I just upgraded from VS2008 to VS2010, and now my web deployment project keeps rebuilding constantly. Even if I have a WinForms application set as the startup project and hit Ctrl+F5 to run it, the web deployment project rebuilds every time I hit Ctrl+F5. It didn't do this in VS2008. Does anyone know what's causing this?
i have a project which runs fine when I build it and run it. But when I add an web deployment project to the same, it throws out a "server block is not well formed" error in Default.aspx page
through googling i found out that it may have something to do with page/server directives. but i cant figue out what is wrong with this code.
When I upgraded my Web Deployment Project from VS2008 to the VS2010 beta version, I was able to execute the build locally on my development box. However, when I tried to execute the build on our TeamCity build server, I began getting the following exception:
In context of an ASP.NET Website project, is it possible to create a second location where DLLs will be picked up from, in addition to the regular bin/ location and apart from the GAC? I expect such a feature would be made possible by the configuration.
I've got an existing asp.net project written in vb.net need to merge into C# ASP.NET MVC 1.0 application. I couldn't find a good article on this. I have successfully created a sample project and merge it. It works successfully. But when merge it into myreal project it does not work. I've used C#.csproj project file and deleted VB project file. for the merging i could find a good article this link successful on sample project not with the real project.
I want to implemet mail merge with my on going project, I know well how send news letters to authorized clients, but need to do it with mail merge like the email from this forum.
I'd like to create a class library project where embed resources like js, css and maybe image files. I would compile it and copy the dll into the bin folder of my web site to include the resources into my pages with GetWebResourceUrl.
I tried with an assembly that have no .cs files, but it doesn't seem to work, I can't see the namespace of the assembly in the web project.
I need to deploy 3 projects using one single installer. The first project is a web project the second and third project are windows services.I need to use the .Net Deployment project to deploy all the project is a single installer. I have managed to create a installer and a custom action which gets the primary output of the both windows service but I am having problems installing the Web application.
If I create an output for the web application it gets installed in the application's folder and not on IIS folder and its not set as an application.
I built the solution once in release mode and it created all the necessary files in the release folder. I then deleted all the contents of the release folder. Now when I buid it for the second time, the release folder is empty. The dll is in the debug folder.
I would like to include a word document, and unused program files in a folder as part of my project, but I don't want it compiled, etc. How is the best way to do this?
I need to obfuscate a dll that is used in a ASP.NET project, the deployment project pruduces a setup.exe which I want to distribute. I have the VS 2008 Dotfuscator installed but when I build the deployment project the project that creates the dll is rebuilt before it is added to the deployment project and added to the setup.exe.
My web application functions as expected when using non-compiled web pages. When I used a Web Deployment Project to build my solution (creating a separate assembly for each page and control output), the web application does not function (e.g.: pushing a button does not result in any action).
I am trying to deploy an ASP.NET 3.5 Web Application to my production server and I am using the Web Deployment Project for this purpose. I have a folder named MasterPages in the root of the application which contains all the master page files. When I build this project in the release mode and deploy it on to the server I am getting the below error message:
Directory 'C:inetpubwwwrootMasterPages' does not exist. Failed to start monitoring file changes.
I am using ASP.NET AJAX and the ToolkitScriptManager is on the master pages. I have noticed that the MasterPages folder is missing from the release build.
I'm looking at an asp.net application, i notice that there are assemblies defined into two places. In web.config there is configuration/system.web/compilation/assemblies/add elements. In the project file there are references setup under the Project/ItemGroup/Reference elements.
I was wondering, what is the difference between assemblies/references added in either location?
Have been searching for a while but am having no luck fixing this. I am running VS 2010 on a Win XP machine. My agency's developer converted our web app with no problem, and i can open it and compile the code in VS 2010. I am trying to run my wdproj to build the site to a local directory, and it will not. I get an output error:
Error 2 Unrecognized attribute 'targetFramework'. Note that attribute names are case-sensitive. C:Ronweb_sitesTESTDEVpctweb.config 76 1 pct.deploy
I have a project which involves a database (sql server 2008 express) class library, webservice and a website which I want to deploy on a windows server 2003 with IIS 6. I look ed on the web and how to do this for the website mostly but unfortunately not that much for the webservice, classlibrary and database.
According to this website, I can go to Visual Studio 2005 Web Deployment Projects, and download the add-in, but I am not finding what I need. I have searched other sites for the add-in as well, but with no luck. where I can download the add-in?
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.
Is there a difference between the Web Setup Project in VS2008 and the Web Deployment Project that I keep reading about on this site? More importantly, how much of a help is the deployment project over just using the setup project?
Now i want to deploy that application without any interaction of IIS. I want to make setup of my project so that i can directly install it in client's pc. I have tried many ways of doing this. I have tried Xcopy method and even tried of adding web setup project.
I have several ASP.NET web projects and their Output folder are set to "C:Builds[ProjectName]bin" (instead of the default "bin" folder). This makes "F5" Debugging not working because the ASP.NET Development Server expects the "bin" folder under the project folder.
I then changed to use Local IIS Web server (http://localhost/webproject1") and manually updated the vdir physical path to my custom output path. However the VS2010 will not load the csproj because it detects the url is already mapped to a different folder location.
I know I probably shouldn't change the Output folder. But wondering if there is an easy way to workaround this? The goal is to make "F5" debugging work with custom build Output folders.
I'm about to begin a new asp.net application using .net 4.0. Only concern I have is since the project calls for reporting, I cannot use SSRS with SQL Server 2008 b/c the tempate for Bus Intelligence Projects is missing from 4.0. I've been told that the next release of SQL Server 2011 (some time this year), will resolve this problem. Meanwhile, I'm wondering if the following approach would work:
1) Create the application in VS2010 using the SQL Server 2008 db.
2) Create the SSRS Bus Intelligence project using VS2008 and create a seperate website pointing to the same SQL Server 2008 Db?
Kind of a hack, but I guess the only problem with this is, the Bus Intelligence project will not be able to reference and leverage and DLL or code from the application.
