RE: Unable to open the Web project

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Well, first, I guess I am trying to find the thing we did or didn't do
before. We have other projects implemented in the same way and checked in but
we didn't see to have the same issues on those projects - just this one.

What frustrates me is my test - pointing it to my server - doesn't work
because it ALWAYS looks to localhost no matter what I try. Multiple people
will be working on these web services so to require a central server is not
viable for us.

I will do it, but what is the diff of when you create the virtual dir?

"force a mapping" - what do you mean? The only thing I forced was changing
the server name in the webinfo file from localhost to my computer name to
force the other machine to look to my computer - this was only done for a
test. We need to run local most of the time.

More info - I completely deleted everything related off my machine and
removed the virtual directory and started over. I checked everything out,
created the VD and then opened the project and all was well on my machine. I
just cannot figure why this would be different on someone else's machine -
and if it is, what file I need to adjust to get it right.
