Publishing a Project to a Windows 2008 Web Server

I am working with a Visual Studio 2008 (C #) project on Windows XP Pro. I am trying to publish this application using the Publish Web wizard on a remote server that is Windows Web Server 2008.

But the posting fails every time with the following error:

 Connecting to http: //XX.XXX.XXX.XX / ...
 Unable to create the Web site
 'http: //XX.XXX.XXX.XX/'. The web
 server does not appear to have
 FrontPage Server Extensions installed.
 ========== Build: 1 succeeded or up-to-date, 0 failed, 0 skipped
 ========== 
 ========== Publish: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========

I used these links:

I installed the FrontPage Server Extensions from the links above without issue on the remote server.

And extend the Virtual Server ("Default Website").

However, the problem remains. I cannot find a solution to this problem.

ok the problem is solved.



it was a user authorization problem. I have set the user as administrator for the remote server.

I have had more problems publishing http. I worked around this by creating an ftp directory that maps to the web application directory and uses the ftp address of the master.
