Webclass question - VB6 and XP
-
I'm running XP professional, service pack 1 and have VB6 installed with SP5 and I can't seem to get a WebClass project to run correctly. Even the basic IIS project template won't work - I get an HTTP 500 error, cannot display page. It appears that the default directory under localhost may not be getting created correctly but even if I add an alias folder on my local default website it still doesn't work. I can run the basic IIS project under Windows 2000 just fine. Any thoughts? dpalazol

Why are you using Webclass? This was abandend by Microsoft and Webclass projects DO NOT convert to VB.NET. Webclasses were a good idea, but were a pain to use. I had nothing but problems with them. One project I was in the middle of developing just started to fail to compile after adding a couple lines of debug code. The failure was it couldn't resolve an external reference to a DLL that was used by the Webclass itself! I got to the point where I had to blow away the MACHINE and reload everything in order to get it to work again! My advice is to switch to VB.NET and save yourself the major headaches.
