Ok, so I'm trying to debug a web application, and I'm receiving the error messageFailed to map the path '/'. The strange thing is that Visual Studio doesn't reference where (the file causing the problem) the error is coming from, or any additional information such as line number, column or project (they are all blank). When I look at the output window this is displayed:
------ Build started: Project: http://localhost/, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------
Validating Web Site
: Build (web): Failed to map the path '/'.
I can browse the site just fine using http://locahost, but can't debug or build the site through Visual Studio without receiving the above error message.
System Info:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64
IIS 7.5
Visual Studio 2008 Professional
Also worth noting I originally was running Vista Ultimate, and the web site ran without any issues (meaning I could build and debug). I've now upgraded my computer to W7 (fresh install) and am currently trying to reinstall/configure this site for local development. Any guidance you guys could give me on trying to track this down would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
