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:
[code]....
I have recently upgraded my .Net 3.5 solution containing some C# code projects and a ASP.net web site project to VS2010 (from VS2008). It is building and running fine inside VS, but I get some problems when trying to build it on my server with MSBuild 4.0 via TeamCity. It seems like the projects that are referenced from the web site are not built. This was all working fine before I upgraded to VS2010, MSbuild 4.0 and Windows SDK 7.1.
Inside the msbuild script that I use to build from teamcity I have defined project references for the web site like this:
[code]...
When I try to run the build script I get an error message saying that it could not find the dll file when trying to copy it from the bin folder of the referenced project into the bin folder of the web site. This is happening because the referenced projects are in fact never built at all (No bin folder exists in the project dir).
I am not very experienced with MSbuild, so I may have overlooked some important stuff. Is it not so that MSbuild will automatically try to build the referenced projects if no project output is existing?
Can I create an incremental deployment package using either Visual Studio 2010 Web Deployment Projects or Web Deploy (Web Deployment Tool) .
I need to automatically select changed files from a source and destination or a change set on TFS and build a deployment package only with the changed files.
I've seen some teams that start breaking into multiple projects from the beginning and others build behemoth single projects. The large project teams say that one massive project is easier to maintain than multiple smaller projects.
View 4 RepliesI have a VS2010 Web Application that uses the AjaxControlToolkit. I am able to build the Debug configuration. When I build the release configuration I get the following error message: Error 89 Could not load file or assembly 'file:///S:My CodeLibrariesACTMay 2010AjaxControlToolkit.dll' or one of its dependencies. Operation is not supported. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131515) S:My CodeEZFishingEZFishingEZFishingSGEN EZFishing
The location of the file is correct, and I just downloaded and unzipped there the Ajax CT. I have always built this app correctly before upgrading to VS2010 and ACT May 2010.
I have created setup and deployment projects. I have to design each screen like welcome screen, userscreen,install screen etc. I can see user interface to design that screens. I don't want like this way. I have doubt.Can i design that forms? If yes how to add ADD Dialog screen. How to attach that forms. Kindly let me know. Becoz all installation pages have to design our wish.
View 3 RepliesThis is getting me a little frustrated, and I looked around the net for the solution and was not able to find any as of yet.I'm trying to have Web Deployment projects in VS 2010. I have it installed for VS2008, but I was not able to find anything to install for VS 2010.I basically want to merge all outputs to a single assembly in 2010. How do I do that??
View 5 RepliesI have an asp.net control that contains a grid view sitting on top of an Ajax update panel. The control has been added to a sharepoint page. When a button is clicked, some server code is called to store the contents of the grid. If the server code throws an error, I want to spit out a javascript alert displaying the error message, but for some reason the error that bubbles up from the server is the generic 500 server error, which doesn't contain any details of the original error.
View 1 RepliesI installed VS2010 and proceded to convert my projects but the wizard failed. Insted I decided to recreate the whole solution with 5 projects from scratch, except that my Ajax 4.0 controls do not work. The projects are "Class" type and the final product is complied DLL that I'll be using some place else.
I am referencing the latest AjaxControlToolKit and in one of my projects where I'm building tab panel controls on the fly, where I'm adding "Controls" to the TP such as tpOverdue.Controls.Add(linkButton), the "Controls" throws an error:
'AjaxControlToolkit.TabPanel' does not contain a definition for 'Controls' and no extension method 'Controls' accepting a first argument of type 'AjaxControlToolkit.TabPanel' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Another error I get in a separate project (same solution) where I build the scriptmanager on the fly like this: ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, typeof(PeopleSearch), "UpdatePanelFixup", "_spOriginalFormAction = document.forms[0].action; _spSuppressFormOnSubmitWrapper=true;", true); - The error is: "The name 'ScriptManager' does not exist in the current context".
Interestingly, this solutiom resides on a 2003 server (developping on test server). I have similar solution on Vista using VS2010 where the difference is that instead of using class projects in my solution I use Web User Controls in my web solution and all works like a charm. I don't know if this is enough info for you guys to offer feedback, so if neccessary, I can post some code. Just let me know.
The Visual Studio 2005 web deployment project plugin used to be here:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/asp.net/Aa336619.aspx
This just goes to the ASP.NET home page now, and I've had no luck Googling (or ... Binging?) for it. Does anyone know if this is still available for download anywhere?
is it possible to make a single assembly for whole WebSite in Visual Studio 2010?
With Web Deployment Project i can do this in VS2008, but it is not compatible with new version.
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?
View 1 RepliesI had no problem with this in Visual Studio 2008 but it seems that VS 2010 is having an issue, and I'm betting it's probably me.I have a solution with an ASP.NET Web Site Project and a few C# projects (BLL, DAL, Tests in NUnit). I have configured the build process for the test project to automatically run NUnit to run the tests. I would like to ensure that the BLL and DAL projects build before the test project so that the tests will run against the latest compiled version (yes, I know I could do this all in one project, but I'm choosing not to -- please bear with me :) )
So, I set the dependencies of the Test project to include the BLL, DAL, and Web Application projects, and the build order shows BLL, DAL, Web Application, and then Tests. However, I noticed that the BLL doesn't actually build when I build the Test project.Any idea what this could be or any option I might be missing to force the other projects to build when I build the Test project?
I 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.
I have my code sitting on Bitbucket (it is a ASP.net web application). I want to put together a build machine that has a web-based dashboard. I go to the dashboard and I say: show me all the branches and stuff on my Bitbucket project. Now get the latest code from this branch for me and build it. Then deploy it to this location for me or maybe this other location. I want this dashboard give me a history of all this builds and deployments too. I am very new to this concept I have been reading about CC.net and MSBuild and other stuff but I can not find.
View 1 RepliesI have a web application that has some non-web projects as well. When using Web Deployment, a single assembly is generated for all the aspx.vb files. When using Team Build (TS 2008), a lot number App_Web_xxx.dll file(s) are generated instead of a single assembly. How can i solve this problem and change the TFSBuild.proj file so that it can generate a single Web Assembly instead of a lot number of assemblies.
I guess thats because the MERGE operation is not occurring like it used to happen for Web Deployment Project in my solution. How can i enable MERGE of App_web_*.dll files into a single Web.dll assembly file and delete the satellite assemblies? Here is my code from TFSBuild.proj file: (MY web project is in Release|.NET Config and all other projects within the solution are in Release|Any CPU)

<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|.NET' ">
<DebugSymbols>true</DebugSymbols>

my clients PC has framework 4.0 installed and my web app runs in IIS 7 configured to use framework 4.0.
but for some reason when i open the same app in VS2010 it says that the app is running in framework 2.0??
when i open the startup options and go to build, the dropdown for the framework does not have framework 4.0 as an option only goes up to 3.5?
I need to know how to add a post build event to a Web Deployment Project.
How can it be done?
I get error message "Unable to start debugging on the web server" in Visual Studio 2010. I clicked the button and followed the related suggestions without success.
This happens with a newly created local ASP.Net project when modified to use IIS instead of Cassini (which works for debugging). It prompts to set debug="true" in the web.config and then immediately pops up the error. Nothing shows up in the Event Viewer.
I am able to attach to w3wp to debug. It works but is not as convenient as F5.
I also have a similar problem with VS2008 on the same PC. Debugging used to work for both.
I have re-registered Framework 4 (aspnet_regiis -i). I ran the VS2010 repair (this is the RTM version). I am running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 box.
I do have Resharper V5 installed.
Im 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.
I have been using the RemotePost Class( as per http://www.jigar.net/articles/viewhtmlcontent78.aspx) to post a form to a pay provider, for about 3 months successfully, I made some changes external from the call to this class that sent an email when user presses the button to notify us that the user has selected to go through to the pay provider (similar to PayPal). and suddenly got an exception error MSCROLIB, Thread was being aborted. I have since removed the code and I still get the error it happens when I call
[Code]....
I tried the suggestion on KB article [URL]/ but the control is not past to the Pay Provider I also took the actual response that is written and posted it to a new html file added a submit button and it works. So I am no stuck. The Pay provider claims they have changed nothing, and has tried to help but says they are receiving no input from either our dev site or the live site.I also tried to step into the call but it just throughs the exception
I have created roles and users using ASP.NET configurations for login validations, it works fine if I run my application within project but when I publish my site and try to run from my Inetpub it giving this error. I tried all shorts of solutions posted in website but nothing worked for me.

I 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.
I don't understand how to use this feature called "Build deployment package" in VS 2010. I go to my properties and go to package/publish web and setup it up. I click "Create deployment package as zip"
I then build the deployment package and get a zip file.
When I look into and start drilling down in the folders I find I get a path like this
[Code]....
I don't understand why it makes all these folders and on top of it why is it my path to where my soultion sits. I don't like the fact that now everyone can look in the zip and see my accoutn name, where the file was sitting, that I am using subversion.
Then it makes it so confusing to when a error happens. I deployed it on my IIS windows 2008 server and ran it and I had a error show up. It pointed to the file where the error occured and the path was point to my desktop.For the longest time I could not understand why it was pointing to my windows 7 machine desktop when it was running on a windows 2008 server located in a different country.
It was not until I found out with the zip path it made sense. But that is confusing when it is pointing to paths that don't exist on that computer.
How can I change this?
