title: How to setup existing asp site in ISS with MS Access database?
body: <p>I need to migrate an old .asp site onto our new server (Server Essentials 2016). 
  The site runs off an Access database and is currently hosted in IIS on a windows 7 pro machine. 
  I have enabled asp.net 4.6 on the new server and copied the whole website from the old server (Windows 7 Pro) into an equivalent directory on the new server, (C:\inetpub\wwwroot - I know it's not best practice to store the site here but I am eliminating variables to get the site working - once it works, I'll move it...). 
  Plain HTML pages now work fine, so the sites folder is clearly accessible but any page that needs to access the database gives an error 500 - both from the server's own browser and from other PC's on the network... The site and it's database are both in the same wwwroot folder and have an identical filepath to that on the windows 7 machine so the only thing different is the computer name and OS. 
  I have multiple other (php) sites running on the new server but cannot get this asp site to work!</p>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong? Short of rewriting the whole site in php I'm stuck! </p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
