Is that a rip or what? On EBay I am finding a set of 3 CDs called the MSDN Library for Visual Studio.Net 2003, for about $20. Does this include the help files? And why in the world is it sold without help to begin with? John W.

I had a bunch of different things installed, including VS 2001, the various 2005 betas and VS 2003, pretty much all at the same time. I uninstalled everything including IIS, purchased Registry Mechanic to clean up the registry, reinstalled IIS and then VS 2003. I am now able to serve a basic web page IF I place my old web site's Index.HTML etc. I see the basics of the old ColbyConsulting.com. So IIS appears to run. What I am getting ATM is a server error 500 when I try to build a new project. From everything I am reading is a general "it doesn't fit in any of my other errors" error. I have spent probably the last 8 hours messing around, then uninstalling, then re-installing, and still no closer to success. My machine boots noticeably faster though. ;-) So, can anyone help me get VS 2003 building and running an ASP.Net web project? John W.

The first thing to understand is that, at heart, I am an database analyst / programmer, operating in the ACCESS realm, not a network admin, not a web site developer, not a SQL Server admin etc. Therefore... My development machine is my laptop There has always been ONE user (that I use anyway) jwcolby Jwcolby is an admin I understand that there is an user named Admin (that I do not use) that is also an admin. I know NOTHING about IIS other than that I installed it from Add/Delete programs / Windows I have IIS installed on my machine, and it will serve a page if I navigate to http://localhost/ though it wouldn't even do that with just the default install. I had to place a default.html in the wwwroot to even get it to do that. I know next to nothing about SQL Server. It is installed and running, but I know nothing about users and security I know nothing about Windows Security (it is not my job and I haven't used it). I do that Windows has user groups (and I can make one) and users (and I can make one) and that users can belong to groups (and I can assign them to groups). I do NOT know how to assign users "rights" to a given directory on the disk. It seems that you would just be able to right click on a directory and get at the rights / users / groups stuff but I am not seeing how to do that. So.... To sum up and quote Sergeant Schultz... "I know naaaaaathing" Now.... I have VS 2003 installed. I have written a fair amount of stuff (several months playing around on small projects) in VB.Net, including things like getting my SysVars working, able to read in from a form, saved into SysVar classes, and written out to an XML file, loaded back in from the XML file etc. I am not an expert by any means. I have a DotNetNuke web page at www.colbyconsulting.com which is way cool, I love it, and I want to start developing some simple modules for it. In order to develop modules for DotNetNuke, I have to have DotNetNuke running on my machine. It is open source, you can download it and install it on your machine. I have downloaded it, but the install is not happening, probably because of all the things I do NOT know (mentioned above). But above all, it appears to be an issue of IIS playing nicely with ASP.Net, or perhaps NOT playing nicely would be more correct. So, given what I DON'T know, advice like: >I have always setup the website location, all the site properties and the 'ForwardLookupZone', in IIS, before the ASP.Net project was started. The process may be automated now but when the site is setup manually there has never had any problems. Just isn't very useful. I appreciate the effort but that statement might as well be classical Greek (which I also don't know anything about BTW). I THINK I need to get my ASPNET user some privileges to do things on my computer, OTOH I have already made it an administrator which doesn't help. Why it wasn't set up with the needed privileges is a mystery to me, it seems like if it should have the privileges, then it would be installed with them but that is a discussion for another day. Today I need to accept the sad fact that everyone involved in using this stuff expects everyone else involved in using this stuff to know stuff that I don't know. "I just want to turn on the faucet and have water come out". So if anyone can help me get ASP.NET playing with IIS, I appreciate your assistance, but it needs to be "step-by-step". Assume that "I know Naaaawthing". Thanks, John W.

