Create release for VS2005

Question

User39841677 posted

Hi, guys! I'm trying to create a release of a project in VS 2005. Altough it creates setup.exe and *.msi files, it doesn't create the bin files needed to put it into production. Besides, as far as I knew, when creating a release, VS 2005 should not start running the project, should it?

Please give a hint, I'm complete lost [*-)] couldn't be clueless... [:$]

Is there a configuration issue or something I need to set up or something like that?

 Any help will be highly appreciated [:D]

Hi alextirado,

If there is no .dll file in the bin folder, you should first check the Web Setup project. Have you added the .dll files in the “Web Application Folder\bin” folder?

I recommend you use Web Deployment Project and then create Web Setup project. For detailed information, please refer to the link below:
