Overview of Deploying ASP.NET Applications

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1

When you are ready to deploy your ASP.NET Web application to a production server, you have many options. Your choice depends on the complexity of your application, whether it uses local-only or shared assemblies, and what tools you used to develop the application.

For ASP.NET applications that do not require modifications to IIS settings or registration of COM objects, you can simply copy the application's files to the directory structure on the production server, using one of the following tools:

  • The XCOPY command-line tool can copy files from one computer to another on an intranet or internal network.

  • Windows Explorer can copy files from one computer to another on an intranet or internal network.

  • You can use the FTP tool of your choice to copy application files from one computer to another over the Internet.

  • If your application has been developed using Visual Studio .NET, you can use the Copy Project command to copy files from one computer to another on an intranet or internal network. For more information, see Visual Studio .NET Help .

Note

Front Page Server Extensions must be installed on the target server to use the Copy Project command.

These choices have limitations, however. None performs any IIS configuration that your application might require, and if your application uses COM objects, they will not be registered on the target server. Also, if your application uses shared assemblies stored in the server's global assembly cache, you cannot use any of these methods. For more information, see Deploying Shared Components to the Global Assembly Cache and the "Global Assembly Cache" topic in .NET Framework Help.

Note

You should deploy components that are used only by your application to the \Bin directory.

If your application is complex -- for example, if it includes shared assemblies or relies on specific IIS settings -- deploying your application to production servers using Windows Installer 2.0 is recommended. For more information, see the "Deploying Applications and Components" topic in Visual Studio .NET Help.