The way that I have solved some problems is to high-light the directory where the web site will reside, right-mouse click the properties, select the security tab and make sure the user 'everyone' has required access to the folder. The rights should be the same as any 'anonymous' user except 'everyone' can also write to that directory. (You must be logged on as Administrator not as just a user with administrator rights.) I can almost bet that VS defaults to user 'everyone' when posting a web site. My IIS server is an old Win2000 Advanced but it should work the same.....right? :-) Here is an article that may have some relevance: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;251361#kb4 Here is something posted to a web site stating that the 127.0.0.1 not found issue was resolved on his XP by using the following: Try these steps to run the asp pages To Run MSDTC, go to command Prompt and run 1. MSDTC -resetlog Go to command Prompt and run (it is case sensitive) 2. cd %windir%\system32\inetsrv 3. rundll32 wamreg.dll, CreateIISPackage 4. regsvr32 asptxn.dll 5. IISRESET Run these steps and after that go to Services and restart the IIS. If still doesn't work, after completing the above steps re-install the IIS.

Board of Directors has recently approved lowering the size limits of messages on the list to 20k. This is an attempt to encourage the snipping of emails during replies and to reduce the size of the archives in the future. Our archives are getting quite large, hence the cost of storing them is going up. It is unlikely that we will see many messages exceed 20k in size if they are properly snipped. HOWEVER our list moderators will let messages of any size through as long as the following criteria is met: 1. it has been properly snipped 2. it does not contain attachments 3. it was sent using plain text formatting 4. it contains valuable technical information If any of these criteria is not met, the post will be rejected. Please bear in mind that, although it would not be typical of our elite corp. of moderators, it may take moderators up to 24 hours to get to your post to allow it through. We initially experimented with the 20k limit on the Off Topic OT list where posts tend to be long, for the most part because of poor snipping. One other major cause of messages being held due to exceeding the size limit was messages being sent in html or rich text formats. (The size is determined before the html formatting is stripped and presently there is nothing we can do about this.) In the weeks since we reduced the size limit on the OT (where messages are often long winded (to say the least :o)) the number of messages rejected due to exceeding the size limits has dropped to near zero. Because of this we do not foresee a problem with the technical lists but please let us know if you are experiencing any problems because of this limit. We sincerely hope this does not cause any complications in your utilization of this valuable asset. Regards, John Bartow, President Database Advisors, Inc.

I had a bunch of different things installed, including VS 2001, the various 2005 betas and VS 2003, pretty much all at the same time. I uninstalled everything including IIS, purchased Registry Mechanic to clean up the registry, reinstalled IIS and then VS 2003. I am now able to serve a basic web page IF I place my old web site's Index.HTML etc. I see the basics of the old ColbyConsulting.com. So IIS appears to run. What I am getting ATM is a server error 500 when I try to build a new project. From everything I am reading is a general "it doesn't fit in any of my other errors" error. I have spent probably the last 8 hours messing around, then uninstalling, then re-installing, and still no closer to success. My machine boots noticeably faster though. ;-) So, can anyone help me get VS 2003 building and running an ASP.Net web project? John W.

