we've recently upgraded to Windows Server 2K3 and Visual
Studio .NET 2K3 and my developers are having problems
creating projects on the root. I am an admin of the box
and have no issues what-so-ever. They have
read/write/modify on inetpub and below. We even made them
popwer users, but they continue to get ther message:

"The web was created successfully, but an error occurred
when trying to configure the application root for this
web. Web projects may not operate correctly without an
application root. The returned error was: Active
Directory
Services cannot find the web server. A possible cause for
this is an incompatibility between versions of IIS on the
client and the server. The usual cause for this error is
creating Web projects on a Windows 2000 or newer server
from a Windows NT 4.0 client."


We all have the same version of IIS installed on our XP
workstations. We've never worked with FP extensions and
do not install them on our web servers. I'd appriciate
any feedback you could possibly provide.

Gratefully,

Hi,

Please reinstall IIS and then run aspnet_regiis.exe -i to reinstall ASP
.NET. Check to see if it works now.



Best regards,
