Publish web site doesn't copy files

I've used Publish Web Site before on other projects (C#) with no problems.
New project, converted from earlier version of ASP.Net to 2.0 (VB.Net). When
I do a Build --Publish Web Site to a local folder, it gives the normal
building messages, then it deletes existing files, and stops with the message
"publish succeeded" but nothing is actually published and no errors are
displayed. Any ideas? Am I missing something? Is there a difference
between C# projects and VB projects when publishing? I even tried using the
command line to publish, and that didn't work either. Thanks!

I don't know, but I find the Publish Web Site feature very lacking and weak. I mean, why does the damn thing have to delete unrelated directories like /images /documents etc. This is so impractical, what if my users generate these documents or images through their interaction with the site, and then I change some code and publish it, boom, everything is gone. I cannot put these folders outside the solution due to security/pathing...

Hi all, I am no longer able to publish a web site project using Visual Studio 2005 Professional. I am publishing it to an FTP url, and this used to work just fine. I enter the username and password and select "passive mode" when publishing the site, like I have always done. Visual Studio deletes the existing files, but then doesn't write the new ones, though it tells me the operation was

When would I use "Copy Web site" over "Publish Website" or visa versa? Why would I use the Web Deployment Project vs these options? I want to make sure no one can pull up/read/download my vb source code (in ..vb files). I would prefer easy update of the site (code or aspx.) Thanks.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
