publishing vs 2005 web site takes 20 minutes

I have a very small web site built using vb 2005. One page uses a login
control and the other 2 pages use grid view, linked to my MS SQL database.

when i publish the site (I click Build / Publish web site, FTP), it takes
about 20 minutes to publish ! Also, visual studio is completely unresponsive
during this 20 minutes. Very fustrating!

I have tried checking and unchecking "Allow this precompiled site to be
updatable", but this makes no difference to the publish time.

Any ideas please, as this is driving me mad!

thanks

I used to have this problem with FrontPage when my hosting provider was
sluggish. Now I use webdrive (www.webdrive.com) which mounts the server as
a network drive, publish to local disk, and then update via the webdrive
link. In the past I've always used scripts to do this, based on Robocopy
(free as part of the Windows 2003 Resource Kit Tools), which is an
astonishingly powerful and flexible remote file synchronisation tool, but I
note the latest version of Webdrive has a simplified synchronisation
facility built in. Webdrive will retry up to 10 times, and reconnect if
necessary, so there is a degree of resilience built-in. The default number
of retries for Robocopy is 1,000,000!

It takes VS 2005 1, 2, and somtimes 3 MINUTES to compile ASP.NET 2.0 website when external DLL is modified. As a matter of fact, when I click 'Build', it looks like VS 2005 hangs for most of that time before it actually starts compiling. If I modify something inside WebSite project itself without modifying DLL, it takes few seconds to compile. Why? How can I control this behavior? I was able to reproduce this behavior by creating a...

I recently upgraded to from Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Visual Studio .NET 2005. In Visual Studio .NET 2003 when I would select 'Build' it would add a *.dll with the name of the Project to a /bin/ folder in the same directory as the source code. However, in Visual Studio .NET 2005 when I selected 'Publish Web Site' and selected a target location to place it in, it placed the following files in it: All *.aspx files All *.html files

Hello, all, I started out thinking my problems were elsewhere but as I have worked through this I have isolated my problem, currently, as a difference between MSDE and SQL Express 2005 (I'll just call it Express for simplicity). I have, to try to simplify things, put the exact same DB on two systems, one running MSDE and one running Express. Both have 2 Ghz processors (one Intel, one AMD), both have a decent amount of RAM (Intel system...

I developed my first web site using Visual studio 2005. It works very well with Visual Studio. But after I published the web site in a file system folder in my PC using the instructions I found in Visual studio help Walkthrough: Publishing a Web Site, I can navigate the web forms except the ones with connections (using Gridview, details view) to the database (SQL Server 2005). What didn't I do?

I've been using the VS2005 Publish utility on one of my projects for about six months. I have a large site with hundreds of files, thousands if you include the code behind files. So I thought I'd use the publish utility and pre-compile my site, but make it updateable. I thought I would be increasing the access time for each page. Here is what I've found. 1. If I publish a pre-compiled, updateable version of the site, it takes 50...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
