I'm having problems creating ASP applications in VS 2003. The IDE hangs when
Initializing offline cache. Anybody have a solution?

Hi JTC,

From your description the VS 2003 IDE hangs when you try creating a new
ASP.NET 1.1 web application in local IIS, correct?

As you mentioned that the problem occur when the IDE is initalizing offline
cache, how did you get this? Also, does the creating web application used
to work or can you successfully open an existing web application from IIS?
BTW, VS.NET IDE will use a offline cache under the

c:\Documents and Settings\username\VSWebCache

So you can try manually clear that folder and restart VS IDE to see whether
it helps.

I've found that you can fix this error by deleting the .suo file that
accompanies the solution. A downside to this is that any web projects
will have to be re-added back into IIS (you'll need to delete the
existing one).

I can't point to a moment in time but I think that VS 2003 stop working after
a series of software installations or updates. The problem is with VS 2003
because VS 2005 works fine. I try reinstalling and deleting VSWebCache but
doesn't work.

I resolved the problem the hard way. I download the windows debug tools and
using the debugger (with the symbol server) I notice that the IDE hangs when
comunicating with the SCC provider (PVCS). In summary the problem was that
the Default Database path was incorrect. I corrected it and then all works
fine.
