ASP.NET Development Server as standalone ?

Sometimes, I need to transfer my development site .aspx files to another
machine in another city where I only have notepad and .NET 3.5. How can I use
the ASP.NET Development Web Server outside Visual Studio, to test my site on
the other PC?

In your PC, look in : "Drive:\Windows \Microsoft.NET\ Framework\v2.0. 50727"
for WebDev.WebServe r.exe ...and copy it to the other machine.

There's also a WebDev.WebServe r.exe.manifest file in that directory.
I'm not sure whether it's an essential file.

The command-line syntax for launching the Dev Server is :
WebDeb.WebServe r /port:<port number/path:<physical path[/vpath:<virtual path>]

I've never been able to get the [/vpath:<virtual path>] parameter to work,
so you could try to do without it ( running the app in the root space ).

For example, you could launch the webserver using the following syntax:

start /B webdev.webserve r.exe /port:80 /path:"c:\direct orypathtoyourwe bfiles"

Or...you could install VWD 2008, and run/test/modify the project in it.

VWD 2008 installs the ASP.NET Development Web Server
....and you will have the plus of being able to edit the files.

We have an Access app (quite big) at www.orbisoft.com/download. We have had requests by potential users to have it converted to an SQL version for them since there corporate policy excludes them from buying mdb backends. Here's the (million dollar?) questions :) How long and how difficult a process would it be? Which SQL platform would we be best to develop it on?

Hello. I'm developing and testing a web application using VS.NET 2003, VB, .NET Framework 1.1.4322, ASP.NET 1.1.4322 and IIS5.1 on a WIN XP Pro, SP2 computer. I'm using a web form.

Hey, Can someone please clarify, confirm, or set me straight on my understanding of a standalone="yes" attribute in the xml version element? I assume it means that the xml document containing it is standalone, and does not refer to any external document to define types. In other words, it doesn't use an external dtd to validate any types - everything used would be defined within the doc itself. In other words, you would never see an xml...
