I am trying out click-once on my local machine using Apache 2.2.

I have added following to httpd.conf

AddType application/x-ms-application .application
AddType application/manifest .manifest
AddType application/octet-stream .deploy
AddType application/octet-stream .msp
AddType application/octet-stream .msu.

I have given the publishing folder and the installation folder path to http://localhost. I am using vs2008 with 3.5 SP 1. When, I click publish I am getting this error

Error   23  Failed to connect to 'http://localhost/' with the following error:     Unable to open the Web site 'http://localhost/'. To access Web sites on the local IIS Web server, you must run Visual Studio under an Administrator account in order to have access to the IIS metabase. Alternatively, install FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) and then grant FPSE access to users who will run Visual Studio.

Please let me know what am I missing?

thanks

    Use a network share (e.g. \\localhost\publish-folder) or a local folder (e.g. C:\publish-folder) as Publishing Folder Location. Visual Studio must have write access to this location.
