Are you putting a valid sharepoint site into the Site URL: field?

Thanks for your response.

I use a URL that can access to sharepoint site with IE.

i had the same problem, took me a few hours of problemsolving til i realized the solution:
1.go to project properties
2. build tab
3. target machine: 64x

worked like a charm for me, hope this helps.. no exercises in chapter 5 worked for me without a few hours of problemsolving

That fixed it for me as well - don't know why the app had to be targeted specifically for x64, but then again, we're only running this on x64 boxes and the normal code production is set for x86.

that is because sharepoint server can only be run on 64x machines, the target machine has to be 64x when making a client-side code running towards it, while, when making code run with serverside object model i dont think u need to change it, but it took a while to realize it, and this information should of course be in a book for us newbies in sharepoint

Thank you Misken, I would have never figured that out... (the 64x thing).

I also noticed that I have to create the list called Products first with 3 fields in it.... I don't think the book mentioned it---edit: just look at it again, it did mention the list before the example. Maybe it should cut that and paste into the example as step 1.

The author has created an errata list - if anybody is going through the examples, it's a good idea to check it out to see what's needing correction. Check him out at:
