Install on XP Home with visual studio 2005

I love this software but I am having a problem getting the software to run in a browser. Everytime I try and run it via VS 2005 built in web server I get an error and and nothing happens. It asks me if I want to send the error to microsoft etc. I followed the error and it appeared like the error was MSSQL related.

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

WebDev.WebServer has encountered a problem and needs to close.

 

It is like it crashes the web server. I have tried Cassini web server IIS and still the same problem. When I first downloaded the softrware it ran okay but timedout quickly.

What am I doing wrong?

It needs Dotnet framework 3.5. You probably need Visual Studio 2008.

I installed visual studio 2008 and framework 3.5

It does work better now and I am able to compile without any errors.

The problem now is that when I load the default.aspx page in the web directory visual studio 2008 freezes and I cannot go further.

Looks more like your machine issue rather than anything else. Do you have another dev machine that you can try it on?

Re: Install on XP Home with visual studio 2005
I'm I was having the same issue running from the built in web server using visual studio 2008/SQLExpress and XP Pro. 
 
Here's the steps that got things going for me.
 
1) Save the solution file (I created a dir in the default VS projects directory to save the sln file in)
2) Completely exit out of VS2008
3) Restart VS2008 and open the saved solution.
4) Build Solution
 
One thing I did notice when it was failing and hanging up the cassinni web dev exe was that the page requested was http://www.localhost.com:portnum/xxx.
Typically the address for any VS web project opens as http://localhost:portnum/xxx
 
Not sure if that last bit helps anyone or not.
