Problem:

Release 5.0:

Can't create ASP .NET Web App after installing Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1.

Resolution:

Installed Net Express 5.0 with .NET support and have then installed Visual Studio Service Pack 1, and unable to create a new web site/service via the COBOL language.

It seems that the Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 installation appears to remove some registry entries which register COBOL with the web project system. Other than the uninstall/reinstall approach (via Windows Add/Remove Programs/Change/Modify option), there is a way to get these entries back by running the following command from the Micro Focus\\Net Express 5.0\\packages directory:

regsvr32 cblprj.dll
