Hey guys, I'm in the process of creating a web service so far it works great on my comptuer when I run in on IIS but when I upload it to the company server I get this error when i try to run it.

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource 'ftp://...

<%@ WebService Language="vb"...>

any thoughts?

Do you have IIS installed and running on the server? You need to have the .NET Framework and everything set up on the server, just like on your local machine. I'm not sure where the "ftp://" part comes in.

(You just need the framework, not Visual Studio.)

.net 2.0 is installed on the server I also created a web site in vb 2005 and that is working on the server

can you tell us how you're calling the web service. do you have another application, or are you just trying to test it using the .asmx file directly? Is the .dll and bin directory on the web server? Did you configure the web service directory as an application in IIS?

You're going to need to give us a little more information before we'll be able to help figure this out.

Im just testing it using the .asmx file directly, all the files and directories are uploaded including the bin directory and I never configured any directories as applications on my machine or the server. Unfourtantly I only have FTP privileges on the company server but I can talk to the admin if I need too.

On your local machine, Visual Studio would have taken care of it for you. I'd suggest talking to the Admin to have them look at the IIS Settings for the Application with the Web Service.
