I just installed VS 2013, and I cannot find an option to use IIS express when I right click on the website project name. Did this option get moved?

Without this option when I open an existing website, and run, I get 403.14 Forbidden error saying

HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden

The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.

I'm new to visual studio 2013, would appreciate any help you can provide...

Open the Project Properties, and go to the Web tab. In the Servers section you should see a dropdown with three options: Local IIS, IIS Express, and External Host.

See Web Servers in Visual Studio for ASP.NET Web Projects for more information.

  • This may not fix your 403 error, which is another issue. – rcabr Sep 19 '14 at 17:00
  • ok, I'm in the property window, I don't see web tab, I only see website properties (I also see property page), and I don't see such option. The list of properties are "Always Start When Debugging", "Anonymous Authentication", "Manage Pipeline Mode", "SSL Enabled", "Windows Authentication". – user2669043 Sep 19 '14 at 17:53
  • What kind of web project is this? For example, is it ASP.NET MVC? – rcabr Sep 19 '14 at 19:11
  • Just a regular small ASP.Net project – user2669043 Sep 19 '14 at 19:57
