Think twice before you install "Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition Beta1" on your developemen

[bredal Jensen]

It will go ahead and configure IIS to use asp.net 2.0 for your existing
asp.net sites resulting in the fact that you can no longer debug your
asp.net v1.1.4... applications with visual studio.net 2003.

I have spent some time wondering why i could no longer debug my
existing apps. right after my instalation completed and at my big surprise,
IIS has "configured" them to use
asp.net 2.
When i manually corrected this, things started working again.

I wondwer how many other untold stories there are out there about this
issue.



Thanks

You can set the version for the roots that are still 1.1, using
aspnet_regiis:

A good idea always. Never install betaware on a production machine (machine
you cannot afford to take time to rebuild).

The problem here is that the new tool ships with its own "embeded" web
server so i do not
understand why it has to mess with IIS ?
