Visual Studio Web Server Error With New Project

On a new install of Visual Studio, it worked most of the day, then I did
something (deleted a web folder??? or files) and now when I try to create a
new project (New Project->ASP.NET Web application I get an error "The Web
server reported the following error when attempting to create or open the
project at the URL http://localhost/WebApplication1 Internal Server Error
HTTP 1.1 500 Internal Server Error".

I deleted the folder WebApplication1 and apparently it doesn't recognize my
localhost server???? I tried using repairing VS 2003 it kranked for about a
half hour and the same thing happens.

Does anyone know what would cause this error or how to fix it? It seems to
not find the web server (IIS 5.0 on Win2K).

Thanks.

This could be caused by a number of things. There is a discussion here that
presents several solutions:

Hello, I seem to be encountering a problem that many others have encountered before me. Unfortunately, even the mighty Google seems reluctant to yield any solutions. We are developing some webservices. We have multiple developers who have Visual Studio 2003 and SourceSafe 6.0d. None of our developers have IIS installed on their machines. We have a central test server that we want to work off which runs IIS and .NET 1.1. All of our...

I recently upgraded to from Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Visual Studio .NET 2005. In Visual Studio .NET 2003 when I would select 'Build' it would add a *.dll with the name of the Project to a /bin/ folder in the same directory as the source code. However, in Visual Studio .NET 2005 when I selected 'Publish Web Site' and selected a target location to place it in, it placed the following files in it: All *.aspx files All *.html files

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
