Running ASP.NET 2.0 app on IIS on XP from VS.NET 2005 B1

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\wwwr oot\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

Hi, Confused and bewildered.

The error

Invalid at the top level of the document.
Error processing resource
Is a well-known error when an XML document
has any high-ascii characters in it.

Did you, by any chance, write any high-ascii
( ascii 128-255 ) characters in web.config ?

Juan:

Well, no I didn't write any XML that I know of. VS 2005 might have... All
I did was publish a project that works in the debugger to local host from VS
2005 using the new Publish Web Site feature...

I suppose that VS 2005 might have screwed up something but it works fine in
the debugger so why would it be a problem in IIS?

I'll take a look though... Got any other ideas...

ASP.NET 2.0 + VS 2005 running side by side with 1.x and 2003

We have VS.NET 2003, .NET 1.1, and SQL Server 2000 installed locally on each of our developer workstations. We will need to keep these tools installed for maintaining old applications, but intend on developing new applications using ASP.NET 2.0, VS 2005, and SQL Server 2005. Are there any barriers in running these products side by side assuming we wait to install the live versions released in a couple weeks? Thanks in advance. Mark

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

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,...
