I am trying to run this simple script through IIS. Y wont it work? I've used this code a 100 times in the past?

code below:::::

<%
response.write "File is writing"
Dim fs, ts
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set ts=fs.CreateTextFile("C:\myLogs\log.txt", True)
ts.WriteLine "TEST"
ts.close
Set fs=Nothing
response.write "File Written"
%>

the scritpt doesn't work for some reason. I try to load it (http://localhost/devs/file.asp)
and it just keeps trying to load. It wont actuall excute this script.
I tried a simple script like a simple response.write and it worked. So I dont think its an IIS 5.1 problem.

PS: i tied running it as both an admin user and a normal user. Same result

this is the kind of code i use for writing to a text file

(Toggle Plain Text)

	filename=Server.mappath("\pathtofile\log") & ".txt"
	Set fs = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
	Set file = fs.opentextfile(filename,8,true)
	file.writeline
	file.write "TEST"
	file.Close
	set file=nothing
	set fs=nothing
