FP: Registration Form not Supported on IIS Web Server This article was written about products for which Microsoft no longer offers support. Therefore, this article is offered "as is" and will no longer be updated.
This article was previously published under Q155770 For a Microsoft FrontPage 2000 version of this article, see 208637 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/208637/EN-US/). For a Microsoft FrontPage 98 version of this article, see 194452 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/194452/EN-US/). SYMPTOMS
If you try to use the FrontPage Registration WebBot in on a
Web site running the Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) or
Microsoft Personal Web Server, you may receive the following error message
when viewing the properties of the page:
This server does not support registered end users.
CAUSE
Internet Information Server and Microsoft Personal Web Server do not
allow users to register through a browser for access to a Web.
MORE INFORMATION
IIS requires that all users, authors, and administrators of a FrontPage
Web have valid Windows NT accounts. User accounts can only be created by
a Windows NT administrator using User Manager. The HyperText Transport
Protocol (HTTP) does not support creating user accounts.
When you create a registration Web, you ask the server to create and update a list of registered users based on input from HTTP browsers. IIS is not designed to support the creation of registered users without creating a corresponding Windows NT account. For additional information about how to create a registration page for use with Web servers that support this feature, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 143092 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/143092/EN-US/) FP: How to Create a Registration Web
