I am continually getting a 404 error on PSSK. I am using Windows Server 2003, and I even installed the Visual Web Developer and created the site on the server. I have no problems running it with ctrl-F5 or even using F5, it's when we try to access it from
IE on a different computer. I get a 404 error every time. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
Hmmm... If you right click on your web site in Internet Information Services and choose properties what does the ASP.NET version say under the ASP.NET tab
V2.50215, and it was 'prohibited'. Switched to 'allowed' and now I get this error: Server Error in '/' Application
I will change the Debug to 'Off' and see what I get.
Database 'C:\INETPUB\WWWROOT\POPEKIN.COM\APP_DATA\PERSONAL.MDF' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
Could not open new database 'C:\INETPUB\WWWROOT\POPEKIN.COM\APP_DATA\PERSONAL.MDF'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\PopeKin.com\App_Data\Personal.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
is the new error. Would having multiple instances of the Personal Website Starter kit cause this? If so, how to remedy?
No, you can have as many Virtual Directories using PWS as you want. It sounds like this was maybe moved to 2003 server from XP which would lock the database because the permissions are wrong. Is this the case? This shouldn't give this exact error, but also
check that Windows Authentication is chosen in IIS

The URL for the site I'm trying to publish is http://www.popekin.com
Also of note: the Welcome.html page can be viewed, but no .aspx pages.
Thanks again!

Thank you for your reply Rafa. I just tried that and it installed successfully. I still get a 404 error each time. Any other suggestions?

Actually I can't even ping the host. Are you sure the ip is mapped correctly or that there isn't any firewall configured to block port 80
