error while Configuring XML Support in IIS with IIS 6.0

Hi,

I've two servers on which there is the SQL 2000 Server and the IIS 6.0.

I installed the SQL Server Client Tools on web server.

And created the nwind as told in booksonline.

I declared the SQLXML extention and allowed it using IIS 6.

But there is a problem with the virtual directory I created using the tool "Configure XML Support in IIS". Web server doesn't realize it as a virtual directory. Even a jpg or a text file is not served by the IIS.

The web server shows the following error.

ERROR: 500 Internal Server Error
HResult: 0x800706f4
Source: Microsoft SQL isapi extension
Description: Invalid virtual root settings

Thanks for any suggestions.Ok,

Do not use Client Tools any more on web server.

Instead, yuo can use SQLXML 3.0.

This solved my problem.|||Cool. Glad it's solved. The good news is that Yukon integrates all these features, so there won't be this kind of confusion. That is, if you can wait a year or so for Yukon!
