New ASP project

[Mark Goldin]

How do I create a new project in any location on my hard drive?
I dont like to have all my projects on C drive.

Thanks

You can put them anywhere you want, but under VS you need to put them under
an IIS dir. Since IIS is almost always installed on C (Which is the most
common system drive), thats where it puts them by default.

Have no clue what you are talking about.
What is that: Under VS, under IIS?

when vs.net creates a web project. it creates a virtual directory under IIS
root. (default C:\Inetpub\wwwroot)
if you dont want C: then make sure you IIS is not in C:
one way would be to do a clean install and chose say D: as your installation
partition. in that case you will have C to yourself and can let VS to its
thing in D:

VS = Visual Studio.

IIS = Internet Information Server - the webserver.

To make things simple:
There is no way to create a new project anywhere else but C.
Is that a true statement?

You can try to move the project after you create it, but you'll need to make
sure IIS settings map to it as well.

Hi Mark,
By default VS.NET creates the project under c:\inetpub\wwwroot(The
drive letter is based on where IIS is installed).
If it is a web application a virual directory is created by VS.NET under
this directory with the project name given by you.

If you want to create that project somewhere else follow this procedure :

Create a directory first where you want to create the
project.For eg: call it MyProject under D:
* Then got to IIS and create a virtual directory with the name you want to
give the project.Eg : salesorder and choose the directory as
D:\MyProject.

* Then go to VS.NET and create a new web application,under the location
part give eg: http://localhost/salesorder (the name of the virtual
directory you created) and the project will be created under D:\MyProject.

Hope this answer your question.

Marshal Antony
