I have no idea what happened here...but I can NOT open my .Net project!!

I get this msg:

Web Access failed:

The default access mode set to this project is set to file share,
but the project folder at 'http://localhost/ASPPorj' cannot be
opened with path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ASPProj'.


Found this on Google and tried it but still cannot open my project:

When you first open the VS .NET IDE select Tools ->
Options. You will now see the option window with a
category tree on the left.

- Select the 'Projects' node and then the 'Web Settings'
child node.

- You should now see a button on the right that
reads 'Connection Settings'. Click that button.

- In the 'Internet Properties' window that comes up
select the 'Connections' tab. On that tab click the 'LAN
Settings' button.

What's going on???? this was working fine
 
I would check to make sure your web server is running and that you can get to your project using your browser. This error seems to indicate that the project cannot be accessed via the web, which points to your web server.

Did you cut and paste this error message? If so, then the name of your project folder 'ASPProj' does not match the name of the web directory 'ASPPorj'. Either rename the ASPProj folder or change the alias in your webserver.

HTH
 
FIXED...Have no idea how this happened but in IIS, the name of the application was dropped so, the path was only up to wwwroot and didnt include the application folder..

Thanks for your ideas..
