ASP.NET using Visual Studio.NET

[Mark Sandfox]

How do i get my ASP.NET Web Application to work on my MS Server 2003 on the
internet? Step by step please.

I have created and built a simple calendar app that works locally, but not
when i publish it to the website. All files are in the website's SubWeb,
including the Bin folder with the dll.

I know i am missing something simple but i cannot find any documentation
telling me to do anything mroe that i have not already done.

Thanks in advance for your help.

First, did you enable ASP.NET 2.0 on the 2003 server ?


Open the IIS Manager, scroll down on the left to the "Web Service Extensions" folder,
then highlight the ASP.NET version or versions that you want to enable on the
right-hand panel and click the "Allow" button.

That will allow the execution of ASP.NET pages.

Second, did you create a virtual directory for your "SubWeb" ?

First part is yes. All our websites run ASP.NET (longhand code) without
issue including this one. But this Web App created with Visual Studio won't
work.

Second point. Arent the virtual paramaters setup upon creation of the Sub
Web?

Which version of VS are you using ?

re:

Aren't the virtual parameters setup upon creation of the Sub Web?

That may depend on the VS version.

VS 2003 created virtual webs for every project created.
VS 2005 can use a file-based project and not use a virtual web at all.

re:

That's your problem right there.

Windows 2003 Server shipped with the .Net Framework 1.1 out-of-the-box,
and doesn't support the .Net Framework 1.0, so websites created with VS 2002 won't run.

You can run the .Net Framework 1.0/VS 2002 on Windows 2000 or XP, but not on 2003 Server.
