What is the best way to deploy a web application?

Hi,
Do you know what is the best way to deploy a asp.net web
application? XCOPY, Using the copy project option in VS.NET or
deployment using VS.NET installer? Any concerns, issuese for different
deployment method? Any points that I need pay attention to?

Thanks in advanced,
Di

Just a XCopy works.
But you must ensure the following:
- Proper application creation
- Due authentication management at IIS level
- File permissions (if on NTFS)

Considering all this, using a MSI installer is one of the best options
that I've seen. Try using InstallShield

Hi there, What's a great tool to use to deploy n-tier web-based apps? I'm thinking in terms of an installer that produces a package that a client can run that will set up one or more IIS sites, copy files to an NTFS partition and set permissions, create an application and install COM objects in Component Services, attach (or script the creation and population of) a SQL Server 2000 database, etc. I'm currently using ASP, IIS 5.0, SQL...

Hi fellows, I have two simple questions regarding the Framework's deploy and the Setup and Deploy Projects: 1. As I've read in another posts and newsgroups (and as I can imagine), VS.NET IDE isn't capable of create a setup and deploy project and, in a elegant way, during the setup process, detect the absence of the Framework. In this case, I'd like to run the Dotnetredist.exe file, first, and the

Hello, I have an application that I have been deploying with the Office 2002 / XP Developers Edition Package and Deployment wizard. The package that it creates is 180 MB in size. I would like to use a third party packaging / setup script instead to reduce the size of the package. I spoke with someone in passing once that said he was able to reduce his package to about a third of it's size by using another program to package it, but I...

Hello, Newbie here, so please forgive what is probably a basic question ... I see a lot of discussion about "code behind", which if I have understood correctly, means that the script code goes in a separate file from the HTML. Apart from the obvious advantage if you have a separate designer and programmer, are there any other advantages to code behind? Most of the stuff I've seen so far uses code inside, but that's probably

I would like to be able to move my ASP.NET applications to any of a number of servers without changing code. My apps do a lot of disk I/O and in some cases I might be specifying absoute drive mappings for whatever bad reason. This will break if apps are arbitrarily copied around. I imagine I could centralize a bunch of configurations in web.config. If my apps could reliably (and efficiently) identify what server they were running off...

Hi, I posted this in wrong group, so just re-post here. There are two ways to create web-based application or web service, from VS start page, click on File and New, two options you can choose, one is Projects which leads you to create ASP.NET Web Application or ASP.NET Web Service Application. Another one is Web Site which leads you to create ASP.NET Web Site or ASP.NET Web Service. My question is what is the difference between these...

In a thread about wrapping .Net applications using Thinstall and Xenocode, it was pointed out that there may be better programming languages/IDEs to use for the purpose of creating standalone, single executable apps.

I would like to use a drag and drop UI development...

Here is my problem. I have an app that has over 9 web services. For years I had not issues with clickonce but now it looks like the build is missing XmlSerializers.dll.deploy. I did have this issue once in vs 2005 and one the problem just went away. Well now its back. If I build the app 20 times it may work once. I did find that if I remove this as a required dll that I can get my program to run. I can't seem to find any info about...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
