Hi Ray, I got this kind of behaviour in both cases. First time I could not even create a project. After some time playing with root directory locations and Server Extensions I managed to create the project. Don't remember how. Mystery.
Next day I was not able to open the project I created and I am not able to create a project again. -----Original Message----- From: Ray Heath [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, May 12, 2002 1:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [DOTNET] Unable to create a new Web Project Hi Igor - I'm a bit confused; you say that you get this message when you try to create a web project in VS.NET. Is it really when you try to create, or when you try to open a previously created web application? You would certainly get the message upon trying to open a previously created ASP.NET project if the location of the 'web' files had changed, a parent folder renamed, or they had been deleted. I'm working on 2000 Server, so the locations are a bit different on XP; but the behavior should be quite similar (assuming you are using the same login name each time you log onto your operating system). Typically (assuming default behavior) the IDE is going to put the project files in a folder such as: 'C:\Documents and Settings\YourLoginNameGoesHere\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\MyTestApp'. It would put the 'web application part' under the default website (the location for mine is: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot). Where does your 'http://localhost/' point to? Immediately after you try to create a project, have you looked at that directory for the application? You should be able to see it both with the file explorer and the computer manager.
