The webserver reported the following error when attempting to create or
open
the
web project loccated at the following
URL:'http//localhost/Webapplication2'.
HTTP /1.1 500 Internal Server Error.
I cannot execute the application.
How can I repair that error?
I cannot work with web applications with visual studio.net.

Please tell us which version of Visual Studio you are using. From your
subject line, I'll guess VS 2003?
If I'm correct, have you checked to see that IIS is installed and working
correctly?
Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services.
If you don't find IIS, you'll need to install it from your OS CD.
If it appears to be OK, the mapping between IIS and Visual Studio may be
corrupt.
In either case (with IIS up and running), follow the instructions in
Knowledge Base article 306005 to remap VS to IIS:
