Copy Web feature in VS2005 fails...
-
(I posted this to Web Dev last week, but got no bites so now I'm posting here because it has more traffic. Technically, this is not a programming question, so I hope I'm safe...) I'm new to VS 2005 and am trying to play with installing a new website on my server. So, I got the TimeTracker starter kit, built it and then used Copy Web Site... to move the project to my server. I connected ok (New Web Site...) then selected everything in the source window and clicked the right-arrow button. After churning away, I got a dialog saying the following:
--------------------------- Copy Web Completed --------------------------- There were errors during copy web. Please view log for details. --------------------------- OK ---------------------------I checked the contents of the website folder and found that the TimeTracker.mdf file had not been copied. So, (finally!) here are my questions: 1) Where is this log I'm supposed to view for details? and 2) Any guesses as to why the .mdf file won't copy? TIA! :-D 'til next we type...

It might be in use by the sql server. Try shutting down sql express and then copy the web

Try searching your machine for newly-created files.

You should have "View Log" button on the "Copy Website" page near the right side bottom of the page. Kind of missed that one myself when I first started with VS2005 beta. Rocky <>< Latest Post: SQL2005 Server Managemnet Studio timeouts! Blog: www.RockyMoore.com/TheCoder/[^]

Huh? I think you're suggesting I should have posted this in a different forum. If that's what you meant, you should read my original post where I said that I had posted it in WebDev but got no responses. 'til next we type... HAVE FUN!! -- Jesse

I found it! Thanks, Rocky. Now I have more questions... The log says the following:
Copy from 'C:\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\TimeTracker1\App_Data' to 'http://_my internal website_' started at 1/26/2006 10:07:41 AM. App_Data Copy file TimeTracker.mdf from source to remote Web site. Has error -- Unable to add 'App_Data/TimeTracker.mdf' to the Web. Service Unavailable Copy from 'C:\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\TimeTracker1\App_Data' to 'http://_my internal website_/TimeTracker/App_Data' is finished. Completed at 1/26/2006 10:08:12 AM.Anyone have a guess at what Service might be unavailable? Do I need to enable something in IIS to get this to work? (Everything else copied just fine.) TIA!
