Could not start ASP.NET or ATL Server debugging.

Question

Hi,

I installed visual studio 2003 on windows 7.But I am getting following error on when I press the F5 for debugging.

Thanks

Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on the web server. Could not start ASP.NET or ATL Server debugging.

Verify that ASP.NET or ATL Server is correctly installed on the server.

Answer 1

The cause for this as per microsoft support is -

This problem occurs because the debugger does not send the debug action to IIS when you run the application. The debugger identifies your computer as localhost. However, in IIS, the Web Site Identification of the application is the IP address that you specified

Answer 2

I found answer :

iis manager -> computer name -> ISAPI and CGI restrictions -> aspnet v1.1... -> select allowed

(dont forget restart IIS.)
