Publish Web Site Oddity

When I go to publish my web site with Visual Studio 2005, it would
delete the destination files then claim the entire process was
successful. When I check to see if all the files and folders were
copied over, a majority of them are missing. Any clue why this would
occur?

"Publish" does not copy "all the files" - it deploys only the files needed to
run the Web Application. Also, depending on which Application configuration
you are using, "Web site" or "Web Application Project" (separate add-in)
there are additional radio buttons you can check / uncheck that control what
and what type gets copied to the target location.

All the necessary files for my website are not getting copied over.
The project was created as a "Web site" and not a "Web Application".

Are the files you expect to be "published" actually in the project? Because
when I use the publish option with a "Web Site" project, EVERYTHING gets
copied to the new location - even a SQL Server script that is in there as a
Solution Item.

Yes, since they are mainly aspx files. This only occurs when I publish
my website over a VPN. Sometimes it will copy everything like expected
while other times it just does a couple files on the root of the
website. Are you aware of any publish logs being created when you
start the process?
