Developing Web Apps using VB.NET 2003

[Ben Kim \(Vertical Dimensions, Inc.\)]

Hello all,

I am trying to develop a web application using VB.NET 2003 on WinXP Pro (with latest patches) and .NET Framework (SDK) latest. I have IIS 5.1 up and running.

Here is the problem I have:
I type: http://localhost/ and get this error:

Server Application Error
The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance.

Event Log:
Unable to start a DCOM Server: {99169CB1-A707-11D0-989D-00C04FD919C1} as ../IWAM_BENSPC. The error:
"Access is denied. "
Happened while starting this command:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\dllhost.exe /Processid:{3D14228D-FBE1-11D0-995D-00C04FD919C1}
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

AND

The server failed to load application '/LM/W3SVC/1/ROOT/IISHELP'. The error was 'General access denied error'.
For additional information specific to this message please visit the Microsoft Online Support site located at: http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

If I try an ASPX application (http://localhost/multithreaded/default.aspx)

I receive:

Server Application Unavailable
The web application you are attempting to access on this web server is currently unavailable. Please hit the "Refresh" button in your web browser to retry your request.

Administrator Note: An error message detailing the cause of this specific request failure can be found in the application event log of the web server. Please review this log entry to discover what caused this error to occur.



Event Log:

Application popup: aspnet_wp.exe - Application Error : The exception unknown software exception (0xc06d007e) occurred in the application at location 0x77e73887.For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

I have reinstalled the .NET framework 1.1 (build v1.1.4322), VS.Net VB Standard Edition 2003, I have run ASPNET_REGIIS -i which completes with no errors... I have even tried a tip from MS site regarding changing the machine.config file <process...-> user to SYSTEM instead of MACHINE.

What am I missing here? I have virus scanned my computer. There is over 33 gig left on the disk. The user I am logged in as is an Administrator with all rights.

Thanks for any help you can give!

ben,

I ran into this problem as well with WIndows 2003 Server. Never got it right. But ASP.net posted a patch that fixed the issue with Windows XP... check it out at www.asp.net

See if that helps.

Thanks for the tip CJ. However this patch is only valid for framework 1 not 1.1 which is what I am running.
