Hello
I created a asp.net site in VS2008 with AJAX. To the same solution i added another silverlight 2 beta 2 project which contains some animation.
Now in asp.net page, i placed silverlight control and i choose source as .xap file from the silverlight project.
Now when i run that asp.net page, error says.
Sys.invalidoperationexception....Could not download silverlight application. Check web server settings.
How can i run silverlight xap file in asp.net page smoothly? That silverlight project runs fine seperately with a readymade test page
Thanks

To register MIME
go to IIS and open your virtual folder in Default web site.
right click and go to properties. go to HTTP Headers tab
go to MIME TYPES and click it.
in the box. click new and add .xap as extension and application/x-silverlight-app as mime type
Done
