Cannot create ASP.NET Web Application

I have XP Pro and IIS is installed.
I am trying to create a new (and first) ASP.NET Web Application.

After choosing New project in IDE and naming it, I click OK and receive the
following message:

The Web server reported the following error when attempting to create or
open the Web project located at the following URL:
'http://localhost/WebHelpDesk'. 'The server returned an invalid or
unrecognized response'.

Does anyone know what this means or how I can remedy it?

thank you

This is a problem with the scriptmaps, you should consider using the
aspnet_regiis utility with one of the following params, I would recommend
the -i option. You can read about this utility on MSDN

-s = register asp.net with your webapps

-s <path> = this installs scriptmaps for this version at the specified
path, recursively. Existing scriptmaps of lower version are upgraded to this
version. E.g. aspnet_regiis.exe -s W3SVC/1/ROOT/SampleApp1

-i = install this version of ASP.NET and update scriptmaps at the IIS
metabase root and for all scriptmaps below the root. Existing scriptmaps of
lower version are upgraded to this version.

Hi Kevin,

Mostly it has to do with user rights in the directory c:\inetpub

This question is often asked in the newsgroup
Aspnet
<news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet>

Web interface:

<http://communities2.microsoft.com/co...s/?dg=microsof
t.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet>

when this is not the right answer I would ask it also there

I hope this helps a little bit?

I have tried the -i parameter with Regiis, but I am still seeing the
problem.

I figured out what it is. It is Norton Internet Security.
