'The selected file is not a valid Visual Studio solution file' error when opening solution from remote webserver
Hi all, This is my first post here. I have a problem I can not find the solution for. When I open a VS .NET solution file from a remote webserver (VMWare, Windows 2003 Standard) in VS.NET 2003, I get the error mentioned in the subject. When I open the same file from a local folder, it opens just fine (it's the DotNetNuke 3.0.13 solution file). I also have no problem creating a new webproject from VS.NET on the same (virtual) server, and edit and create new files in that solution / project. Any ideas why this happens?The reason I wan't to use the VMWare solution is that I'm not allowed to...
The selected file is not a valid Visual Studio solution file.
I have the VS version 7.0.9466. When i am trying to open the DotNetNuke.sln (of the new DNN2.0b1) i am getting this error. Is it because it is made with a newer version of the Visual Studio? Please help! Thank, Mike. In the documentation i haven't found anything about it. Maybe somebody from the development team can tell me? Or somebody who accually open the solution file? Tomorrow i will try with the version 7.1. Hope it will work. Open the DotNetNuke.vbproj instead of the .sln Then resave your .sln when you run it. The problem is (if you open the .sln in Notepad) t...
Remote Open Solution: The selected file is not a valid Visual Studio Solution file (but I'm running VS2003)
Trying to remotely 'Open from web' any of the .sln files within DNN and getting this message: 'The selected file is not a valid Visual Studio Solution file'. My remote is Win XP PRO, running VS 2003 7.1.3088 with .NET Framework 1.1. 4322 (SP1). I am able to open (supposedly) the same .SLN files on my local machine, i.e. the same ones that unzipped from DNN 3.0.13 download. Server is Win2003; I have complete admin control, but don't have VS installed on it. Thanks, Neal Walters ...
the selected file is not a valid visual studio solution file-urgent
hii installed dnn ver 3.0... i want to use it with access..when i try to open the solution file it gives me this error 'the selected file is not a valid visual studio solution file'i am using vs.net 2002pls respondas to what i can do to proceedthanks I do not believe that MS Access is supported as a back end database under DNN 3.x. If you truly want to use Access you will have to use DNN 2.x. There is a free, as in beer, database solution for DNN 3.x called 'MSDE'. If you look in the DNN documentation it will give you a source to download it from Microsoft. so installing and run...

Slolution File (.sln) missing how to open project in Visual Studio.NET
Hi,I have an ASP.NET application wherein, the solution *.sln file is missing. However all the other files (.aspx, .vb etc.) are there. Is there any way to open the project in VS.NET or do I have to contact the Author and request the .sln file?Thanks If there is a .vbproj or .csproj open that instead.

(Firefox 1.5.0.6) I'm having trouble with HTML Anchors (links) using the file: protocol. The URL I'm trying to get at looks something like this file://///Host.Domain/Share/Dir1/Dir2/File.Ext If I click on the link, /nothing/ happens but, if I 'Copy Link Location' and paste exactly the same thing into the 'address bar' in FireFox, FireFox is perfectly happy to show me the file.
