Hi, I have installed Umbraco locally and it works fine with IIS. But I want to work on visual studio. When I copy the files over to Visual Studio, and point the IIS site to my folder where visual studio project is at - it keeps giving me the following error: When I point the IIS site back to folder where the umbraco was installed - it works fine again, but I really need to set it up with VS 2010 - please help me, many thanks is advance!

You should keep the site in IIS as it is and then instead create a new project in Visual Studio, which xcopies the files to your umbraco websites when you build the project.
Thank you Jan, I now have fixed the issue - In visual studio - I also had to move the Glsobal.asax and Global.asax.cs inside the bin folder and everything is working great now. Once again thanks for your reply and help!
Hello, just wondering if i should be doing this as opposed to opening the folder in inetpub as a website or simply createing a blank asp.net app and then pointing the build at the bin folder in the inetpub directory.
The easiest way to do this would just be to open the site as a website in visual studio. For DLL's that you would like to use with Umbraco create a class liabary and point the output directory of the build to intetpub/www/yourdir/bin
This is the way i am doing it at the moment :). Charlie

Hi Sanjeev
You should keep the site in IIS as it is and then instead create a new project in Visual Studio, which xcopies the files to your umbraco websites when you build the project.
Even though this article is from 2008 it has some good points, check it out: http://blog.leekelleher.com/2008/08/20/setting-up-visual-studio-to-work-with-umbraco/
Hope this helps.

When i tried to put the global to bin it still have an error page.

Hi Mark
What version of Umbraco are you using?
Since 4.10 (I think) the global.asax should be placed in the root of the folder containing your Umbraco installation - same level as the web.config.
Hope this helps.

version is umbraco v 4.11.3
its still error thanks for the support.
btw i used webmatrix 2
