Hi Everyone I use Visual Studio 2008. When I want to upload my site I use the publish option. This takes about 30 minutes though as it uploads the MDF database file... All my connections on my site point to my DiscountASP server, so I don't really need any database files on my PC. The problem is though, when I delete the App_Data folder locally on my PC and publish, it deletes ALL files on my server and replaces with what's on my PC, which doesn't include database files... What other ways can I upload files to my server without using VS2008's publish..? Thanks Luke
I'd recommend you try out FileZilla: http://support.discountasp.net/KB/a311/configuring-filezilla-to-access-your-web-site.aspx This way you can update just what you want and upload it whenever you want.
Thanks Tam So would I just upload the site or do I have to go to publish site first in VS2008..? Cheers Luke
If you decide to choose Filezilla to upload your site, all you'll need to do is upload your site to our servers. This is just a different way of uploading your site onto the server instead of publishing through VS2008.
