get_aspx_ver.aspx ???

[Fred Geurtsen]

Hi,

Anyone knows what get_aspx_ver.aspx does? I don't have this page in my
webapplication, but I get it in a error message.

Thx

I remember this from a while ago, vs.net hits this page to figure out which
version of ASP.Net IIS is running on. The page doesn't exist, the
information required is gathered from the error message.

Just to add to Karl's answer:

"When you try to open an ASP.NET Web Application project, the ASP.NET
process accesses a nonexistent file that is named Get_aspx_ver.aspx to
retrieve the ASP.NET version information. If the defaultRedirect attribute
is not set to an HTML file or to an ASP file, the request for the
Get_aspx_ver.aspx file returns the HTTP 404 error and the ASP.NET version
information. If the defaultRedirect attribute is set to an HTML file or to
an ASP file, the request for the Get_aspx_ver.aspx file does not return the
ASP.NET version information. Therefore, you receive the error that is
mentioned in the "Symptoms" section of this article."
