[senthilg]

I'm new to this asp.net while i'm creating a new website i got error like this i don't know what to do..
my error is...
" Configuring web site 'http://localhost/mysite to ASP.NET 2.0 failed. You need to manually
configure this for ASP.NET 2.0 in for your site to run correctly"

You might want to read the ASP.NET and IIS Configuration.

%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

and it worked for me

hello!!!
the error occurs because of the absence of the virtual directory of the website.
when u develop a website it automatically genrate its directory in ISS , when u carry a website from another system in removable memory device, it creates the same problem as u have mentioned.
to overcome the problem u have to create a virtual directry in The IIS for which follow the path..

START>>Control Panel>>Administrative Tools>>IIS>>New Virtual Directory(right click on Web Root) .
it will work for you.
