404 Errors on all new project requests

Just installed VS2003 and tried a hello world app. Getting 404 error even
when I explictly specify the start page in the url.

In IIS Mgr, App has .aspx mapped to
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_isapi.dll.

Interestingly, an app that I installed BEFORE installing VS2003 works. I
compared its properties to new apps generated by VS2003 and only difference I
see is that the new apps have the "Local Path" box in the Directory tab
greyed out. The old app has an absolute pathname
(c:\inetput\wwwroot\InstantForum41).

Important info. I HAD VS2005 Beta2 installed. I uninstalled it before
installing VS2003. Wonder if I broke something.

Also, another symptom is that debugger won't start. Says I need to "verify
that ASP.NET is correctly installed" (it is and wp_aspnet.exe is running as I
speak) or that "ATL Server is correctly installed" (not sure how to test
that).

This is usually "file not found". Check the web serfer for the log to see th
file he hits and if it's really where you expect...

The file that it hits IS the one I expect. And the file DOES exist. Here is
a section out of the log. NOte that I'm running IIS 5.1:

19:42:27 127.0.0.1 GET /UP1/WebForm1.aspx 404

I'm baffled!

There was no way for you to know it, but this is a classic asp newsgroup.
While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to a newsgroup where the dotnet-savvy people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

HTH,

Thanks Bob. Now if I could only figure out this MSDN web interface to
newsgroups! :) (don't answer that).
