steveblue Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 just a quick update on this, i have discover that the problem is with my AV software blocking connections to the Visual Studio ASP.NET Server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) Strange. I've never seen the issue. It normally works out of the box.Maybe you're running some kind of firewall that blocks connections to it?Also, it would be helpful to have a more descriptive error message than "cannot display the page".Edit: oops. looks like you got it solved. So much for opening 50 different tabs and answering them later. Edited July 23, 2008 by crahak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 My solution was removing the next line in the windows host file C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts::1 localhostThis is an IpV6 entry. Put a # in front of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
