Did you install your application in the .NET section of Abyss?

MS Visual Studio will try to upload the files to the web server using Front Page extensions which are only available on Microsoft's web server IIS.

Instead of using this mode, configure your project to save files in a normal directory where Abyss Web Server expects to find the application (for example, ask MS Visual Studio to deploy files in C:\Program Files\htdocs\test if Abyss Web Server's Document Path is C:\Program Files\htdocs. This way, you will be able to browse your ASP.NET application by visiting http://yoursite/test ).

For more information, please refer to http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;326356 . The recommended method is using "File Share" deployment and not "Web access method".

Hello,

I am having exactly the same problem as above. I have the following platform:

Abyss Web Server X1 (v 2.3.2)
Visual Studio 2003 (v 7.1.3088)
.NET Framework 1.1 (v 1.1.4322 SP1)
Windows XP Home Edition (v 5.1.2600 SP2)

When I try to create an ASP.NET Web Application project, I get an error saying "Visual Studio.NET cannot create or open application.The likeliest problem is that required components are not installed on the local webserver.Run Visual Studio.NET setup and add the Web Development component".

I think Abyss Console is set up correctly. I have tried various ASP.NET Parameters, for example:

Virtual Path .NET Version
/ONE 1.1
/TWO 2.0
/ 1.1
/ 2.0

I have also checked that Visual Studio's Web Setting's prefered access method is set to "File share" (and not "FrontPage Extensions").

However this does not appear to make any difference. When I try to create an ASP.NET Web Application project, Visual Studio won't let me create with a local file location (e.g. "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\MyApp") and will only let me create with a web location (e.g. "http://localhost/MyApp").

At this point I get the error saying "Visual Studio.NET cannot create or open application... etc etc".

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. ANY HELP APPRECIATED.

Best regards,
James

James2000,

Try creating a shared directory on your computer as follows:

1. Start Windows Explorer.
2. Locate and then click the htdocs/ folder.
3. Right-click the right pane, point to New, and then click Folder.
4. Name the folder wwwroot.
5. Right-click wwwroot, and then click Properties.
6. Click the Sharing tab, and then click to select the check box for Share this folder.
7. In the Share name text box, type wwwroot$.
8. Click Permissions.
9. Under Permission, click to select the check box for Full Control, and then click OK.
10. Click OK.

(Instructions inspired from http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;821628).

When configuring the file share use the UNC path \\YOURCOMPUTER\wwwroot$ where YOURCOMPUTER is to be replaced by the name of your computer (check your Windows network settings to know it).
