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
When you use the Web Administration tool to create an expiration policy, you may receive the following error saving the change:

error 'ASP 0115'

Unexpected error

A trappable error occurred in an external object. The script cannot continue running.

In some cases, the browser may stop responding or one or more frames may become disabled (grayed out).

NOTE: This ONLY occurs on the addition of the FIRST expiration policy. If the computer is rebooted, the expiration policy is in place, and the Web Administration tool will allow subsequent policies to be added.



WORKAROUND
Create the first expiration policy using the Microsoft Management Console.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Information Server version 4.0.
