Unable to create a ASP.Net Web Application

[Ken Cox [Microsoft MVP]]

It sounds like you haven't got the ASP.NET server components (e.g, FrontPage
extensions) installed or IIS is not running.

When you are creating a new application, you should be giving its name like
[url]http://localhost/WebApplication1[/url] rather than using the file system.

When I'm trying to create a new ASP.Net Web Application, I
obtain this message: <<Cannot create the offline cache
in "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WebApplication1". Unable to create
a disk-based web at "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WebApplication1"
because it's parent web would not be a disk-based web.
Create the disk-based web elsewhere, outside of your web
server's document hierarchy.>>.
Anyone have an idea of what can cause this problem? Thanks
in advance for any help.

If you prefer to have your projects located in your filesystem, you can
first create a folder (c:\projects\newproject),
then create a Virtual Directory from IIS to point to it. Then, when you
create the project as [url]http://localhost/newproject[/url],
your files will end up in the folder you created.
