Hi,
After several full uninstalls / reinstalls of WebMatrix 3, I'm still unable to open a site that was previously able to be opened in WebMatrix. I also use Visual Studio Pro 2013 v 12.0.21005 to manage this site, however for my end users if they need to publish WebMatrix with publish settings to Azure works best. I'm running VmWare Fusion with Windows 8.1.
The website is an Umbraco 7 site, and previously I was able to open and publish it to Azure.
Steps to attempt to open site:
- Open WebMatrix,
- select Open Folder (As the site no longer appears in 'my sites', I deleted all sites from applicationhost.config in the IISExpress folder in Documents trying to resolve this issue)
- Select folder website is hosted in (It is a subfolder under the solution and project files, I'm guessing that shouldn't make a difference?)
- Receive "WebMatrix has stopped working.
In the event log I get the following errors:
.NET Runtime error:
Exception Info: System.NullReferenceException
