Visual Studio is asking to create virtual directories in IIS when I open a solution. Could this be because projects within the solution have been configured to use IIS rather than Cassini?
The dialog message is:
“The local URI … specified for Web project … has not been configured. In order to open this project the virtual directory needs to be configured. Would you like to create the virtual directory now?”
Yes it is. If a web project is configured to use IIS (on the Web tab in the project properties -> “Use local IIS web server”), Visual Studio requires that the path defined exists in IIS as a virtual directory and corresponds to the project’s location on disk. If the path does not exist in IIS, Visual Studio will offer to create it for you.
