Deploy Web App

[Paul Smith]

I am trying to deploy a web app in VB.Net. Following the MSDN 'Walkthrough:
Deploying a Web Solution':

--
To add the output of the WebApp1 project to the deployment project

In the File System Editor, select the Web Application folder. On the Action
menu, point to Add, and then choose Project Output.
--

I don't have a 'Web Application' folder, only 'Application Folder', 'User's
Desktop', and 'User's Programs Menu'. This means that I can't specify a
Virtual Directory or DefaultDocument.

Any ideas why this could be?

The problem is your setup project is the "Setup Project" used for
Windows Applications. You need the "Web Setup Project". If you created your
project by using the "Setup Wizard", then on one of the screens you need to
specify that you are deploying a web application. If you are not using the
wizard, then you need to add a new project that is the "Web Setup Project".
This will contain the Web Application Folder. If this helps you, then please
click on the "Yes" button just above or below this message where the question
asks "Was this post helpful to you?". Thanks and I hope this helps!
