When I am trying to create new ASP.NET application is is throwing the following error message.

"The web server reported the following error when attempting to create or open the webproject located at the following URL "http://localhost/WebApplcation1". "Http/1.1 500 Internal Server Error"

Please note that IIS is running and ASPNet user is enabled.

You need to be more explicit.
What is the specific action that raises this error?
What have you done leading up to the error-raising event?
Have you checked Windows’ logs with Event Viewrer to see if there is any info there?
Do existing resources on the server respond properly to Internet Requests?

I have the same problem. When I write an asp file in a notepad it works fine but somehow i cannot create webproject in microsoft dev. enviroment.

In my case it helped to reinstall IIS
although it might not be a permanent improvement;) http://www.dotnet247.com/247referenc...51/255624.aspx

Scenario is very simple. I amjust trying to create one web application and the error is thrown. Initially VS.net2003 was installed and then I installed the IIS. IIS was running fine. Than I uninstalled the VS.net and then Installed again. I have not uninstalled the IIS. Only Vs.net ws installed again. Still same problem persisted.

I have also checked the event viewer nothing is getting logged.

Hi,

The solution could be pretty straight forward. I would recommend you try the following:

Open IIS Administrator (right click "my computer", select "manage", then open the "Services and Applications" node, open the "Internet Internet Sercices" node) and under the "Web Sites" node will be listed all the webs on the machine. Open one you are creating/loading projects from (usually this will be "Default Web Site"). Right click the web site and select "Properties" from the menu. This should open a property sheet. Select the "ASP.NET" tab/page. This should now list a host of information. Find the "ASP.NET Version" property, and make sure this is set to 1.1.xxxx and NOT 2.0.xxxxx



Hope this helps!