The first thing to understand is that, at heart, I am an database analyst / programmer, operating in the ACCESS realm, not a network admin, not a web site developer, not a SQL Server admin etc. Therefore... My development machine is my laptop There has always been ONE user (that I use anyway) jwcolby Jwcolby is an admin I understand that there is an user named Admin (that I do not use) that is also an admin. I know NOTHING about IIS other than that I installed it from Add/Delete programs / Windows I have IIS installed on my machine, and it will serve a page if I navigate to http://localhost/ though it wouldn't even do that with just the default install. I had to place a default.html in the wwwroot to even get it to do that. I know next to nothing about SQL Server. It is installed and running, but I know nothing about users and security I know nothing about Windows Security (it is not my job and I haven't used it). I do that Windows has user groups (and I can make one) and users (and I can make one) and that users can belong to groups (and I can assign them to groups). I do NOT know how to assign users "rights" to a given directory on the disk. It seems that you would just be able to right click on a directory and get at the rights / users / groups stuff but I am not seeing how to do that. So.... To sum up and quote Sergeant Schultz... "I know naaaaaathing" Now.... I have VS 2003 installed. I have written a fair amount of stuff (several months playing around on small projects) in VB.Net, including things like getting my SysVars working, able to read in from a form, saved into SysVar classes, and written out to an XML file, loaded back in from the XML file etc. I am not an expert by any means. I have a DotNetNuke web page at www.colbyconsulting.com which is way cool, I love it, and I want to start developing some simple modules for it. In order to develop modules for DotNetNuke, I have to have DotNetNuke running on my machine. It is open source, you can download it and install it on your machine. I have downloaded it, but the install is not happening, probably because of all the things I do NOT know (mentioned above). But above all, it appears to be an issue of IIS playing nicely with ASP.Net, or perhaps NOT playing nicely would be more correct. So, given what I DON'T know, advice like: >I have always setup the website location, all the site properties and the 'ForwardLookupZone', in IIS, before the ASP.Net project was started. The process may be automated now but when the site is setup manually there has never had any problems. Just isn't very useful. I appreciate the effort but that statement might as well be classical Greek (which I also don't know anything about BTW). I THINK I need to get my ASPNET user some privileges to do things on my computer, OTOH I have already made it an administrator which doesn't help. Why it wasn't set up with the needed privileges is a mystery to me, it seems like if it should have the privileges, then it would be installed with them but that is a discussion for another day. Today I need to accept the sad fact that everyone involved in using this stuff expects everyone else involved in using this stuff to know stuff that I don't know. "I just want to turn on the faucet and have water come out". So if anyone can help me get ASP.NET playing with IIS, I appreciate your assistance, but it needs to be "step-by-step". Assume that "I know Naaaawthing". Thanks, John W.

The way that I have solved some problems is to high-light the directory where the web site will reside, right-mouse click the properties, select the security tab and make sure the user 'everyone' has required access to the folder. The rights should be the same as any 'anonymous' user except 'everyone' can also write to that directory. (You must be logged on as Administrator not as just a user with administrator rights.) I can almost bet that VS defaults to user 'everyone' when posting a web site. My IIS server is an old Win2000 Advanced but it should work the same.....right? :-) Here is an article that may have some relevance: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;251361#kb4 Here is something posted to a web site stating that the 127.0.0.1 not found issue was resolved on his XP by using the following: Try these steps to run the asp pages To Run MSDTC, go to command Prompt and run 1. MSDTC -resetlog Go to command Prompt and run (it is case sensitive) 2. cd %windir%\system32\inetsrv 3. rundll32 wamreg.dll, CreateIISPackage 4. regsvr32 asptxn.dll 5. IISRESET Run these steps and after that go to Services and restart the IIS. If still doesn't work, after completing the above steps re-install the IIS.

Board of Directors has recently approved lowering the size limits of messages on the list to 20k. This is an attempt to encourage the snipping of emails during replies and to reduce the size of the archives in the future. Our archives are getting quite large, hence the cost of storing them is going up. It is unlikely that we will see many messages exceed 20k in size if they are properly snipped. HOWEVER our list moderators will let messages of any size through as long as the following criteria is met: 1. it has been properly snipped 2. it does not contain attachments 3. it was sent using plain text formatting 4. it contains valuable technical information If any of these criteria is not met, the post will be rejected. Please bear in mind that, although it would not be typical of our elite corp. of moderators, it may take moderators up to 24 hours to get to your post to allow it through. We initially experimented with the 20k limit on the Off Topic OT list where posts tend to be long, for the most part because of poor snipping. One other major cause of messages being held due to exceeding the size limit was messages being sent in html or rich text formats. (The size is determined before the html formatting is stripped and presently there is nothing we can do about this.) In the weeks since we reduced the size limit on the OT (where messages are often long winded (to say the least :o)) the number of messages rejected due to exceeding the size limits has dropped to near zero. Because of this we do not foresee a problem with the technical lists but please let us know if you are experiencing any problems because of this limit. We sincerely hope this does not cause any complications in your utilization of this valuable asset. Regards, John Bartow, President Database Advisors, Inc.

