Hello again, I finally located the source of this problem. It is the UrlScan ISAPI filter. It returns the message "[07-27-2005 - 11:46:50] Client at 127.0.0.1: URL contains '.' in the path. Request will be rejected. Site Instance='1', Raw URL='/NPetshop.Web/get_aspx_ver.aspx' ". I had to change the allowDotInPath=0 to 1.
It is probably too late to change NPetshop, but I would recommend avoiding dots (.) in directory names that will be mapped to IIS since allowDotInPath defaults to false. David Morris >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/29/05 5:10 PM >>> Hello, I ran into some problems running NPetshop. I get an error that when a Windows ASP project has a "." in the name like "NPetshop.Web". This doesn't seem to be a problem on a W2000 system but is a problem on an XP system. The actual error reads: "Unable to create Web project 'NPetshop.Web'. The file path 'c:\netpub\wwwroot\NPetshop.Web' does not correspond to the URL 'http://localhost/NPetshop.Web'. The two need to map to the same server location. HTTP Error 4094: Object Not Found." I have tried various ways of creating the Virtual Directory. I tried creating it directly in IIS and also from Visual Studio. I can create the Virtual Directory in IIS but it always complains when I start Visual Studio that it cannot be found. I agree that the IIS documentation implies that any valid directory name should work but a "." seems to cause problems. I renamed the Web project and tried replacing NPetshop.Web with NPetshop but I must have missed something since it can't locate the dao.config at this point. Any ideas? Thanks, David Morris
