Default Getting Code To Work

Hi. I am having trouble getting code to run.

I have the ASP.Net 1.1 Pro book. I downloaded the code. I installed it on my WinXP machine that has msde, .Net framework, .Net Framework SDK, and Visual Studio 2003 Standard installed. The config program for the code gave errors when creating the databases, so I use a different program and pasted the sql code from the Database directly and executed it.

Now, whenever I double click on an aspx file, it opens in Microsoft Development Environment instead of the browser. If I right click on the NewASPNet.aspx under the chapter 4 directory, choose Open With, then click on Internet Explorer (ver 6.0.2800) then all I get is "Please select your delivery method:" without a drop down list nor a button. And yes, I did create a system dsn called DsnNorthwind and tested to make sure it worked.

I must be doing something fundamentally wrong. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Assuming you have IIS installed on your local machine how are you viewing your .aspx pages? Did you install IIS before you installed VS.Net/.net Framework?

Hello,

When you open it that way, it's not opening the right way. It's opening as a file, not part of the web site. So when you do it that way, it ignores the code behind file, web.config, everything. You have to do it as http://localhost/filename.aspx, whereas when you double-click it, it opens as c:\inetpub\wwwroot\filename.aspx, which is inherently different.

Thanks for your thoughts. They were not the answer to my problem. Another symptom was that I could not create a new webform project in visual studio .net standard due to the wrong version of ... 1.1 ... etc. I rebuilt my system and did not install the .NET framework sdk, and now it works. I can now create web forms in visual studio.Net.

I am now getting a 'resource cannot be found' error when running:
http://localhost/58900_VB/04_Writing...es/NewASP.aspx

I created the DsnNorthwind and tested it. I now have the msde installed using NetSDK instance. As well, while the EventBubbling.aspx works, the _withState sample does not. I will continue to work on this to try to figure it out. If anyone has any ideas that could point me in the right direction, they would be appreciated.
