Configuration :: Include IIS Settings From IIS Manager Breaks Deployment Package Build?
Jul 26, 2010Im trying to build a deployment package out of VS2010 against a web project and want to include all IIS settings as configured in IIS Manager. However when i enable this i get the following error message
Object of type 'manifest' and path
[code]...
Now this error makes very little sense as the specified application does exist in Default Web Site. I've checked the spelling. I've tried having ISV as a virtual directory and as an Application and tried with and without the ISV folder.
On the Web page i hae the Project URL set to [URL] On the Package/Publish tab IIS web site name is set to "Default Web Site/ISV/Web.Crm.Framework/"
Bing/Google search turn up very little on this and the documentation is not really detailed enough.
C# - Post Build Copy Config File To Another Project?
Feb 13, 2010I have a solution which contains a website and various class libraries. The exists on the file system like so:
C:Projects MyWebsitedevMyWebsite.sln
C:ProjectsCoreMyClassLibrary1.csproj
C:ProjectsCoreMyClassLibrary2.csproj
I want to move the App.config file from MyClassLibrary1 project to the bin of the MyClassLibrary2. I want to do this on post build in VS or MSBuild using relative paths if possible. This way anybody checking out the projects will not have to modify any paths if they choose to locate the project in a different location.
I have already tried the following approaches but to no avail.
copy /Y "$(ProjectDir)App.config"
$(ProjectDir).. MyClassLibrary2$(OutDir) MyClassLibrary2.dll.config"

If not, can someone provide documentation on how to properly deploy an ASP Web application? I have tried on my own, but I am apparently doing something incorrectly or incompletely, as I have several different problems with my current deployment. So I am looking to start over with the help of this add-in or by following more detailed documentation.

View 1 RepliesConfiguration :: Web Project One-Click Deployment And Creation Of IIS Virtual Directories?
Oct 28, 2010I have an ASP .NET web project; let's call it XYZZY. On my development machine I test and debug it using IIS. Under the IIS virtual directory for XYZZY, I have several "sub" virtual directories which I reference for downloading documents. Let's call them Doc1, Doc2, Doc3. These virtual directories reference a shared folder on another machine. Everything works great on the development machine.
Now I would like to publish the XYZZY web application to the production machine using One-click deploy. I have told it to include all IIS settings as configured in IIS manager. When I deploy XYZZY to the production machine, it properly creates the XYZZY application directory under c:inetpubwwwrootXYZZY and copies all files there and creates the XYZZY application in IIS. However, when it creates the sub virtual directories Doc1, Doc2, Doc3 under XYZZY in IIS, it doesn't use the shared folder I have them
set up as on the development machine, it points all 3 of them to c:inetpubwwwrootXYZZY.
I've examined the metaproperties in the archive.xml from the zipped deployment package, and it correctly has the IIsWebVirtualDir virtual directory folder Path settings correct from the dev machine, but for some reason they are overridden when the app is deployed.
I have found the instructions on customizing the deployment settings complicated and confusing. Surely this requirement for creating IIS virtual directories during web package deployment must be common. Can anyone explain clearly how to get the deployment package to create the IIS virtual directories with the proper targets on the target machine? Ideally, it would be nice to be able to set them to different values based on the configuration just as Web.config can be customized, but that's not a requirement just yet.

View 1 RepliesConfiguration :: Web Deployment Project 2008: Exclude Large Folder From Being Copied?
Mar 18, 2010I have a large folder (1.5 GB) in my ASP.NET Web Site, called Downloads, which contains media files, graphics, etc. No code that needs to be compiled or even deployed on every build.
I use Web Deployment Projects to compile and deploy. Every time I build the deployment project, the Downloads folder gets included and copied to the output location. This is taking a significant amount of time, because the folder is copied twice.
I've tried modifying the wdproj file like this:
<ItemGroup><ExcludeFromBuild
Include="$(SourceWebPhysicalPath)Download*"
/>
I've also tried not adding the * after the folder, but then I get a message that says the directory is not empty during the build process.
I've also tried this approach:
<ItemGroup>
<RemoveBeforeMerge Include="$(OutputPath)Downloads*" />
</ItemGroup>
And that still did not help. (also says: The directory is not empty.)What is the proper way to tell WDP not to consider a folder at all?

View 1 RepliesHow To Get Visual Studio 'Publish' Functionality To Include Files From Post Build Event
Jun 29, 2010I am currently attempting to use Visual Studio 2010 'Publish' and MSDeploy functionality to handle my web deployment needs but have run into a roadblock with regards to customizing the package depending on my build configuration.
I develop in a 32bit environment but need to create a release package for a 64bit environment, so in the 'Release' configuration I have a post build event that copies the 64bit version of a third-party dll into the bin directory overwriting the 32bit version. When I use the 'Publish' functionality, even though the correct 64bit dll is being copied to the bin directory, it doesn't get included in the package.
Is there a way to get the 'Publish' to include files that have been copied into the bin directory during a post build event?
Configuration :: Project Build On Web Server / Parse Error : Could Not Load Type 'Namespace.PageName'
Mar 17, 2010I have an ASP.NET 3.5 website application using C# and SQL 2005 running on a web server. Now the application has the ability to create new aspx pages with content and the relative aspx.cs and design.cs pages needed on the fly and store them in the base directory on the server. Think of it as a crued Visual Studio website on the server for admin to click a few options on a page then the new pages are created for them without the need of a web developer. This all works fine and the code is working 100% (for the moment).
My problem now is the following: When i now navigate to this newly created page i get the following error - Parse Error : Could not load type 'Namespace.PageName'
I've looked into the reasoning and microsoft say "These errors occur if the .aspx page contains a reference to a code-behind module and if the application has not been built." Which now makes sense the application does not realise that these new pages are part of its system even though i can navigate to them.How do i get the system to recognise these new pages and rebuild itself accordingly?Now i cannot rebuild the system localy then reupload to the server, this needs to be accomplished on the server by the system, because the site cannot afford to have down time everytime admin decide to add new pages.

How To Use Nant And MSBuild To Build Debug Deployment
Jun 17, 2010I have a Nant build script which referrences 30 other build scripts.
Each build script referrences a visual studio solution using MSBuild.
Each solution has 3 to 5 projects in.
Some projects are Class Librarys and some are Web Apllications.
The projects reference other projects both in their solution and out of their solution, so the projects do not use project references, they reference the the Release DLLs in the Bin folders of the other projects.
To use the software, I need to publish all the solutions together.
Which means I cannot do a deployment which is in debug mode.
Which means I cannot the step into and debug the code.
I would like to run the build script to get a deployment of the software which I can debug.