I had a bunch of different things installed, including VS 2001, the various 2005 betas and VS 2003, pretty much all at the same time. I uninstalled everything including IIS, purchased Registry Mechanic to clean up the registry, reinstalled IIS and then VS 2003. I am now able to serve a basic web page IF I place my old web site's Index.HTML etc. I see the basics of the old ColbyConsulting.com. So IIS appears to run. What I am getting ATM is a server error 500 when I try to build a new project. From everything I am reading is a general "it doesn't fit in any of my other errors" error. I have spent probably the last 8 hours messing around, then uninstalling, then re-installing, and still no closer to success. My machine boots noticeably faster though. ;-) So, can anyone help me get VS 2003 building and running an ASP.Net web project? John W.

The first thing to understand is that, at heart, I am an database analyst / programmer, operating in the ACCESS realm, not a network admin, not a web site developer, not a SQL Server admin etc. Therefore... My development machine is my laptop There has always been ONE user (that I use anyway) jwcolby Jwcolby is an admin I understand that there is an user named Admin (that I do not use) that is also an admin. I know NOTHING about IIS other than that I installed it from Add/Delete programs / Windows I have IIS installed on my machine, and it will serve a page if I navigate to http://localhost/ though it wouldn't even do that with just the default install. I had to place a default.html in the wwwroot to even get it to do that. I know next to nothing about SQL Server. It is installed and running, but I know nothing about users and security I know nothing about Windows Security (it is not my job and I haven't used it). I do that Windows has user groups (and I can make one) and users (and I can make one) and that users can belong to groups (and I can assign them to groups). I do NOT know how to assign users "rights" to a given directory on the disk. It seems that you would just be able to right click on a directory and get at the rights / users / groups stuff but I am not seeing how to do that. So.... To sum up and quote Sergeant Schultz... "I know naaaaaathing" Now.... I have VS 2003 installed. I have written a fair amount of stuff (several months playing around on small projects) in VB.Net, including things like getting my SysVars working, able to read in from a form, saved into SysVar classes, and written out to an XML file, loaded back in from the XML file etc. I am not an expert by any means. I have a DotNetNuke web page at www.colbyconsulting.com which is way cool, I love it, and I want to start developing some simple modules for it. In order to develop modules for DotNetNuke, I have to have DotNetNuke running on my machine. It is open source, you can download it and install it on your machine. I have downloaded it, but the install is not happening, probably because of all the things I do NOT know (mentioned above). But above all, it appears to be an issue of IIS playing nicely with ASP.Net, or perhaps NOT playing nicely would be more correct. So, given what I DON'T know, advice like: >I have always setup the website location, all the site properties and the 'ForwardLookupZone', in IIS, before the ASP.Net project was started. The process may be automated now but when the site is setup manually there has never had any problems. Just isn't very useful. I appreciate the effort but that statement might as well be classical Greek (which I also don't know anything about BTW). I THINK I need to get my ASPNET user some privileges to do things on my computer, OTOH I have already made it an administrator which doesn't help. Why it wasn't set up with the needed privileges is a mystery to me, it seems like if it should have the privileges, then it would be installed with them but that is a discussion for another day. Today I need to accept the sad fact that everyone involved in using this stuff expects everyone else involved in using this stuff to know stuff that I don't know. "I just want to turn on the faucet and have water come out". So if anyone can help me get ASP.NET playing with IIS, I appreciate your assistance, but it needs to be "step-by-step". Assume that "I know Naaaawthing". Thanks, John W.

The way that I have solved some problems is to high-light the directory where the web site will reside, right-mouse click the properties, select the security tab and make sure the user 'everyone' has required access to the folder.

Board of Directors has recently approved lowering the size limits of messages on the list to 20k. This is an attempt to encourage the snipping of emails during replies and to reduce the size of the archives in the future. Our archives are getting quite large, hence the cost of storing them is going up. It is unlikely that we will see many messages exceed 20k in size if they are properly snipped. HOWEVER our list moderators will let messages of any size through as long as the following criteria is met: 1. it has been properly snipped 2. it does not contain attachments 3. it was sent using plain text formatting 4. it contains valuable technical information If any of these criteria is not met, the post will be rejected. Please bear in mind that, although it would not be typical of our elite corp. of moderators, it may take moderators up to 24 hours to get to your post to allow it through. We initially experimented with the 20k limit on the Off Topic OT list where posts tend to be long, for the most part because of poor snipping. One other major cause of messages being held due to exceeding the size limit was messages being sent in html or rich text formats. (The size is determined before the html formatting is stripped and presently there is nothing we can do about this.) In the weeks since we reduced the size limit on the OT (where messages are often long winded (to say the least :o)) the number of messages rejected due to exceeding the size limits has dropped to near zero. Because of this we do not foresee a problem with the technical lists but please let us know if you are experiencing any problems because of this limit. We sincerely hope this does not cause any complications in your utilization of this valuable asset. Regards, John Bartow, President Database Advisors, Inc.

I had a bunch of different things installed, including VS 2001, the various 2005 betas and VS 2003, pretty much all at the same time. I uninstalled everything including IIS, purchased Registry Mechanic to clean up the registry, reinstalled IIS and then VS 2003. I am now able to serve a basic web page IF I place my old web site's Index.HTML etc. I see the basics of the old ColbyConsulting.com. So IIS appears to run. What I am getting ATM is a server error 500 when I try to build a new project. From everything I am reading is a general "it doesn't fit in any of my other errors" error. I have spent probably the last 8 hours messing around, then uninstalling, then re-installing, and still no closer to success. My machine boots noticeably faster though. ;-) So, can anyone help me get VS 2003 building and running an ASP.Net web project? John W.

The first thing to understand is that, at heart, I am an database analyst / programmer, operating in the ACCESS realm, not a network admin, not a web site developer, not a SQL Server admin etc. Therefore... My development machine is my laptop There has always been ONE user (that I use anyway) jwcolby Jwcolby is an admin I understand that there is an user named Admin (that I do not use) that is also an admin. I know NOTHING about IIS other than that I installed it from Add/Delete programs / Windows I have IIS installed on my machine, and it will serve a page if I navigate to http://localhost/ though it wouldn't even do that with just the default install. I had to place a default.html in the wwwroot to even get it to do that. I know next to nothing about SQL Server. It is installed and running, but I know nothing about users and security I know nothing about Windows Security (it is not my job and I haven't used it). I do that Windows has user groups (and I can make one) and users (and I can make one) and that users can belong to groups (and I can assign them to groups). I do NOT know how to assign users "rights" to a given directory on the disk. It seems that you would just be able to right click on a directory and get at the rights / users / groups stuff but I am not seeing how to do that. So.... To sum up and quote Sergeant Schultz... "I know naaaaaathing" Now.... I have VS 2003 installed. I have written a fair amount of stuff (several months playing around on small projects) in VB.Net, including things like getting my SysVars working, able to read in from a form, saved into SysVar classes, and written out to an XML file, loaded back in from the XML file etc. I am not an expert by any means. I have a DotNetNuke web page at www.colbyconsulting.com which is way cool, I love it, and I want to start developing some simple modules for it. In order to develop modules for DotNetNuke, I have to have DotNetNuke running on my machine. It is open source, you can download it and install it on your machine. I have downloaded it, but the install is not happening, probably because of all the things I do NOT know (mentioned above). But above all, it appears to be an issue of IIS playing nicely with ASP.Net, or perhaps NOT playing nicely would be more correct. So, given what I DON'T know, advice like: >I have always setup the website location, all the site properties and the 'ForwardLookupZone', in IIS, before the ASP.Net project was started. The process may be automated now but when the site is setup manually there has never had any problems. Just isn't very useful. I appreciate the effort but that statement might as well be classical Greek (which I also don't know anything about BTW). I THINK I need to get my ASPNET user some privileges to do things on my computer, OTOH I have already made it an administrator which doesn't help. Why it wasn't set up with the needed privileges is a mystery to me, it seems like if it should have the privileges, then it would be installed with them but that is a discussion for another day. Today I need to accept the sad fact that everyone involved in using this stuff expects everyone else involved in using this stuff to know stuff that I don't know. "I just want to turn on the faucet and have water come out". So if anyone can help me get ASP.NET playing with IIS, I appreciate your assistance, but it needs to be "step-by-step". Assume that "I know Naaaawthing". Thanks, John W.

The way that I have solved some problems is to high-light the directory where the web site will reside, right-mouse click the properties, select the security tab and make sure the user 'everyone' has required access to the folder. The rights should be the same as any 'anonymous' user except 'everyone' can also write to that directory. (You must be logged on as Administrator not as just a user with administrator rights.) I can almost bet that VS defaults to user 'everyone' when posting a web site. My IIS server is an old Win2000 Advanced but it should work the same.....right? :-) Here is an article that may have some relevance: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;251361#kb4 Here is something posted to a web site stating that the 127.0.0.1 not found issue was resolved on his XP by using the following: Try these steps to run the asp pages To Run MSDTC, go to command Prompt and run 1. MSDTC -resetlog Go to command Prompt and run (it is case sensitive) 2. cd %windir%\system32\inetsrv 3. rundll32 wamreg.dll, CreateIISPackage 4. regsvr32 asptxn.dll 5. IISRESET Run these steps and after that go to Services and restart the IIS. If still doesn't work, after completing the above steps re-install the IIS. Looks like the answer was a MS service call fix to me...

If I had to guess, I would say that the "user" that VS2003 is trying to use to create the project doesn't have permissions with IIS to muck around inside IIS's directories. John W.

The way that I have solved some problems is to high-light the directory where the web site will reside, right-mouse click the properties, select the security tab and make sure the user 'everyone' has required access to the folder. The rights should be the same as any 'anonymous' user except 'everyone' can also write to that directory. (You must be logged on as Administrator not as just a user with administrator rights.) I can almost bet that VS defaults to user 'everyone' when posting a web site. My IIS server is an old Win2000 Advanced but it should work the same.....right? :-) Here is an article that may have some relevance: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;251361#kb4 Here is something posted to a web site stating that the 127.0.0.1 not found issue was resolved on his XP by using the following: Try these steps to run the asp pages To Run MSDTC, go to command Prompt and run 1. MSDTC -resetlog Go to command Prompt and run (it is case sensitive) 2. cd %windir%\system32\inetsrv 3. rundll32 wamreg.dll, CreateIISPackage 4. regsvr32 asptxn.dll 5. IISRESET Run these steps and after that go to Services and restart the IIS. If still doesn't work, after completing the above steps re-install the IIS. Looks like the answer was a MS service call fix to me... HTH Jim PS Can you view the root of the 'wwwroot' directory using http://localhost and/or http://127.0.0.1 (maybe yes or no)?

Board of Directors has recently approved lowering the size limits of messages on the list to 20k. This is an attempt to encourage the snipping of emails during replies and to reduce the size of the archives in the future. Our archives are getting quite large, hence the cost of storing them is going up. It is unlikely that we will see many messages exceed 20k in size if they are properly snipped. HOWEVER our list moderators will let messages of any size through as long as the following criteria is met: 1. it has been properly snipped 2. it does not contain attachments 3. it was sent using plain text formatting 4. it contains valuable technical information If any of these criteria is not met, the post will be rejected. Please bear in mind that, although it would not be typical of our elite corp. of moderators, it may take moderators up to 24 hours to get to your post to allow it through. We initially experimented with the 20k limit on the Off Topic OT list where posts tend to be long, for the most part because of poor snipping. One other major cause of messages being held due to exceeding the size limit was messages being sent in html or rich text formats. (The size is determined before the html formatting is stripped and presently there is nothing we can do about this.) In the weeks since we reduced the size limit on the OT (where messages are often long winded (to say the least :o)) the number of messages rejected due to exceeding the size limits has dropped to near zero. Because of this we do not foresee a problem with the technical lists but please let us know if you are experiencing any problems because of this limit. We sincerely hope this does not cause any complications in your utilization of this valuable asset. Regards, John Bartow, President Database Advisors, Inc.
