Hosting asp.net on Vista.

Reply Contact

I have IIS running on my computer. I can serve regular asp pages, but I get " Page cannot be displayed" error on .net pages. I followed all steps I could find, and downloaded the .net framework. I'm a little flustered now.

Tell us what steps you followed, and what doesn't work. Use a Hello World ASPX file to test. Make sure you installed ASP.NET support in IIS.

Look for Wrox's new book Professional IIS 7 in your local bookstore, or order now at Amazon.com

I have the same problem.

page not found when using http://localhost/sitename to view local asp.net website in a browser

I have installed windows vista and in

control panel > programs and features > Turn Windows features on or off

I have enabled Internet Information Services as well as in stalled .net frame work and check the Asp.net boxes in

control panel > programs and features > Turn Windows features on or off > Internet Information Services

if I type http://localhost the default page shows (iisstart) html document, but none of the default pages will show for any folders or asp.net websites I create for it.

also:

.aspx is not listed in the MIME types
does it need to be listed there? If so, what is the MIME type for the .aspx extention in iis7?

In IIS 6 on windows XP once iis 6 asp.net framework was installed all you'd have to do is righ click in iis to create an application and it worked when you goto http://localhost/site name
