"ASP.NET 1.1 not installed ... " error

[John Grandy]

Open a .sln containing a web-app and receive the "ASP.NET 1.1 not installed
.... " error .....

I've never know the root cause of this error. I've always dealt with it by
closing the web-app , deleting the contents of the

\{web-app}\bin\

directory and re-opening the web-app.

Root causes can be many. When you open a project in VS.NET, a GET request
is made for a non-existant file called get_aspx_ver.aspx. The response
should contain a header with the version of ASP.NET that's running. If it
doesn't get back 1.1.4322, it assumes you aren't running 1.1. That means
that if an error occurs during that request, you will see this message.

You can get a Netmon trace, check IIS logs, make a request for an ASP.NET
page and see what happens, etc. to try and get to the REAL root cause.

Hi Jim, and thanks for the response.

Where would I find the IIS logs ?

And how would I go about a NETMON trace ?

 

[Mr Newbie]

The reason is most likely because you installed IIS AFTER you installed
Visual Stuio 2003 or something similar. There is a way to get around this
with any luck. Make sure IIS is installed first.

Run the following command from the framework directory

Directory of
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

This should fix it.

Regards

Hi, and thanks for the response.

This I have tried. Re-installing ASP.NET does not solve my problem.

IIS logs are usually in c:\windows\system32\logfiles.

Regarding a Netmon, you can use either Netmon if you have it or Ethereal. I
have a tutorial on my site on Ethereal on my Web site:

Ignore the fact that it deals with FrontPage. You just want to know how to
capture packets and analyze the result.

You are being redirected (see the 302) when this is served. Are you
redirecting in global.asax? What about Forms authentication?

This log does not span any actual running of my web-app (either in debug or
runtime modes). It only spans opening the .sln in VS03.

I just found out that there is a commercial control (RichTextBox.dll) in the
web project.

Perhaps this explains the behavior ... ?

debug or runtime modes). It only spans opening the .sln in VS03.

That doesn't matter. Because VS.NET is making a request against the app,
code in global.asax will run and Forms Auth (if enabled) will be in effect.

What is the location header from the 302?
