IMPOSSIBLE QUESTION

Guest

Hi folks,
I really wonder who will solve this proble.Because I have searched many web
sites (including MSDN.MICROSOFT.COM) and have found NO answer.

When I try to open a new ASP.NET project an error occurs like this:
http/1.1 500 server error

I have tried all things that microsoft suggested!!!
aspnet_regiis.exe -i
Uninstall IIS and reinstall progress
Uninstall framework 1.1 and reinstall progress
Remove ASP.NET user account and recreate it.
NOW I HAVE REMOVED ALL THINGS AND WAITING.WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Thanks for your attention

Have you checked the server logs to see if there is a detailed error in
there? This error could very well have nothing to do with ASP.Net at all.
Normally it refers to an internal server error in IIS. Sometimes
re-installing IIS doesn't do it. It could very well be a permissions error
that is causing a problem when trying to create a new project, which
requires VS.Net contacting the FP Server Extensions in IIS and creating a
new FrontPage web.

What you can do is try open the IIS MMC and right-click on the virtual
server and select New | Virtual Directory, name the direvctory what you
want, then point the virtual directory a location for this directory on your
hard drive. Then, use the New | Server Extensions Web and name it the same
name as the virtual directory. Now, right-click onthe virtual server and
select All Tasks | Check Server Extensions. This will attempt to correct any
errant permissions that may exist. Repeat the same check extensions
procedure on the new subweb you have created. You can then try creating a
new ASP.Net web project at the virtual directory you just created.

Hope this helps,

Hi Mark,
thanks for your replying.
First of all I think my IIS is not working.Because when I write
http://localhost
then an error page is displaying.
I have tried all your suggestions and now another error message occured:
"Visual Studio detected that the specified web server is not running on
ASP.NET version 1.1.You will be unable to run ASP.NET web applications or
services"

Very very important and interesting thing is I just worked YESTERDAY with
this computer.

Two questions:

#1 Have you just installed SP1 for DotNetFramework?

#2 Had you changed your ASPNET users's password in the machine.config file
on your workstation?

If your machine.config file has a hardcoded password where it by default
would say AutoGenerate then this may be your problem. <processModel ...
userName="machine" password="AutoGenerate" />

I have not confirmed this yet, but I think installing SP1 re-autogenerates
the ASPNET users' password. So, you will need to go reset it back to
whatever you manually changed it to before to match your machine.config
(under processModel).

This is just my theory. I will find out for sure on Tuesday.

Greg
