404 Errors on all new project requests

Just installed VS2003 and tried a hello world app. Getting 404 error even
when I explictly specify the start page in the url.

In IIS Mgr, App has .aspx mapped to
C:\WINDOWS\Micr osoft.NET\Frame work\v1.1.4322\ aspnet_isapi.dl l.

Interestingly, an app that I installed BEFORE installing VS2003 works. I
compared its properties to new apps generated by VS2003 and only difference I
see is that the new apps have the "Local Path" box in the Directory tab
greyed out. The old app has an absolute pathname
(c:\inetput\www root\InstantFor um41).

Important info. I HAD VS2005 Beta2 installed. I uninstalled it before
installing VS2003. Wonder if I broke something.

Also, another symptom is that debugger won't start. Says I need to "verify
that ASP.NET is correctly installed" (it is and wp_aspnet.exe is running as I
speak) or that "ATL Server is correctly installed" (not sure how to test
that).

This is usually "file not found". Check the web serfer for the log to see th
file he hits and if it's really where you expect...

The file that it hits IS the one I expect. And the file DOES exist. Here is
a section out of the log. NOte that I'm running IIS 5.1:

19:42:27 127.0.0.1 GET /UP1/WebForm1.aspx 404

I'm baffled!

There was no way for you to know it, but this is a classic asp newsgroup.
While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to a newsgroup where the dotnet-savvy people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork.aspnet.

quicker response by posting to the newsgroup.

Thanks Bob. Now if I could only figure out this MSDN web interface to
newsgroups! :) (don't answer that).

I thought this is more of an IE issue but i've had no joy on that group perhaps somebody here will have a clue. If i click a link to a web page embedded in Excel (97 OR 2000) i get the standard error page displayed by IE (you know, the 'cannot find server or dns error' page). Turning off 'show friendly http error messages' alleviates this. (Unfortunately this is the Windows default setting!) Whats going on?!?!

My site uses the fairly standard approach of trapping errors in the Application_Error event and dealing with them there. However, we occasionally get errors that are generated by the Framework itself and are this not trappeable by our ASP.Net code. A good example is if someone requests a page just as the site DLL is being uploaded, an error such as "Cannot access file XXXXXX as it is being used by another process" is generated.

Hi, I've set up a custom error like this <customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="ErrorPage.aspx"> <error statusCode="404" redirect="error404.aspx" /> </customErrors> So requests for NoSuchPage.aspx are routed to error404.aspx. Good. But it seems that requests for any other file extension (*.htm) or requests without a filename (eg www.site.com/nosuchfolder) are routed to the default 404

I have a Web Service application using ASP.NET. If I set the application pool threads to recycle the worker processes after a small number of requests. I then use the Web Stress tool to send requests to the server and after a while I check if there were any errors. It seems that during the recycle the requests are failing. Is there anything I can do to be able to recycle the worker processes without having any downtime?
