Today I was playing with WCF on the newly installed Windows Vista, but the Web projects don't seem to work. While trying to create a new WCF Service, I got the following error:
Unable to create the Web 'http://<>'. An error occurred accessing your Windows SharePoint Services site files. Authors - if authoring against a Web server, please contact the Webmaster for this server's Web site. WebMasters - please see the server's application event log for more details.
The Vista OS is kinda new to me and I am still learning it - it is definitely far away more secure and interactive. The UI is super sleek and overall the way you work with the OS is very different than any previous Windows OS. Probably the closest match is Windows 2003 Server. However, because I am Visual Studio developer myself, I am pretty glued to Visual 2005 Studio as my most used IDE. Now, it seems that there are some things that you should pay attention while developing on Windows Vista - check out the official page for Visual Studio support on Windows Vista for more details (link). Basically what can be infurred from there is that VS2002 and VS2003 will not be supported on Vista, but that again doesn't mean that your Microsoft .NET 1.x/2.0 apps won't work there - just the opposite. This restriction is all about development, not application compatibility. The bottom line is that you have to get the Visual Studio 2005 SP1 and the Vista Support update in order to develop on Vista.
