For a VS.net class we were to set up the .net framework 1.1 with SDK &
quickstart samples.
I installed:
1. .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package
2. .NET Framework Software Development Kit Version 1.1
in this order. I had to change the default document in IIS 'quickstart'
subsite to default.aspx in order to get localhost/quickstart to work.
I'm trying to run sample from 'a personalized portal' and am getting
this error:
Server Error in '/QuickStart/aspplus/samples/portal/VB' Application.

I have MSDE SQL Server 2005 express installed on the Windows XP
Professional SP2 Machine. I created a database called NETSDK. Any
ideas what is the problem?
