SYMPTOMS
When Ilsbud.asp, Ilslist.asp, Ilsmps.asp or Shptop.asp is called from the Internet Locator Server (ILS) 2.0 sample templates on an ILS 3.0 server, one of the following error messages may be displayed in the Web browser:

The Internet Locator Server must be installed on the Web server in order to use this page. Please contact the Webmaster for this site.

-or-

The Microsoft Personalization System must be installed on the Web server in order to use this page. Please contact the Webmaster for this site.

-or-

HTTP 500.100 - Internal Server Error - ASP error Error Type: Server object, ASP 0177 (0x800401F3) Invalid ProgID. /ils/userlist.asp, line 3

Please note that these error messages affect all ASP pages that use the ms.ils or mps.PropertyDatabase objects.



CAUSE
Due to changes in the internal data structure of ILS 2.0 and ILS 3.0 servers, the ILS 2.0 objects no longer function, and therefore are not included in ILS 3.0.



WORKAROUND
The following workarounds are available to display ILS user information from an ASP page:

Method 1
Create a custom COM object to access data from the ILS server. A sample COM object is available from the link below:

Microsoft scanned this file for viruses. Microsoft used the most current virus-detection software that was available on the date that the file was posted. The file is stored on security-enhanced servers that help to prevent any unauthorized changes to the file. You can use this sample to send a NetMeeting client the information necessary to establish a call with a specified user who is registered on the ILS server.

Method 2
Use ADSI to access the ILS server. Copy the following sample to an IIS 5.0 ASP file named Ilsusers.asp:

ILS User List

NOTE: Netscape has chosen not to support the CALLTO protocol. As a result, a Netscape browser interprets any anchor with href=callto:// as a link to a local path, appending the hyperlink to the end of the BASE URL of the site that the browser is currently viewing. Additional information and workarounds for users with Netscape browsers are provided in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base Article:

MORE INFORMATION
The following link provides updated ASP pages, which are similar in functionality to the Ilslist.asp and Ilsfind.asp samples provided in the NetMeeting 3.0 SDK and ILS 2.0 sample templates. These pages rely on the CALLTO protocol, and are therefore only recommended for use with Internet Explorer and other browsers that support the CALLTO protocol.
