Unable to get the project file from the Web Server

SteveS

Hello, I'm compiling an asp.net application and having troubles. I keep
getting the errors:
"Unable to open Web project" for the web web services
and "Unable to get the project file from the Web server" for the web
project.

I believe I'm getting this because I don't have IIS pointing to the
application. However, I'm doing this on purpose because this is a test
server and I don't want to touch IIS.

I'm not using VS.Net directly, but I believe I had the same problem using
devenv.exe. (I'm actually using MSBuild from www.gotdotnet.com which I
compiled for the 1.1 .Net Framework). I think the same issues would
apply.

Is there a technical reason why I need IIS pointing to the application? Is
there a way around this? This is very frustrating!

Thank you in advance!!!

An ASP.NET project has to be in an IIS application. If you have access to
another system for testing, try using that - even Win2K or XP pro will do.

Is it easy to change the URL where it's pointing. Currently it points to
http://localhost/MySite. Can I easily change the URL to be
http://localhost/MyCompileSite?? This way, I can compile it in
http://localhost/MyCompileSite, then deploy it to the other site after I
know it compiles correctly. Any suggestions?

The problem started when the Working Folder for a project was somehow set to the folder of another project.
