Visual Studio missing ASP.NET - WHY????

SilverBack · Post by **SilverBack** » 31 Mar 2006, 11:14

Hey guys,

Please shed some light here. I have Visual Studio.NET Enterprise Architect 2003 installed. Wanted to start programming in ASP.NET, so opened VS up and low and behold no ASP.NET!

My question: Why wasnt it shipped with this, and how can I obtain it??

Thanks
SB!

I think you might have to install IIS before the ASP.Net templates will appear. If that is already done then it might be the fact that you haven't registered (installed) asp.net by using the aspnet_regiis -i command

Let us know

I installed IIS before Vis Studio, so it should work. But uninstalled it last night and reinstalled just to make sure, but alas...same problem still.

Just found something about this aspnet_regiis you mentioned. Seemed a guy had a similar problem, and got fixed once it was run.

Where do I locate this prog and how do I go about running it? Looks like its run through cmd prompt. Please gimme a step by step list if you can, would really appreciate it...THANKS!!

EDITED - ok found this link on the app:

Not really sure if it will help though, cos the error I get is something along the lines of "cant find a web server for asp.net" or "something is not installed to run asp.net files". Now I wish I wrote down that damn eror message. Coulda resolved it sooner by searching in google...

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.net\FrameWork\V1.1.432\

run it thru the command prompt

aspnet_regiis -i

* UPDATE

Thanks for all the help guys. I did what you recommended (it worked) and then another error came up (cant remember exactly now). Wasnt a biggy, just had to change a setting in IIS and then, hey presto...ASP.NET was up and running!

Thanks again for all the help!
