Hi Mates,
I had installed VS.Net on Win 2003 Server last month on FAT32 drive. Now
I am tring to create ASP.Net Web Application, and it is unable to create
one. I think that the problem is with Front Page Server Extension which is
not installed on my system and I think it cannot be installed on FAT32
system .... I would like to keep the upgradtion to NTFS as my last resort
for this problem as this would require me to format my whole system and then
install all the things once again :( ... Any idea or pointer to overcome
this ???

Thanks in advance.
Cheers and stay blessed.

As far as I know, you do not need to reformat the drive in order to convert
it into NTFS. Check KB article 307881, it's for Windows XP, but I assume it
will work on Windows 2003 - as this was also an option on Windows 2000.

The command to convert a drive from FAT to NTFS is (run from cmd)

convert <drive_letter>:\ /fs:ntfs

reboot, and you are set.


But, To the real problem... A, you should not be using WinServer2003 as a
desktop system... but, anyhow, FPSE is already installed on WS2003 when you
add the server to the WebServer role (under server roles). So, that is not
the problem. FPSE can be installed only on WinXP and below... So, could you
possibly post the actual error message that you get when you are trying to
create the application?

HTH,

Hi,

Check out the IIS6 configuration from msdn.microsoft.com

You need to start the ASP.NET ISAPI process within IIS.

If you are using Visual Studio 2002 with Win 2003, you need to configure IIS
6.0 for Framework 1.0 (Win 2003 has default .net Framework 1.1).

Paras.
