ASP.NET Web Site Administration tool from Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition

I'm truly desperate on this one, I've searched as much as I can but I
think I'm just doing something fundamentaly wrong.

I open the ASP.NET Web Site Administration tool from within Visual Web
Developer 2005 Express Edition, on the main menu, click Web Site and
select ASP.NET Configuration.

My browser opens briefly then minimizes, right clicking the system
tray dev server icon gets me the admin tool but with the error
message: An error was encountered. Please return to the previous page
and try again.

Click the sys tray icons gets:

F:\backup e\ASP\WEB1\
/WEB1
1352
http://localhost:1352/WEB1 which happily gives me the web page
itself, from this I am assuming Webserver is working.

&

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\asp.
/asp.netwebadminfiles
2468
http://localhost:2468/asp.netwebadminfiles which tells me there's an
error (details appended below)

Can someone tell what I'm doing wrong.

I've even formatted my drive and reinstalled my XP Home and all the
Express applications, .NET 2.0 all updates and service packs installed
as each app was installed. I left windows firewall off: same issue, I
installed symantic, turned it off: same issue.

Does this function not work in Express?
Talk about falling at the first hurdle !

Can someone help me?

Sometimes I get a dialogue box:

Warning: the web page which you are about to visit may attempt to
request your personal information (such as passwords, credit card
numbers and social security numbers) for unauthorized use or may
otherwise attempt to harm your computer.

Malicious web sites can use this type of address in order to disguise
themselves. The destination may appear to be:

%22http

but the actual destination is:

%22http



then another:

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

thanks Michael

I'm afraid that didn't work.

Is it possible that there's a time out caused by the " > %22http"
warning?

This is on a "fresh" XP Home re-install, and the VWD installed
straight after (with SQL express - all TCP allowed etc). Do you know
if would normally work "out of the box"?

I can't remember exactly, but that tool always seemed quirky to me.

A couple of things.

XP Home doesn't have IIS. So maybe not using IIS is an issue. (??)

That tool only works on the development box. Aka, I think the issue may be
that your mdf file is not in a typical C:\xxxxxxxxxxx location.
Is F: a local harddrive or mapped drive?

The tool does not work remotely, one of the reasons I stopped using it. It
was easier for me to go to the msdn site, and get user/roles examples, and
put that code in my project.


I don't know exactly, but those are some hints.

Try a very "C:\xxxxxxxxxx" and see if you can get a basic sample working.

Thanks.

I have finally solved this. I'm a;most too embarrassed to explain.

My browser was forcing the dialogue "Warning: the web page which you
are about to visit may attempt to request your personal information
(such as passwords, credit card numbers and social security numbers)
for unauthorized use or may otherwise attempt to harm your computer."

I think this delayed the call to the localhost for long enough to make
the call fail. When I changed to browse using Microdoft Internet
Explorer, all was well.

And: For that option read this: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/11/18/430943.aspx

thanks for helping me.
