Hi,
I have a rather unusual problem.
I have a very simple ASP.NET application, basically hello world type.
I created it with Visual Studio 2003 and am running it in debug mode.
It runs fine until I put the <appSettings> section in its web.config file
or machine.cfg.
After that the application starts, the web browser opens, it connects and
then shows waiting for page to open. At this point it just sits there
forever. I cannot close the page or terminate the application. i cannot
terminate devenv(VS2003). A worker task is running (aspnet_wp), it will not
terminate either. If I open another browser window, it hangs too (even
trying
to open msn.com).
The only wat to continue is to force power off my machine and restart.
IIS is running on the local machine and that is where I am running VS from.
I have put a break point on the initializecomponent call, it never gets
there.
if I delete the appSettings section, it works ok
ASPNET_WP.exe is running and cannot be killed, I noticed
another process dllhost.exe (not sure if anything to do with problem. If I
terminate dllhost.exe, within seconds it is back.
Thanks for any assistance,
