Error when creating Web Service

Opa
When creating a new web service, I get the following error:

Visual Studio .net cannot create or open the application. Web site
'http://localhost/WDWS' not started.

The World Wide Web Publish service is started prior to attempting to create
a new web service with vs.net. After I get this error, the service stops.

Here are my steps:

1) I created a virtual directory call WDWS from the Default Web Site root in
the Internet Information Services. (This alias points to a physical directory
with the same name)

2) From VS.NET I choose File -> New -> Project and then select ASP.NET Web
Service

3) I modify the location property to http://localhost/WDWS
(At this point, my default site is up and running.)

4) I click OK.

I get the error and the WWW Publishing service is stopped.

Any ideas of what is happening?

I check the event logs and nothing shows

Thanks a lot.

Opa

Hi Opa,
What does IE return when you open the web service using it?
Are you sure that there is *nothing* in the event logs (Application, Security, System)

What do you mean, I can't create the web service at all.
The wizard in .net give the error that I described.

Hi Opa,

I did not understand that the wizard can not complete at all, sorry.
Can you create other web projects at all? If you create http://localhost/WDWS1 will be ok? Are you a member of VS Developers group?

No, I can't create any web service project.
The wizard always stops the WWW Publishing (IIS) service, then it complains
that the website is not running.

Does anyone know what is going on?
What is the VS Developers group

Has anyone had this problem before. I've been stuck for two days.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Can you create a web project (NOT a service)?

What if you don't change location property, but leave the default?

Hi,

I also tried creating a regular web project with the default name and the
same thing happens. The IIS (WWW Publishing ) service is stopped by the
wizard.
It was running before I tried to create a new web project. This is really
bizarre.
Are there log files generated somewhere, where I can see what is going on.

Does anyone know if there are other services WWW Publishing depends on. I
disabled some services like FTP, SMTP and others. I'm not sure if this is
the problem.

Thanks

Hey there,

I assume that you shutdown your machine everynight... however if you don't
run "iisreset".

Another thought... I noticed that you are using your 'Default Website'.
Create another website on your machine that uses another port (that isn't
being used). Create another virtual directory (as you explained before)...
and try to create the web service project in VS .Net pointing to that virtual
directory.

Be sure that your AppPool ,that corresponds to your website, is setup
correctly ie. identity

Hope this helps....

I have a number of web sites on my 2003 server, each of the independent sites (i.e., not subdirectories of the localhost site). The way I have always set these up in the past is: 1. Create a directory "MySiteName" and a subdirectory "Site". 2. Share the "Site" subdirectory is "MySiteNameSite$", and give the local administrators group full access to the share. (The login I run under is a member of that group.)
