I am trying to get a web application project working, after we moved from a StarTeam repository to a TFS repository. I have a web site on my local IIS for the project; this web site is up and serving static content when I test it, but when I copy and past the URL to that site into the Local IIS Web server's Project Url in VS 2010, I get a message that the local IIS URL has not been configured. The popup that displays this message offers me the chance to create a new virtual directory, but this fails. Anyway, this is not what I wish to do.

Solution 1

I get a message that the local IIS URL has not been configured
Look at solution properties. Looks like project is configured to run on IIS and not in Visual Studio in built web server. Change the option to use it and see if it helps.

Solution 2

Oops, maybe I wasn't too clear. It is when I am trying to change from the built in server to IIS that I get the error.
