Hi, I am not able to see the Asp.Net Tab in IIS 5.1. I have installed Visual
Studio 2005 on a Windows Xp SP2. When I following the step from the following
url, I can not see this tab. I am logged as an local Administrator user.

Does I have to do something ? I tried to reinstall VS 2005 but without
success....

Any idea ??? Does I need Front Page Server Extension or something like that
? Does some specific users must have specific right ?

thanks

Michel
 
Hey Denis was very helpful to develop and release a Version Switcher but if
the tab is still missing the tab is still missing and if the tab is missing
you have no access to the Edit Configuration button that launches the
ASP.NET Configuration Settings which is where 2.0 gives us a "control panel"
to build and manage connection settings, strings, authentication settings
and other sections which are declared and defined iin the web.config file.
If you don't use the 2.0 Configuration Settings you have to write and edit
web.config manually.

The ASP.NET Configuration Settings should also be accessible when using
Visual Studio 2005 but I just installed VS2005 and I don't know if the
ASP.NET Configuration Settings made it in or not.

That link I provided suggested two different options. The version switcher
and a registry modification. I assume the registry modification is is the
one you would want to try if you are having that problem with the tab
missing in IIS. I've never had the problem, so I don't know if it works or
not.

Haven't seen this same "control panel" inside VS 2005. But it does have
WSAT (Web Site Administration Tool)? On the toolbar Website->ASP.NET
configuration. (Note: Using this tool adds an xmlns=" attribute that breaks
intellisense in web.config).

For me, I just modify the registry and everything is ok now, I can see the
ASP.Net tab in IIS after this simple modification.

thanks again...

That explains that.
It was helpful for Greg to remind us that the ASP.NET Configuration tool
breaks intellisense for web.config. I read that the other day and these days
I need to see things several times before I can remember what bug I have to
deal with everytime something isn't working correctly.

I don't know if the ASP.NET Configuration tool does, but WSAT definately
does. Two different beasts, AFAIK.
