Hi all,

I am new to .NET but I am trying to develop a C#.NET WEB Service. I can do
this on my laptop without any problems but when I try it on my desktop I
get an error

"The Web server reported the following error when attempting to create or
open the Web project located at the following
URL:'http://localhost/WebService1'. 'HTTP/1.1 500 Server Error'.

I have followed the help and it would appear to be a permissions/security
problem. I have made sure the directory and IIS settings are the same as
they are on my laptop without any success.

I am using VS2003.

Can anyone shed some light on this as I have been struggling for days now.

TIA
ALi G

Have you tried Visual Web Developer 2005 Express? It allows you to "copy"
your web site over to the new server with minimal hassle, and as far as i
know it does the permissions for you. As for permissions, whenever i copy a
web site like you did you should a.s "aspnet" user group to all the new files
and folders.

Hi Michael,

thanks for the feed back. Unfortunately I have to use Visual Studio 2003,
as that is what we are currently using.

Also I did not copy the service. I developed a seperate service on my
laptop. THhis worked so after the problems I had on my desktop I tried to
re-produce the problem on the laptop, but it worked. I then set the
permissions on the desktop to match the laptop.

Any other suggestions?

Ali
