You could try disregarding the solution file. In VS, open one of the
*project* files instead of the solution file. VS will create a new solution
for you. Then, manually add the remaining projects to the new solution
(Add/Existing Project...), and save the new solution. This has worked for
me in the past.

Hi all,

We are facing this big problem.
Scenario is as follows.

We have one single solution (say EIS) under which there are 25 projects. All
the files are saved at a central location under Visual Sorce Safe on a
seprate machine. For a new person who is trying to setup this solution file
on his / her local machine follows the following step.
1. "Set working folder" for the EIS folder from VSS on to his local machine
(by defualt D:\EIS)
2. Do a "get latest version" of all the files from VSS on to his local
machine.
3. After all the files are copied on to local machine, EIS.solution file is
opened in to Visual Studio environment by double clicking it.
4. For first time it ask for the server mapping for the projects under the
solution file. On click of OK it creates virtual directory for EIS under IIS
and further directories for projects under EIS (under IIS).

Now problem is after it has added all the folders under IIS, visual studio
hangs indefinately... and we are forced to do end task of the same.

Again opeing EIS solution file, tries to create further directories under
IIS and does not refer to the already created directories.

We are not even able to locate the source the problem.

Someone kindly help on this.

Thanks & Regards
