Typically, I build my web applications using the connection to "localhost", and after it works I copy the project files to the website where they are needed.

 

Sometimes (like now), the projects on the web do not quite act the same as they do from "localhost" (specifically, I can not call the same mail server).

 

I tried to open the file on the website with "Open Project > http://www.mydomain.com/aspnet_client" where my project file shows up after I enter the Username/Password. Great! Everything seem to be working.

 

But when I double-click on the solution file to open it, I get the error "The selected file is not a valid Visual Studio solution file."

 

What causes this? How can I get around it? I even tried FTPing the files directly to the site, just in case MS's Visual Studio was uploading special versions.
