IIS is probably not installed or not configured correctly. Make sure you enable IIS in Windows Features and you enable ISAPI and ASP functionality and IIS Metabase compatibility.

More info here (not specific to the Fox WS but same rules apply):

Hi Rick,

I'm trying to create a web service using VFP 9 sp2 and running into issues that maybe I'm missing something very simple or maybe one of your tools can do instead, I'm using a Windows 7 (32 bit) machine by the way. I was able to build the dll without errors and then I did the following:

- Opened "Task Pane Manager - XML Web Services"
- Clicked option "Publish your XML Web Service" to get the screen "Visual Foxpro XML Web Services Publisher" and selected my dll (COM server)
- Clicked the "Advanced" button to get the "Visual Foxpro XML Web Service Location" screen but not before getting an error "function argument value, type, or count is invalid" and from researching the code in "_ws3utils.vcx" I determined that the problem behind this was an errorr "800401ea: "Moniker cannot open file" and from researching the error it pointed me to not having IIS installed, and it wasn't so I installed it (using the control panel and "Turn windows features on or off") and went back to try it and it STILL gives the error(even after rebooting). Tried to play a little with permissions but not being a network guy I might not being doing things correctly.

am I going the wrong direction or is it something that one of your tools can do and generate a web service from foxpro?

Thanks,

Roy.
