What could cause "Connection Interrupted" on LocalHost when debugging in ASP.NET
asp.net, c#, localhost
Solution
When you launch the application, a little info mark appears at the right bottom of your screen telling you that the local web server was started and on wich port. You should compare that port to the one that appears in your browser. If they are different, an anti-virus could be responsible for that problem. Another place to look is your host file. Some software tweak this file and can make your localhost disbehave.
Problem
I'm trying to run a freshly created ASP.NET Website using C#, however when I do so it launches FireFox and attempts to connect to http://localhost:1295/WebSite1/Default.aspx (for example), but after about 10-15 seconds it displays a "Connection Interrupted - The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." Error. This issue is also present with older ASP.NET C# pages/Web Services I've built in the past, nothing is actually running off the ASP.NET Development server. I am using: Windows XP Pro SP2, Visual Studio 2008 For reference I have SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition installed as well. I have tried: - Browsing it with IE instead of Mozilla - Trying 2.0 framework instead of 3.5 - Reinstalling Visual Studio 2008 This problem seems so trivial the more I think about it, but I havn't been able to work it out just yet! Appreciate any help on the matter.
