Loading The Tutorial Template
The first step in this tutorial is to setup the Personal Website Starter Kit. The best way to set it up is on your local hard drive. Later we can publish it to an internet web server.
Start the Visual Studio 2005 Development Environment.
This is a website project, so go to the menu File -> New Website. One of the Visual Studio installed templates is the Personal Web Site Starter Kit. Go ahad and select this option. Make sure the location is set to File System, the language to Visual C#. You might customize the file path box to the right of the Location drop down box. By default it will say "Website1" at the end of the path, but you miht want to change that to pick a different installation directory. I used this: PWSK_Tutorial or in full:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\my documents\visual studio 2005\WebSites?Create\[PersonalWebsiteStarterKit Tutorial]?Create
Click OK, and the template will be installed in the directory you selected.
Using Visual Source Safe
If you have an interest in learning how to use Visual Source Safe, now is an excellent time to learn how. Visual Source Safe can help you keep track of different versions of your project. If you should need to return to a previous version of your project, it makes it possible. It also serves another purpose if you are running the Development Studio within a virtual PC: It provides an easy way to move your files outside of the virtual PC session.
Here are the steps to setup Visual Source Safe, with a network shared directory to be shared by the host and Virtual PC:
- Create a private network connection between the host PC and the Virtual PC.
- Setup the Microsoft Loopback adapter on the host PC.
- If Virtual PC is running, shut down the virtual PC session
- Edit the settings for the virtual PC to attach one of the network adapters to
- Set a static IP on the host PC of something like 192.168.200.1. The third number, (the 200), can be anything that you want that is not being used by any other adapter. You can use ipconfig at a dos prompt to see what the addresses are that are assigned to all of your networ adapters.
- Start Virtual
- Set a static IP on the network adapter in the Virtual PC
- Install Visual Source Safe in the Virtual PC
- Install Visual Source Safe on the host PC
- Setup a new user on the host PC with a password. Name this user something like VSS_USER
- Setup a directory on the host PC to store the Visual Source Safe database
- Right click this directory, and setup the sharing permissions: Give the directory a share name like VSS. Remove the everyone user, and add the VSS_USER with full control.
