VISTA, IIS 7, VS 2005 SP1 and CSLA.NET

Gareth posted on Monday, January 08, 2007

Hi all, I'm now running Windows VISTA Ultimate Edition (MSDN RTM) along with Visual Studio 2005 with Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 1 for VISTA (BETA) applied.

CSLA.NET / ProjectTracker is working okay when running locally but if I try and use the Remoting implementation (or anything that utilitises IIS7.0 for that matter) I get errors. At first I was getting the "Unable to start debugging" messages but I was able to resolve this by attaching to the worker process thread after running the application without debugging (CTRL + F5). However now I am getting a binary serialisation error message.

I am guessing that something is wrong with my IIS7.0 setup and I need to delve in further to trace into the TCP messages to see what the actual error is but I just thought I'd see if anyone has got CSLA.NET + ProjectTracker working in a Remoting environment in VISTA.

Many thanks,
Gareth.

Gareth,

I think you migh be on the bleeding edge for this setup.  I don't have any Vista installs, but I would be interested to know what solution you come up with.

There's arleady an SP1 for Vista? Wow.

It isn't a VISTA SP1. It is the SP1 for VS2005 to run on VISTA.

Check out blogs by Scott Guthrie and Rick Strahl for advanced scenarios like this. Rick always runs on the bleeding edge.

Hmm, I guessed as much. Has anyone got any links to a decent TCP tracer utility?

Thanks,
Gareth.

I setup a copy of my dataportal on IIS 7.0 (Vista Ultimate) about 2 weeks ago.  I didn't have any troubles.  In fact I just copied the binaries from the dataportal on my windows 2003 test server and it worked.  I am developing on VS2005 SP1 (not on Vista, but on W2K3 SP1).  Note, I'm using CSLA.net 1.53.
