What is required to deploy an ASP.NET 2.0 web site to production?

Can someone please let me know what's required to deploy an ASP.NET 2.0 site
to a production server? I'm not referring to "Copy Web Site" or how to move
the files over, but rather asking about what supporting framework/technology
needs to be installed on the production server.

For instance, I currently have a production web server running IIS 6 on
Win2K3 with old ASP all set up. On my dev box I've been building a new site
with ASP.NET 2.0 beta 2 which is finished. I am waiting for the release
version of VS.NET 2005 and the go live license for it. Once that is
available, what is required for me to install on the production web server
to run the work I've done in my dev box?

It seems like from what I've gathered, all you need to do is install the
..NET framework 2.0 redistributable on a production server. Is that it? So
you just install the .NET framework 2.0, and then copy over your asp.net 2.0
applicaito including web config, bin dir and all .aspx and .aspx.cs files
and then it will run without anything else?

Also I see there is a .NET 2.0 framework beta 2 redistributable . But is
there such as thing for the .NET 2.0 Release Candidate? And if so where can
MSDN subscribers get this? I could not find it. Likewise will MS make the
final release version of the .NET 2.0 framework redistribution available in
conjunction with VS.NET 2005 release on Nov 7?

Thank you!

Yes, that all you need in place to run .net and ASP.NET applications.

I don't believe there is a seperate download for the CTP versions, you
can find the redistributable for the RC version in the Program
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
8\SDK\v2.0\Boot Strapper\Packag es\dotnetfx directory. I'm sure the RTM
version will be available on the MS download site at the time the
product goes to RTM.

Hello, I was just looking at aspnet_compiler.exe and thinking how useful it was to have your web site compiled, then I thought that maybe it isn't!! What's the advantage? I would never upload a site, nor even upload a new version of one file, without immediately testing it a browser. Thus, any first-time compilation delay will be seen by me. Did I miss something? TIA

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,...
