Running ASP.NET 2.0 app on IIS on XP from VS.NET 2005 Help?

[bcox]

Hello VS 2005 World...

I am making my way through VS 2005 Beta 1 and I'm having a problem getting
ASP.NET project to start in IIS running on an XP development machine.

I build a sample project in VS 2005 and it runs fine through the debugger.
Then I try using the new Publish Web Site feature to publish the application
to IIS at C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\my_project.

It looks like everything gets published correctly to a virtual directory.
But when I go into IIS and configure the startup file to look for
Default.aspx then try and access the application in Exporer using this
address: http://localhost/my_project/default.aspx.

I get this message:

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then
click the Refresh button, or try again later.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Invalid at the top level of the document. Error processing resource
'http://localhost/OneToMany2/default.aspx'. Line 1, Po...

This is a marker file generated by the precompilation tool, and should not
be deleted!
^

Can anyone give me a clue as to what I'm doing wrong here? The virtual
directory looks right, I see the code there and I don't see anything unusual
in IIS.The application works fine through the debugger.

One note is that the machine I installed Yukon and VS 2005 already had .NET
Framework 1.1 installed. Does this have anything to do with it? I don't
think so because the new VS 2005 Web Configuration App runs fine...

Thanks

Confused and bewildered...

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 group where those dotnet-savvy people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

Thanks, my mistake... There are so many MS news groups it's hard to keep
them all straight... I'll try elsewhere....
