Access Forbidden

[jmerrill]

I am getting an Access Forbidden 403 error when attempting to build a vs.net solution. The box it is running on is Server 2003 and I am running V 5.0 of Visual Builder. The solution I am trying to build contains 9 projects with two being web projects. The web project it always fails on is called share.

This project compiles fine in VS. I have tried using the servername rather than localhost with no affect.

See if this updated version helps. Close VBP, extract the attached file to your VisBuildPro install path, restart VBP and try it again.

This resolved the problem - thank you.

I replaced the VisBuildDotNET.dll with the one in the attachment but it did not work for me. This is the error message I get:

Error loding info for project file 'http://localhost:81/Website.csproj': The remote server returned an error : (403) Forbidden.

I can build the solution fine with my old run program code that I used in the last version of visual build. The code is:

%DOSCMD% devenv %SolutionLocation%\%SolutionName%\%SolutionName%.s ln /build release

Please help so that I canuse the new features of the latest release.

Thanks.

Please send the following info to support@kinook.com and we can look into it:

1. Version/SP of VS.NET and the .NET Framework
2. The .sln + .csproj files in question.
3. The .BLD file with the Make VS.NET step that is failing.
4. An export of the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servi
ces\W3SVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots' if running IIS < v6.0

Thanks.

In jnapier's situation, it turned out to be that the web app was on a non-default web site. In order to build web projects on a non-default web site from VisBuildPro, you need to use a virtual directory for the web app and enable read access to project files (i.e., .csproj extension) in IIS.
