Maybe I am missing something obvious here (if I am, I apologize), but no matter how I install this, it doesn't seem to work.
By that I mean that I enter in the correct server address (I tried both IP and DNS), I enter my username, and my password. I hit submit and basically the page refreshes. No error messages, nothing.
After reading through the other threads here, I tried this (hoping it would work):
Chances are your webserver defaults to C:\Inetpub\wwwroot as the place to install webapps. Either put ASPEntMan in there (in a subdirectory), or whereever you've set your server's home directory to.
Next, open up IIS Manager (start>run>inetmgr), and expand the Websites Tree. Right click on the directory you made for ASPEntMan, and choose Properties. Towards the bottom of the tab there is a button entitled "Create". Click it, and then click Okay to get out of there.
You should be able to browse to ASPEntMan now.
If you see what looks like sourcecode when you browse to the app, do this:
Start>run>cmd
cd %windir%\microsoft.net\framework\v1.0.3705
aspnet_regiis -i

Thanks for the information. Hopefully I can make some progress on this tonight.
Just to be overly clear about this:
1. I install the ASPEntMan on my webserver (in this case my webserver and my computer are two different boxes. I am presuming this is ok? *** Or should I install both ASPEntMan and the .NET Framework on my pc and then run ASPEntMan from my pc using IIS?***)
2. I install the .NET framework on my pc (did this last night).
3. I follow the directions you give above to run ASPEntMan.
Sorry about asking so many questions. I would really like to get your software to work!
Thanks.

Does the Webserver have the .Net Framework installed on it? It needs this in order for ASP.Net apps (i.e. this one) to run.
If its installed on the server, you should try the following two things:
1. Right click the directory, and choose the security tab, and ensure that the ASPNET account has Read, Execute, and List permissions.
If that doesn't work:
Start>run>cmd
cd %windir%\microsoft.net\framework\v1.0.3705
aspnet_regiis -i
Repeat Step 1
You should do all of this on your server. If the SQL server is accessible over the network from your PC, or over the Internet, you can install ASPEntMan on your PC and connect to the SQL server remotely...

No, I do not believe that my webserver has the .NET framework installed, which would explain my earlier issues.
But, the SQL Server is accessible via the internet (ie, my PC), so I *should* be able to install the .NET framework, and IIS(not sure if necessary), and then ASPEntMan on my PC, run everything from my PC, and (hopefully) get it to work (which I believe is your last suggestion).
Again, thanks for all your help and your patience!

I was having the same problem where I would attempt to login and it would keep returning to the login page w/o errors.. Here is what I did and now it's working great!
1- make sure both global.asax and web.config are in the server root
2- make sure app and bin are just off the server root
3- make sure there are no blank lines at the top of web.config
4- have my host reset/fix .net permissions
Thanks for such a great app -- I'm looking foward to testing it out some more.

Just in case anyone else happens across this thread, I was having the same exact issue (received the Server, Username and Password prompt but clicking Login just refreshed the page) and while playing around (knowing nothing about ASP.NET or IIS) I noticed that in the IIS properties of my site on the ASP.NET tab the ASP.NET version was empty. I first tried the 2.x version and got a bunch of errors, went back in and tried the 1.x version and it works perfectly. Hope this helps someone...

/webroot/global.asax
/webroot/Web.Config
/bin
/app
but the exact same thing happens.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.
David
....sorry for the double post :(
You have the .Net framework installed?
ok. That would be something obvious that I missed.
Being the amateur that I am in this topic, how can I get the .net framework?
Thanks.
David
I guess I should apologize in advance for my stupidity :)
Ok, I have the .NET framework installed, but the question now is (again, I apologize for my lack of knowledge):
do I install ent man on a webserver, or do I install it on the computer where .NET is installed?
Thanks.
