Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)
Hi

I have a problem with IIS6. It does not find the file
http://localhost/Test/045. Seals & Jackal.jpg
If I rename the file to SealsJackel.jpg then it is found. Might be the
ampersand - but why? Even if I encode it like
045.%20Seals%20%26%20Jackal.jpg the file is not found.
IIS5 has no problem to find the file.

Any ideas?
Stephan

If "Seals" has a "." before it then you need to add a mime type for ". Seals
& Jackal.jpg"

Actually I just tried it myself and it turned out that I was wrong.

Is 045 a folder or the first part of the file name?

I was successfully able to view a picture named "hi. test this & this.JPG"
using IIS 6. What's the exact 404?

What is the 404 substatus code? That will give us some idea of why IIS6 is
rejecting the request.

Cheers
