I would like to thank you for sharing your knowledge of IIS! I am just beginning to program web services so I hope I explain this correctly. My development machine is Windows XP Pro and VS2005. My goal was to create a simple XML web service that converted a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius. I created the service in VB.Net and everything complied correctly. I then created a separate website that would consume the web service that I just created on my local machine. Well needless to say, nothing is easy. I never really paid too much attention in that my local development machine runs ASP.Net Development Server…. This is fine. But, in order for me to run the web service IIS had to be installed on my machine. Of course it was not. Well, after finding the download and adding the IIS component I was at least now able to find the web service I created on my local machine. However, when I would try and select the service I received the “a name was started with an invalid character” error. After searching the web with little success I came across your site. I followed what you said to do step-by-step and it worked beautifully!!! Thanks again!
First of I would like to thanks, for your appreciation. I will try to put all my good knowledge in the coming times.
Warm Regards,
