I installed this update today on my Windows XP SP2, and immediately could not fire up and debug any web apps in VS.NET 2003. As soon as I hit debug, it immediately pops up a message box that says something to the effect of Cannot debug this application. Then when I compiled and tried to browse to the .aspx page I got a 404. I could browse and go to a regular .html page in the same virtual directory.
Anyone else have this problem or know how to resolve it? I eventually uninstalled this Update and everything worked again, but I would like to understand what happenned in the first place.
Having the same issue on multiple boxes, both XP and 2000. One person here fixed it on their XP box by randomly fiddling w/ some IIS settings. We're still trying to nail down the exact fix. Would surely appreciate some help.
Under the root path in IIS configuration, check under "Home Directory" under the field "local path". "c:\inetpub\mywebsite\" is not the same as "c:\inetpub\mywebsite" apparently now. My site came back alive as soon as I removed the trailing backslash so that the path now says "c:\inetpub\mywebsite". Worked fine on my configuration.

I just wanted to say "Thank You" for taking the time to post this fix. I've been trying to figure this out on and off since Monday and might not have ever figured it out on my own. Everything went back to normal as soon as I removed the "\".
Thanks again, Robert

Where exactly can I find the root path? I right-clicked on my default web site, chose properties, and I don't have a trailing backslash on my local path. For the benefit of inexperienced IIS users, can someone post something a little more step-by-step.

Start->Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Internet Information Services.
Click the plus next to your server to expand it, expand web sites, right click on your website name, left click properties. Make sure that "Local Path" under the "Home Directory" tab does not have a trailing backslash. This is with IIS5, Server 2000. Not sure with II6, XP/2003.
