• .NET Development HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden

  (I was directed here from the VB Express website) I am using VIsual Web Developer and downloaded the small business application to use as a starting point to help my wife get a website up for her small business. When I load the application, I can F5 and it runs fine but as soon as I make any modification to the app and hit F5, I get the HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden when it tries to show the website. I notice a pop up that occurs when I run that allows me to choose the link for my app and it displays correctly (I close the webpage that has the error on it). This seems like a pain, is there a setting I'm missing - I would think that this should "just work". What's up Thanks, Rick ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Problem using bluetooth sdk from C++ - error 126, The specified module could not be found when calling BluetoothEnableDiscovery

  Hello, Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. After googling for several hours I've been unable to find any answer to this problem. I'm using C++ (compiled under Visual Studio 2005) and the bluetooth API from the windows platform SDK. I've included my source code at the end of this posting and its output; I have tested it on several machines and always get the same results. My problem is that if I execute the function BluetoothEnableDiscovery(NULL, FALSE), it always reports that it works (e.g. it always returns TRUE), but then when I check the last error code, it always returns error 126 (The specified module could not be found), and it doesn't disable discovery like it's supposed to (e.g. if I go into control panel, double cl ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies WDS not returning results based on picture meta-tags

  I'm searching for pictures based on keywords and description tags but the only results I get back are pictures where the search words are only in the actual file name. I had installed JPEG iFilter; that didn't get the results I wanted so, having read which files WDS indexes and seeing that it indexed picture files using the meta-data, I uninstalled JPEG iFilter with the hope that WDS would get me the results I wanted but it doesn't. I've re-indexed a couple of times but that hasn't helped. Any ideas CAR JPGEG iFilter just indexes some metadata. To have access to all metadada I installed PixVue. However, as I already reported in this forum, the files indexed by PixVue don't show under "Picture ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Cannot add solution to source control

  Hi, I am trying to add my solution to source control but am repeatedly getting this error: The project F:\***\Folder\MySolution.sln cannot be added to source control. In folder F:\***\Folder, it overlaps a project that is already bound to source control at a lower root. To avoid this problem, add the project from a location below the binding root of the other source controlled projects in the solution. I have no idea what it is trying to tell me or how to get around it. Googling only turned up one potential answer ( http://dotnet.org.za/willy/archive/2006/04/11/51463.aspx ) which I also don't understand because this is the first time I've used team explorer. Does anyone know how to get around this issue or what the error m ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Problems getting XNA working

  I've installed all required files for MSFT Game Studio Express to function. I've installed SP1, released yesterday for Visual C# Express. I've installed the XNA framework, .Net 1.1 framework, .net 2.0 framework, the directX December 2006 SDK, and platform SDK (for other reasons). I've found that there's a problem getting the XNA Transport Server started. In this situation, I cannot deploy anything to my 360, which is sitting next to my computer, on the same network/subnet. When I manually run the XNA Transport server (C:\Program Files\Microsoft XNA\XNA Game Studio Express\v1.0\Bin\XnaTrans.exe), it gets further in deployment, and tells me that the 360 has timed out.
