I am trying to setup a 1.1 .NET app on a windows 7 machince with IIS7.
I have installed VS2003. A caveman lent me his disks...
I try to open the .sln file for the 1.1 Net App (let's call it MyOldApp) and get this VS 2003 error:
"Visual Studio .NET cannot create or open the application because no Web server was detected at this URL: 'http:/localhost/MyOldAPP'/ Make sure the Web server is installed and running."
So I open up the IIS7 Manager and try to configure the MyOldApp folder as a new site with the Add New Site wizard.
I get this IIS7 Authorization error after I press the "Test Settings" btn while configuring the MyOldApp folder with the Add New Site wizard:
The message: The server is configured to use pass-through authentication with a built-in account to access the specified physical path. However, IIS Manager cannot verify whether the built-in account has access. Make sure that the application pool identity has Read access to the physical path. If this server is joined to a domain, and the application pool identity is NetworkService or LocalSystem, verify that <domain>\<computer_name>$ has Read access to the physical path. Then test these settings again.
My machine account has full access to the physical path of the MyOldApp folder, so I do not understand why I am getting this error. This error seems to prevent me from opening the old app in VS2003.
