Are all the dll's in my Website - Property Pages - References tab copied into an .msi istaller by default for a Website project type? The references don't seem to have any options as they would in a web app or desktop app project type (such as Copy Local, etc). My installer includes the Content Files from my website project, and any class libraries I have referenced as projects in my solution are all showing up in the Output list. But, any system or 3rd party dll's that I have manually added as references do not show up in this list. Will they be compiled into the installer?

A:
You can add a Web Setup deployment project. That will check dependencies and you can choose to add them to the .MSI installer.
edit This is on a MVC project by the way. I must say i'm not sure if that's the case with Website projects, I often deployed those using XCopy
