you go....
