Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 error message :

The project file 'C:\data\projects\misc.Web.csproj' cannot be opened.

The project type is not supported by this installation.

...turns out i needed to installed the web application project type.

after updating to service pack 1 and downloading the installer, i had to restart the installer a bunch of time -each time it updated/installed another component.

this was a little confusing since the installer kept closing after each stage, so i thought it was done --each time! it was just installing prerequisites till the last round.

last time through it actually reported being done etc.
