IISD and Running ASP Page

Can somebody help out. I have tried running my asp pages on IIS here on my
windows xp system


Just upgraded from window-98 where I was using Personal Web Web Server. My
asp pages were executing ok.

Now I understand you have to use IIS in windows XP.

When I type in : HTTP://localhost/index.html, this page works okay

When I try a simple script like : % response.write "Hello Page" %>

which is in file test.asp, I run this: HTTP://localhost/test.asp.

I get the following message from either IE 6.or Netscape:

Server Application Error
The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the
processing of your request. Please refer to the event
log for more detail information. Please contact the server administrator for
assistance.


I look at the log file and it display this message:

13:07:15 66.185.85.76 GET /harry/test.asp 500
13:07:23 66.185.85.76 GET /test.asp 500

What have I done wrong. I have the following settings in my default web
site:

Give access for scripting and writing.
I have installed Frontpage2002 extensions:

I really need to do some asp scripting and I am at a lost.

I cannot install Personal Web Sever since Windows XP does not support it


Any HELP would be appreciated
