Creating an ASP.NET application on XP Pro

[Randy]

I have installed Visual Studio 2003 on a machine with XP Pro as the OS. I am wanting to develop a ASP.NET project on this machine. When I try to try to create a web form I get the message that the automation server cannot create the object. I am not finding any documentation on what permissions I need to change to create this.

Any help would be apprecaited.

You need to install IIS. It's on your WindowsXP CD but not installed by
default.
Go into Control Panel, Add/Remove windows components.

Then you need to repair your mappings.
To do this, run the following command:
aspnet_regiis.exe -i

Here's further information:

I had IIS installed, but I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it. I have taken the step to correct any mapping issues and registered the dll as the help page pointed out. It is still not allowing me to create any webforms.

I am running version IIS version 5.1. I keep reading about using version 6.0, but am not certain if that is the problem or not.

Thanks for any help.

iis version 6 is only on server 2003

you also need the frontpage extensions installed. install all the server
components from the vs2003 cd
