POASP .Net Page Can't Be Displayed Error
text
Body
copied!<p>I am having the strangest issue. My website has been working perfectly in Visual Studio 2008 until I tried to work on the website in Visual Studio 2012. Having abandoned that idea, I am now back to Visual Studio 2008 with the following problem.</p> <p><strong>Problem:</strong> </p> <p>Any page inside any folder displays a "Page can't be displayed" error or similar in all browsers (IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari) <strong>UNLESS</strong> the page is a Default.aspx page. Break points do not load for any of the pages having problems, although debugging is enabled in Web.config. There are no errors in the event viewer.</p> <p><strong>Possible reason for problem:</strong></p> <ul> <li>I tried working on the website in Visual Studio 2012. After it didn't recognize any of the imports, etc., I decided to just continue using Visual Studio 2008.</li> <li>I also deleted all of the files and folders in my %temp% directory</li> </ul> <p><strong>What I've tried:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Create a new blank page in any folder to see if it will display; the page has the same error</li> <li>Comment out all code on an existing non-Default.aspx page; same problem</li> <li>Check the hosts file; nothing is active and other changes I've made had no effect</li> <li>Browse to another page from Default.aspx; same problem "Page can't be displayed"</li> <li>Checked for new AV, malware, etc. software recently installed; none installed</li> <li>Created a new site on the same machine to see if new site will have the same problem. New site works just fine.</li> <li>Cleared out the contents of C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files; no change</li> </ul> <p><strong>Environment:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Visual Studio 2008 on Windows 7 x64. The backend is in VB .Net</li> <li>Running on the developer machine using ASP .Net Development Server</li> </ul> <p>Any and all help is appreciated.</p> <p>Thank you.</p>
