[Zeroman]

Hello all,
I'm new for .NET. I try to deploy new application. When I do step by
step to deploy web. The Step Add project Output Group,It don't have
'PRIMARY output' to select but only has Content Files.

Does anyone has any idea to solve this problem. Or I did something
wrong,Pls suggest.

Thanks in advance.

I have not done installers in .NET 2.0 web apps, but I think this has to do
with the fact that ASP.NET 2.0 apps compile pages "on the fly". This is done
to allow any content to be updated individually and is the default setting.
I will have to check if someone else does not have a nugget of wisdom on
this one.

There is a precompile option, but, AFAIK, you would end up building your own
installer to use this option with an MSI. It precompiles EVERTYTHING into
the DLL and leaves pages only as pointer files. It is a matter of
precompile, xcopy files to server. It could be automated, of course.

Thanks for your answer. I tried to uninstall .NET Framework 2.0 and
re-install but it don't have any option to select. that is your point
or I did wrong.
