Hi John: I have had issues before and still do. 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: <quote> 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. </unquote> 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)? -----Original Message----- From: dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of John Colby Sent: Friday, October 14, 2005 4:35 PM To: dba-vb at databaseadvisors.com Subject: Re: [dba-VB] VS 2003 and IIS Am I to assume then that you (like myself) don't know how to give it such permissions?

I can find the dir from VS2003 "create new project" but get the same error trying to create the project in that dir. 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.

I uninstalled as much of it as I could, then cleaned the registry, compacted, re-installed IIS, then installed VS 2003. So THIS time, IIS was installed first. Default.asp is the top file in the list.

Asp.Net needs the account. Did you install VS before IIS? Also check in IIS... right click default web site, properties, documents, should have default.aspx in the list.

Subject: [dba-VB] VS 2003 and IIS Can anyone help me troubleshoot getting VS 2003 working with IIS. IIS is running on my machine. If I place a valid default.htm I can open a browser and type http://127.0.0.1/ in the address bar and it opens that default.htm. When I try and create a new ASP.Net application In VS, I get: The web server reported... 'http://localhost/webapplication1'. 'http/1.1 500 server error' The project is not created, i.e. no files show in the solution explorer. I need help on this, no clue what, why or how. Thanks, John W.
