IssueTracker (VB) Starter Kit

[David Pendleton]

Hello all.

I've installed the IssueTracker starter kit on my IIS machine, and I am able
to use the application from there.

I've copied the source to my workstation, which is not running IIS, or SQL
Server (other machines are doing that), and when I attempt to open the
project, I receive the error:

Visual Studio .NET cannot create or open the application because no Web
server was
detected at this URL: 'http://Localhost:/IssueTracker/'. Make sure the Web
server is
installed and running.

This is the *exact* error string. No typos.

I have grep'ped every file for 'Localhost' and replaced, but to no avail.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I'm no expert.

But how do you expect to run a web app on a machine with no web server
?(specifically one that interpret aspx files).

I mean, if you change/edit a file on machineB (no IIS) how do you think
machineA(with IIS) can detect this?

Can't you run IIS on your dev machine too? Then when you're happy with your
changes you can install/update the files on the prod machine.

Or have I got hold of the wrong end of the stick. Or indeed the wrong stick
entirely?

The thing is that the IDE tries to make sure that you can edit and run the
project. When it can't find a suitable web server it complains. You could
always open using any text editor. But I suspect you want to edit on one
machine and run on another, and I don't know of a way to do this.
