visual studio .net enterprise tools: I've setup my site via the following post by ScottGu:
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/11/21/431138.aspx

So, under the startup options I chose "Use custom server" and the Base URL
is http://localhost:8081/

When I click on the launch button in the Performance Explorer, it says that
the URL doesn't map to a valid local website. But I know that it is running
because I can see it fine if I paste the url in IE.

If I "undo" everything in the post (so I'm using the default Web server) it
works fine, but my site is all messed up because the URL is different now.
All the pointers to my css and js files are "/js/myjsfile.js" and
"/css/mycssfile.css", because if I use the default web server, the url is
know "http://localhost:randomport/SubDirectory/"

Hopefully that makes sence.

Hi,

[quoted text, click to view]

I think Scott Gu's trick is wonderful to Run a root site with the Visual
Studio 2005, but it appears the Performance explorer unable to resolve that
base URL, I am afraid this behavior is by design in VS2005 performance
explorer.

Thanks for your understanding!
