VS 2008 deployment problems

[fredziff]

I am using the article "How do I deploy a Visual Studio 2008/2005 or Visual Web Developer 2008/2005 web project from my local computer to the DiscountASP.NET servers?"

I am using the same username and password I use to log into the control panel, but I get a password error everytime I try to login to the ftp server. What am I doing wrong?

www.kidtracks.org
Port: 21
Directory: blank
Passive mode: checked
I tried with Passive mode uschecked with the same results.


•Open the web project to be deployed in Visual Studio 2008/2005.
•Go to web site -> Copy Web Site. The Copy Web tab will show the Source Web site and the Remote Web site.
•Click the "Connect" button. The "Open Web Site" window will pop up.
•Select FTP Site.
•Enter the following values:
◦Server: www.YourHostedDomainName.com
◦Port: 21
◦Directory: [name of the remote directory to copy to; leave blank for the root]
◦Passive Mode: checked*
◦Anonymous Login: unchecked, and enter your login information
* Note that passive mode may not be compatible with some home network routers or modems. If you have difficulty connecting, try switching passive mode off.
•Click "Open."

Never mind. I didn't use the full username listed for the FTP Username. The account number in front of my username had to be added. Thanks

Glad to hear you fixed the problem, sorry we didn't get to this posting sooner.

For future reference, there is a new feature in the control panel that allows you to download your publish settings as a file and inputs all your publishing information in your development software. You can find this at the bottom of your account/info (https://my.discountasp.net/account-info.aspx) page of your control panel.
