You can't select http as the location. VS uses the FrontPage Server
Extensions to communicate with an IIS web server when opening or publishing
a web through http. Because of the way IIS 7 has been re-designed, the
FrontPage Server Extensions are no longer compatible and do not work with
IIS 7. Thus you cannot use http to create,open, or publish to a web on IIS
7. What you'll need to do is create a file-based web project anywhere you
want on your system, then in IIS add a virtual directory (making sure
afterwards that it's marked as an application) that points to the new VS
project you just created. VS is probably giving a permissions error simply
because it doesn't know what else to do in this situation since IIS 7 was
not something it was designed to work against originally.

Hi all
I've finally figured out how to just get IIS 7 to display the welcome
page - had to use the clasic pool option.
Now I want to get my ASP.NET to run, no luck so far.
I'm unable to even create the app in VS2005 if I select HTTP as my
"location". I never seem to have rights and I'm the administrator!
Which settings do I have to edit to allow me to do this? Which icon do
I have to access/click? I know that I'll probably say in a week or so
that it's obvious but now I'm stumped!
I do have mutliple ASP.NET appliations that used to work under XP and
the previous version of IIS but nothing works under Vista and IIS7.
My setup: Vista Ultimate and VS2005 with new hardware.
Thanx
Fick
