I developed a small web application for my company in the PC I use in our network which has Visual Studio 2005 installed. Such a network has a Windows 2003 Server that includes IIS with ASP.NET 2 as a web service extension permitted. We already have a web site developed with Dreamweaver but it is a static site. The web app I developed with VS2005 would be part of the existing web site (maybe in a subdirectory of wwwroot) and would be accessed by a hyperlink. It works fine in my PC and now I want to publish it but I find the following:
* When using the COPY WEB SITE option I first try to connect to the
company's site specifying "http://www.mysite.com" (which is the domain used) or "http://192.168.0.2" (which is the private IP address of the IIS server) but I get a message that says "Unable to open WEB 'http://www.mysite.com'. You are not authorized to perform the current operation".
* When using the PUBLISH WEB SITE option I select a remote site and type
http://www.mysite.com or
http://servername and I see activity in my PC hard disk but nothing happens in the wwwroot directory of the IIS server machine.
I will greatly appreciate any advice.
