    <p>I had the exact same problem (Ektron version <strong>8.6.1</strong>) trying to run a 3-Tier minsite on my local machine (for dev), talking to a (staging) Application Tier.</p> <p>First I followed <a href="http://documentation.ektron.com/cms400/v8.61/Reference/Web/3-Tier/3-Tier.htm" rel="nofollow">the instructions for setting up a Presentation Tier</a></p> <p>One thing that is <em>not</em> mentioned in these instructions is the requirement that your Presentation Tier site's virtual path match that of the <code>appSettings &gt; ek_sitePath</code> value in the Application Tier's <code>web.config</code>. By default, this value is <code>/</code>.</p> <p>By default, when you open/create a Web Site Project and use the built-in VS server for development, the site's path looks like <code>http://localhost:wxyz/SiteName</code>.</p> <p>So you have 2 options:</p> <ol> <li><p>Change the <code>web.config</code> on Application Tier so <code>appSettings &gt; ek_sitePath</code> is the same as <code>/SiteName</code> (probably not the best option, since any new site development will require changing this again, and it could break production sites)</p></li> <li><p>Change the virtual path of your Presentation Tier site to <code>/</code>, which is easy to do as outlined in this <a href="http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2006/12/19/tip-trick-how-to-run-a-root-site-with-the-local-web-server-using-vs-2005-sp1.aspx" rel="nofollow">ScottGu blog post</a> (talks about VS 2005, I use 2010 and it was the same process)</p></li> </ol> <p>I took the latter approach, and everything is working smoothly now!</p>
