I cannot open or debug an ASP.NET 1.1 app

[Rod]

I had to re-install the Windows XP Professional OS last week on my work PC.
I've only got the .NET Framework 1.1 installed. Now I'm trying to get
everything back to working again. I'm run into problems trying to work on
any of our ASP.NET 1.1 applications. I am getting the following error
message whenever I attempt to open one of our ASP.NET apps within VS 2003:

"Microsoft Development Environment: The Web server reported the following
error when attempting to create or open the Web project located at the
following URL: 'http://localhost/App1'. 'HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error'."
I've run the aspnet_regiis app (for Framework version 1.1.4322) giving is
the "-i" parameter, so that doesn't need to be done. I've tried looking
this error up on MSDN's website and I found an article #811320. I've done
everything listed in the Workaround section of article #811320.
So, what do I do now?

Are you running IIS? Did VS create the web as an Application?

Ken,

Yes, I have IIS running on my Windows XP Pro box.

I created the application out of Visual SourceSafe, since it is an
application that we all work on in the development group I'm a part of.

9 times out of 10..its the lack of a virtual directory or application.
Go to IIS
Find the folder where you app is. (where the web.config file is the easiest
way to see this)
Right Click , and hit Properties.

Look for the button which allows you to Create Application. Its the first
tab.

A text box will get some text put inside of it.

I put the app name into the IIS properties (it wasn't there), but that
didn't work.

I finally got it to work by changing the username in the machine.config file
from "machine" to "SYSTEM" on the processModel tag. I know that isn't
ideal, but I've tried everything else I could find in MSDN to make it work,
and none of them made it work.
