I've finally finished the book but hit a wall. I'm able to view the website after deploying using "Publish Web Site" and "Copy Website" but with both methods I'm not able to view the entire page with THEMES. I can only see the HTML markups. I'm also not able to see pictures within the albums.

Doubled check everything in the book and still can't figure it out.

Running Windows 2008 Server.

Thanks!

Hi there,

What do you mean with "can only see the HTML markups"? Do you see the raw ASPX source, or the final, parsed HTML?

Have you tried a very simple Hello World as shown in the first chapters and see if that works?

I'm able to see the final parse HTML without the masterpage theme. I hope that makes sense.

When I open the MasterPage.master on the server where I deployed the website. Under the DESIGN view, I see the following error: Error Creating Control - ScriptManager1 Cannot find web project item 'D:\WesiteDevelopment\PlanetWrox\Release\MasterPag e.master'.

I did double check if the MasterPage.master exist within the directory listed above and it does. The same message is displayed for Menu1, TreeView1, SiteMapDataSouce1, CPMainContent. Not sure if this just means the Controls hasn't been compiled.

Hi there,

Is D:\WesiteDevelopment a folder local to the Windows server where you are deploying the site?

What's the root path that you configured for the site in IIS? And how do you browse to the site? E.g. http://something?

If that doesn't help, can you send me a zipped copy of the *deployed* site so I can take a look?

Cheers,

Imar
