application pool problem

[Guest]

I have a web service project that was fine untill I created a new application
pool and moved my service to the new pool. Now I can not even open the
project in VS. Error message says "file path c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\myproject
does not correspond to the url http://localhost/myproject. The two need to
map to the same server location. HTTP error 503 service not available."

Can somebody please explain what the problem is?

Thanks

You seemed to have broken the virtual directory mappings. Your webservice
should map to the the directory on your hard disk. it doesn't have anything
to do with application pools. Using internet manager to reset the path and
then make sure the application is configured as a virtual directory

Hi Glen,

When you created your web application, VS generated virtual directory and
mapping of physical path. Since you move project files to other location, the
mapping doesn’t work any more. You can manually create new virtual directory
and map physical path to your new pool location.
