Cannot view .aspx pages

1. For some reason, I uninstalled IIS 5.1 and .NET framework

2. Then I installed again IIS 5.1 and .NET framework in this order.

3. Then I added a website under inetpub\wwwroot

4. I created an application for it using inetmgr.exe

5. Now when I try to see a .aspx page from this site, it shows me .aspx
source code instead of the proper page

6. After this I ran the command aspnet_regiis -i

7. Now when I try to view the .aspx page, I get following error -
The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the
processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail
information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance.

The event viewer has this warning -

The server failed to load application '/LM/W3SVC'. The error was 'The
specified metadata was not found.

Hello,

Try searching on Google, I see this is a pretty common problem.

See
http://www.issociate.de/board/post/197136/The_server_failed_to_load_application_'/LM/W3SVC'.__The_error_was_'The_specified_metadata_was _not_fo.html
for example.

Best regards,
Andrei
