I just downloaded and installed the new Resource Toolkit and am having a
problem. Where is the best place to ask for help on this?

Here's what happened.

I installed on a winXP system. It installed fine and I started it up with
the welcome screen. I then installed the ComponentOne controls. Now when I
run the welcome from the start menu, the browser says the page cannot be
displayed. If I go into the directory and try to display it directly, it
comes up as pure HTML in the development environment. It seems that now the
ability to display ANY .ASPX page has disappeared. Something in the
ComponentOne installation process broke my system.

I also tried to install on a Win2k system,and the same thing seems to be
happening.

Thanks for your help.
 
Hi Bill,

Thanks for posting.

When you mentioned "VB Resource Toolkit", did you mean the "Visual Basic
.NET Resource Kit"?

The "Visual Basic .NET Resource Kit" is available at the following site.
Please have a check and we need to make sure that we are talking about the
same thing:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/vbrkit/default.aspx

If this is correct software you mentioned, I think that we have a "Repair"
option for it. Simply run the "setup.exe" and we will see it in the wizard.

Please give it a try and see whether it helps. If not, let me know the
exact error message when you open the "Welcome" page.

I hope the information I have provided here is useful to you.

Regards,

On the WinXP machine I rebooted and the problem went away.

On the win2K machine, I rebooted and the problem persists. When selecting
the toolkit from the START menu, I get a FILE DOWNLOAD dialog asking
permission to OPEN or SAVE a file from LOCALHOST. If I say OPEN, it opens
in the development environment as pure HTML in a text editor.
 
you need to run from your .NET framework folder

aspnet_regiis.exe -i

that will register your IIS server to host ASPX pages.
