Hello,
I'm trying to publish a webapp to a server. The way we do this at my work is we publish it to a local folder on whatever computer we're working on and then upload the contents of that folder (except the web.config file) to the root folder on the server. This seems to work fine, so I'm trying to do the same on my home computer and my own server.
I`m working in Visual Studios Express 2012 for Web. My Server is Windows Server 2003 running IIS 6. It publishes in C:\inetpub\ and if I go to it seems to work fine. Then I upload to D:\Inetpub\public_websites\mm-theory\ There are two web.config files, one outside the DefaultAppPool folder that looks like this:
and another inside the DefaultAppPool folder that looks like this:
When I upload the latter, I have to change it to look like this:
If I go to and it tells me
I set the permissions on the folder to everyone and gave it maximum access, but that didn`t work. I have a legitimate username and password set into the website properties (under Directory Security).
If I go to it tells me:
mm-theory.Master does so exist.
I tried publishing directly to the server as well, but I didn't have much luck there either.
Please help.
