Hello,
Technology: C# ASP.NET WebForms VS2010
I have been trying to create sub web applications that build into a main web application i.e. build path is the main web application as described here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdevtools/archive/2006/07/01/652986.aspx
The aim is that I can separate all my website 'apps' separate web applications e.g. website = main web application, blog = sub application, cms = sub appliction etc...
All works fine locally - superbly in fact. Locally the IIS website looks at the folder where my code is stored and the sub applications are visible in the main web application folder because that is where they are built into. But these folders seems to be 'excluded'.
So the problem: When I deploy this application local (using WebDeploy) to another IIS website (locally), these sub project build folders are not deployed (they are excluded so I didn't think they would be - but I need them to be deployed AS WELL).
Also - the sub web applications do not become applications in IIS, they are simply sub directories of the main applications so it all acts a single application.
Any help on how to make this work would be super duper. I can't believe how difficult this is - I can't be the only one!
