Can you run without debugging?

Try registering asp.net with iis:
aspnet_regiis.exe -i
in the VS command prompt.

just so everybody knows - i was able to fix this by enabling HTTP keep
alives (ehich is in IIS -> default web site -> properties -> web site
tab or something)

woo hoo!!!!

I am having the same problem. Started when I installed VS 2008. I've been
running 2003 and 2005 side by side with no troubles. Once I installed 2008 I
couldn't copy my 2003 project to the server. I'd get an error message which
read:

HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

Being unable to resolve this I uninstalled VS 2008 and attempted to restore
things to the way they were. Now I'm getting the same error as you, but it
doesn't matter whether I've set for debug or release, it won't build.

I've tried aspnet_regiis -i, iisreset, and deleting and re-creating my IIS
application name. None of this seems to help. Unless someone can answer
this question soon looks like I'll be re-installing everything...
