Hi,

Very basic question, I know it's just something fundamental that I'm missing. I'm just trying to do local development & testing.

How do you point localhost to a specific folder?

If localhost is at the default - c:\inetpub\wwwroot - I'm able to run the apps locally, with IIS, by pointing it to the specific folder, e.g. localhost/HelloUniverse

But nothing seems to work with localhost:7756/HelloUniverse or similar folders.

I guess I need the basic tutorial on how to use UltiDev. Just enough to be able focus on coding, and to learn more about UltiDev as needed.

Can someone point to a basic tutorial, about setting up UltiDev for local development? Thanks.

Hi there!

The easiest way to debug and test an application using UWS is to replace Visual Studio built-in web server. Then, if you select internal web server in project's web settings instead of IIS, UWS interactive host will run the application for you.

Please let us know if this information has helped.

Thanks, but unfortunately it's not a Visual Studio project.



Can someone tell me how to point to an application, using UltiDev?

For example, if the main code is located at

c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MyApp\MyApp.aspx,

and UltiDev is running, how do you specify this? Should it be localhost:7756/MyApp/MyApp.aspx?

Or something else?

Also, UltiDev can't coexist with IIS, correct?

Hello,

UltiDev Web Server Pro (UWS) co-exists with IIS just fine.

To register an ASP.NET application or static HTML site with UWS, please launch UltiDev Web App Explorer, click the big button and follow Wizard steps to register a site or ASP.NET app with UWS.

Ok, I think that answers one of the questions. It's not really what I'm looking for. I already have hosting for my main site. I just wanted an easy way to implementing local (local hard drive) hosting, purely for development purposes.

Something like EasyPHP, but for asp.net, rather than php.
