Unable to create web project

[Guest]

Hi, i'm trying to open an existing ASP.NET project solution inside my VS.NET and i'm getting the following error. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Unable to create web project 'http://localhost/DotNetNuke'.The file path
'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\DotNetNuke\DotNetNuke' does not correspond to the URL
'http://localhost/dotNetNuke'.The two need to map to the same server location
HTTP Error 404:Object Not Found

Thanks in advance

When you have a web project and try to open it with VS.Net it maps the project to a Virtual Directory in IIS.

Open up IIS and validate you have a Virtual Directory named DotNetNuke whose Local Path is mapped to 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\DotNetNuke\DotNetNuke'. Once you do that you should be ok
