Configuring new web to use localhost -weeping at this p... - 12/3/2004 2:00:47   
Hello all,

I'm trying to use FP 2002 to set up an empty web with the address http://localhost/myweb

However, whenever I do this, a box flashes on the screen that says it is creating it, and then goes away without creating the web, and I am right back to the create empty web screen. I can create new webs fine on the C drive, but not on localhost...

I have XP pro and IIS installed, as well as ASP.net. I have deleted and reinstalled Front Page - no luck. Please someone help!

File>>Open Web>.http://localhost>.enter Username and Password (if asked)>>Create a SubWeb

Done, it will act as it's own separate web, so you won't notice much difference

What do you have at the attached screenshot? You should have a different layout due to the different FPSE versions (I'm on FPE2k at the mo), You're settings should technically be the same as you see below
