Creating an ASP.Net Application Project in Visual Basic fails

Hi all,

I've scanned Google Newsgroups, but although similar problems were discussed
there seemed to be no solution for the following.

I am using Windows 2003 Server, Evaluation Edition (Build 3718) and a trial
version of vs.net 2003 enterprise edition, both on the same machine. all
specific instructions this couple needed for setting up vs.net had been
executed (e.g. installing a 2nd version of .net framework etc.). After a
couple of extra activities, VS.Net finally installed fine!

When trying to create a new VB ASP.Net Application project, the following
error msg comes up:

*****
Window Title: Web Access failed.

The default web access mode for this project is set to file share, but the
project folder at 'http://localhost/WebApplication1 ' cannot be opened with
'C:\Inetpub\www root\WebApplica tion1'. The error returned was:

Unable to create web-project 'WebApplication 1'. The filepath
'C:\Inetpub\www root\WebApplica tion1' does not correspond to the URL
'http://localhost/WebApplication1 '. The two need to map to the same server
location. HTTP error 404: Not found.

Do you want to.... (etc.)

*****

What I tried to do is maximize ASPNET's user access rights. Basically,
ASPNET is now granted Administrator rights. I restarted the machine - did
not help. I also allowed Directory Browsing and Execution of Scripts and
Executables to the root web - with no effect.

Who has a clue what the problem might be?

Have you tried changing the location to 127.0.0.1 instead
of localhost?

Try this when you create the project

This works for me

All is fine and the system creates a TLB file and everything. It all works great on my development...

Using Visual Studio 2005, I'm trying to create a simple unmanaged C++ class that will be called from a VB application. I've got the class working using basic functions, but I'd like to overload the "=" operator so the VB app can assign values directly to the class. When I use "operator=", VB tells me that I can't assign an integer to my class. Here's what I've got: #pragma once using namespace System;
