I have a web application that I am trying to run locally, it was an app the company used a long time ago and it need to come back to life, all the old developers are gone so I have to figure this thing out. Step 1 is to run it and see what needs to be changed.

Configuration Eror

Parser Error Message: An error occurred loading a configuration file: Failed to start monitoring changes to 'C:\xxx\index.aspx' because access is denied.

Source Error

[No relevant source lines]

Source File: c:\xxx\web.config Line: 0

So as you see, I can't complete Step 1 as I cannot get the projet to load... any ideas?

As you can see it is a right problem.

I'm not running IIS, I'm using VS2008 IDE, and I cant get the project to launch.

 Hi,

ASP.NET requires read, execute, and list access for the ASPNET account (which your ASP.NET website runs under)on the root Web site or on any virtual directory.

If your ASP.NET website is running on IIS, it is ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICES basing on IIS version; and if it is running from ASP.NET built-in server, it is your current user account logging in system.

For testing, you can grant "everyone" temporarily.

For more information, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/317955/

I look forward to receiving your test results.
