Information
IIS on installation creates a folder called ‘Inetpub’ on your hard drive; under Inetpub there is another folder called ‘wwwroot’. The wwwroot folder is the root folder for your website. By default, the folders are placed on your C drive,
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot. You can copy the code below into a new file called 'test.aspx' and place in the wwwroot folder.<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<script runat="server">
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
lblVersion.Text = "Your server is running ASP.NET and the version is " & System.Environment.Version.ToString()
End Sub
</script>
<html>
<head>
<title>ASP.NET Version</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:Label ID="lblVersion" runat="server"></asp:Label>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Open your browser and type in
http://www.localhost/test.aspx. If it runs and works then everything's fine and the version is written to the browser programmatically.
