.NET Version on IIS server (service)

visual studio .net setup:

I've been through the KB articles Q3060065, 325093, 812405, 816,782, 816783,
and 817267.

I've used the aspreg_iis.exe utility to uninstall, reinstall, list, etc. and
I've used regsrv32 to register the .NET framework v1.1.4322 over and over
again.

CLI> "aspnet_regiss -lv" returns the version number 1.1.4322

I've uninstalled and reinstall VS Professional 2003; I've uninstalled and
reinstalled the IIS 5.1 component of Windows Xp; and I've uninstalled and
reinstalled the .NET framework...over and over again and in different
sequences.

I still get the same message whenever I attempt to create a new .NET Web
Application or a new .NET Web Service:

"Visual Stuido .NET has detected that the specified Web server is not
running ASP.NET version 1.1. You will be unable to run ASP.NET Web
applications or services."

Oddly enough, I was able to download and SUCCESSFULLY RUN the ASP.NET
Starter Kit called "Issue Tracker" with no errors.

When I use the IIS MMC snap-in and highlight the Default Web Site, I don't
get any options under the Action menus to start, stop, or configure anything
related to .NET or ASP.NET.

Are there any other solutions out there besides the ones I've outlined
above?

Steve,

Visual Studio sends a dummy request to the server to find out the version
number. The version number is contained in the header of the error response.
Try loading IE and entering a URL that ends in aspx something like:

http://localhost/PageThatDoesNotExist.aspx

You should get an error back from ASP.Net that tells you the version number,
if you don't you may get something that can point us in the right direction.

Do you have a firewall installed or have you ever run IIS Lockdown/Baseline
Security Analyser?
