following error:
The Web server reported the following error when attempting to create or
open the Web project located at the following URL: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error>
Does anyone know how to, DEFINITIVELY, resolve this problem/error? If so,
please help me. As I have indicared, I have been experiencing this error for
months - I am just about ready to junk this software! Please reply directly

Thanks

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

By "open a new asp.net project" i take it you mean create a new asp.net
project? Are you using front page extensions?

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

I'm interested in a resolution for this problem also. I have a brand
new, clean development machine running XP Pro and SP2 with VS 2003 and
the latest .NET framework. I've tried every suggested resolution I
could find (opening up permissions, reinstalling IIS, etc) and nothing
has worked. New suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

Yes, to both. I am trying to create a new asp .net project, yes, I am using
front page extensions.
Any help is appreciated

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

Have you tried reinstalling front page extensions? What IIS is hosting
the applicaiton(IIS 6 on Server 2003, IIS 5.1 on XP/2000)?

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

Have you tried not using FrontPage extensions and, instead, using file-based permissions ?

Frontpage Server Extensions (FPSE) are no longer required for IIS web applications.

Visual Studio 2005 has built-in support for editing and updating remote web projects
using the standard File Transfer Protocol (FTP). You can connect to a remote Web site
using FTP within the New Web Site and Open Web Site dialog box.

Using the "Publish website" feature lets you deploy websites without FPSE.

I didn't read your original message saying you were
using VS 2003 because I have been away on a trip.

I assumed you were using VS 2005.

I was trying to help you, even if I missed your original post.
I'm beginning to be sorry I tried to.

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

OK, llevi.

I only thought that my reply was clearly marked
as referring to VS 2005 and not to VS 2003.

re:[color=blue]
> Un saludo, honesto y de corazon![/color]

Y un saludo devuelto, sincero de corazon!

Back to the point : you do need FP extensions to publish VS 2003 websites.

Maybe upgrading to VS 2005 would be in order,
if you want to publish websites without FP extensions.

If you don't have access to VS 2005, VWD 2005 is a good substitute.

VWD 2005 is free, this year, and so is the .Net Framework 2.0.

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

I would try uninstalling front page extensions and then reinstalling
them. A 500 error is probably something with the front page
extensions.

HTH,

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

OK,

Ultimately, I did what you suggested - I installed VWD 2005 ( did hot have
VS 2005), all is well, so far. Thanks for your help, and if you ever hear
about a solution to myy problem, please let me know.

Re: HTTP1.1 500 Server Error

Ok, I give up. After months of dealing with this problem, listening and
trying this and then that, and then the other, still NOTHING HAS WORKED! Are
you listening gurus? NOTHING HAS WORKED!. All you apologists for Microsoft
(and until today I was one of them) should read into this carefully: NOTHING
HAS WORKED!
Regardless of what you say, I should be able to , CLEANLY, remove and
re-install ANY software without sepending the better part of a year to no
avail. I challenge you all to come up with a DEFINITIVE answer. I doubt that
you can. At any rate, Good luck! Thanks to all for your help.
Levi out!
