LAST TECHNICAL REVIEW: 21-MAY-2004
SOLUTION: We have had several people with
this problem on the #asp.net channel on DALnet. There are
many articles on the internet regarding this problem. Just
enter the entire problem text into google and you will
find an abundance of solutions for this problem.
While there are several things that can cause
this error, the most usual cause is that you did not run
aspnet_regiis.exe -i, after you installed vs.net. This
is simple to correct, but you must know which version of
asp.net you installed.
- Click "Start", and then click "Run".
- In the "Open" text box, type "cmd" (without
the quotation marks), and
then press ENTER.
- For version 1.0, at the command prompt, type the following,
and then press ENTER:
%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\aspnet_regiis.exe
-i
For version 1.1, at the command prompt type the following,
and then press ENTER:
%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_regiis.exe
-i
The above may work,
and should be tried first. But, it may not be the source
of your problem. Many people that experience this problem
try using aspnet_regiis.exe and find it does not fix the
problem. That is because, and this is very important, you
must install
everything in the correct order. The correct installation
order is to install IIS first. Get it running. And VERIFY
that it is serving web pages by browsing to http://localhost.
Once IIS is functional, install .Net Framework. Preferably
version 1.1, but you may install both 1.0 and 1.1. Then,
run aspnet_regiis.exe as described above, and then install
VS.NET.
