ASP.NET 1.1 and 2.0 installed on same machine.

I ran in to this error the other day when I installed Visual Studio 2005 on my machine and tried to debug a web project written in (.NET 1.1) and in .NET 2003 IDE.

“Unable to start debugging on the web server”

The following article was useful for checking some things.


I tried to repair .NET Framework 1.1 , adding the http://localhost to trusted sites group.

However, nothing helped me.

I then tried to go to IIS-> My Web Project node and rtclick and go to Properties window.
There, I clicked on General Tab -> Configuration button, this brought up an Application mappings window, which had .aspx resolved to 2.0 framework’s isapi dll, I changed it to point to 1.1 framework’s isapi dll and everything started working.

I hope this helps somebody there.

Tomato Soup

I hate to mix cooking with technical stuff that post on this blog...but cant help it....I made tomato soup last night and it came out dramatic...I was very pleased with myself... I used the following recipe.


1 lb. Tomato(ripe)
2 tbsps.
Sugar
1 tbspn Salt(or as required)
3 pinches Garam Masala powder
¼ tsp.
Red Chili Powder
1 tsp.
Butter or ghee
½ tbsp. All Purpose Flour

Method:

Boil the tomatoes till they are soft when you prick with a fork.

Remove peels..they should come off easily once boiled.

Blend till smooth. Strain to remove seeds.

Heat butter in a pan(or use ghee), add garam masala powder and fry for a few seconds.

Add tomato puree. Stir.

Dissolve the flour (maida) in a little water till smooth. Add the flour paste, stirring continuously, bring to a boil.

Add the seasoning, salt and sugar. Simmer for 5-7 minutes.

Serve hot with bread croutons, a swirl of fresh cream, and pepper.
