Web Server does not appear to have FrontPage Server Extensions

  1. Hello all,

    I am trying to implement the membership fuctionality on my site. I tried to step through the knowledge base article "How to configure the ASP.NET Membership/Roles Provider". When I try to connect via http which seems like the only option to access the "ASP.NET configuration tool", I get the message from Visual Web Developer 2008:

    "Unable to open the Web site"
    '<my_website_name>'
    "The Web Server does not appear to have FrontPage Server Extensions installed."

    I know it is probably something simple. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks

    joe

    that is correct we do not support frontpage extensions here. It's old stuff and microsoft deprecated frontpage as a product a while ago and they are deprecating frontpage extensions next month. don't use frontpage - use ftp or web deploy.
