problem running a web service in XP
hello,
I have VS.Net 2005 installed in Windows XP professional, SP2. I used to create Web services in http://localhost/... and any web application created anywhere in the file system could access that service.
Lately I am unable to test run these services and subsequently, I cannot refer them in my applications. What could be the reason for it? Is the IIS making the problem?
I have also checked the Microsoft help for enabling proxy / IE options and all, but nothing happens except either Internal server error or 500 error.
Please help me, I need help.

Try disabling "Friendly HTTP error messages" in IE (Tools -> Internet Options... -> Advanced tab) and see it reports a more helpful error message. You might also check the event logs on your system to see if they provide a clue.

Hello,
Now I cannot run even the ASP.Net applications. I get this

Server Application Error
