Details

Besides the IIS configuration, there were two changes from the original demo
  1. The FobsUnlimited.csproj.webinfo file has a path in it that must match the location where you’ve unzipped it. The original version was in a demos-10-12 subdirectory. I’ve updated it to look like this. You could make this change manually if you want. 
    <VisualStudioUNCWeb>
    <Web URLPath = "http://localhost/FobsUnlimited/FobsUnlimited.csproj" />
</VisualStudioUNCWeb>
  2. I changed the fobs.sql file to automatically create the database login and grant the appropriate privileges. You may want to look at this for use in your project.
