Running a service from VS

[Russ]

Hi. I just got a new computer. On the old computer everything was set
up and working. I installed VS.Net 2003 and ported my application.
The web service compiles ok. This project is built on the local
computer. But when I try to test the web service by executing it,
instead of bringing the service up in IE, it brings up a file open
dialog. If I say open, it opens the asmx source page in a VS window.

I have carefully compared the setup between the two computers (the old
computer is still online until I get everything working), and can not
find any different settings. I have run dotnetfix after installing VS
and IIS, and when I run IIS, it shows that the default web site is up
and running. However there is where there is a difference between the
old system. In the old system there was a directory in the Default
Web Site folder called "aspnet_client". In the new system that folder
is absent. I copied it in from the old system, but that did not help.

What do I need to do? I spent quite a while searching help but did
not find a clue.

Thanks, Russ

Never mind, I figured it out. I forgot about aspnet_regiis -i. Sure
wish they would tell use about that in the .net2003 install
instructions.

Thanks anyway, Russ
