Visual Web Developer 2005 :: IIS 5.1
Last night; we installed Visual Web Developer 2005 Express on my brother's computer; it was working fine; but his IIS 5.1 (Windows XP Sp2) started giving problems. ASP (Classic) files were not working; ASP.NET v1.1 projects were not loading in Visual Studio and so forth. We are not yet sure that VWD caused it; but here is what we did
- Gave everyone read/execute permission to %SYSTEM32%\mfc42.dll
- Gave everyone read/execute permission to %SYSTEM32%\dllhost.exe
- Aspnet_regiss.exe –i of v.1.1
- Removed virtual folder; re-created it, changed protection level from medium to low
- IISRESET
Things started working fine onwards…
