[2005] Windows 2000 Server

[maikeru-sama]

I am new to ASP.Net 2.0. Can you run and ASP.Net 2.0 Web Application on Windows 2000 Server?

I just created a new Web Application and I get:
Unrecognized configuration section 'connectionStrings'

When I just try and navigate to the site.

can you post the code of web.config file .

First, when I try to make a New ASP.Net Web Site (http://www.mydomain.com/virtualdirectory), it tells me:

"The web server doesn't appear to have the Front Page Server Extensions installed"

Second, there is no code for the web.config. Whatever the default code is when you first make a new Web Project is what is in there. I simply changed the location from HTTP (which I cannot get to work) to File System and after VS.Net 2005 saved those files, I tried to navigate to the default page to see what it looks like and it gave me that error.

Note, this is a Web Server I have maintained at my house for several years. It has been running ASP.Net 1.1 applications fine, so I have the freedom to do anything to make it ASP.Net 2.0 compliant.

If Windows 2000 Server does not run ASP.Net, I will have to get a web host, which would suck but I would have to do it .

No, I have not done that. So do I literally open up a command line and run that command you typed in?

Okay, after doing some research, I am able to make a new site with "File System".

However, I am just wondering why I get the FPE error when the Location is HTTP.

When you all do a brand new site using HTTP, how do you input the url?
I am doing:
http://www.mydomain.com/virtualdirectory

Go to Add/Remove programs, then Add/Remove Window Components. You should be able to install FPSE in there.
