ASP.NET Web Pages - Publishing the Website

Learn how to publish a Web Pages application without using WebMatrix.




Publish Your Application Without Using WebMatrix



An ASP.NET Web Pages application can be published to a remote server by using
the Publish commands in WebMatrix (or Visual Studio).



This function copies all your application files, cshtml pages, images, and all the
required DLL files
for Web Pages, for Razor, for Helpers, and for SQL Server Compact (if a database is
used).



Sometimes you don't want to use this option. Maybe your hosting provider only
supports FTP? Maybe you already have a web site based on classic ASP? Maybe you
want to copy the files yourself? Maybe you want to use Front Page, Expression
Web, or some other publishing software?



Will you get a problem? Yes, you will. But you can solve it.



To perform a web copy, you have to know how to include the right files, what DDL
files to copy, and where store them.



Follow these steps:




1.
Use the Latest Version of ASP.NET


Before you continue, make sure your hosting computer runs the latest version
of ASP.NET (4.0 or 4.5).




2.
Copy the Web Folders


Copy your website (all folders and content) from your development computer to
an application folder on your remote hosting computer (server).



If your application contains data, don't copy the data
(see point 4 below).






3.
The DLL Files


Make sure the bin folder, on your remote hosting computer, contains the same dll files as on your development computer.


After copying the bin folder, it should contain files like this:


Microsoft.Web.Infrastructure.dll
NuGet.Core.dll
System.Web.Helpers.dll
System.Web.Razor.dll
System.Web.WebPages.Administration.dll
System.Web.WebPages.Deployment.dll
System.Web.WebPages.dll
System.Web.WebPages.Razor.dll
WebMatrix.Data.dll
WebMatrix.WebData



4. Copy Your Data


If your application contains data or a database. For instance an SQL Server Compact database (a .sdf file in App_Data
folder), consider the following:


Do you want to publish your test data to the
remote server?


Most likely not.


If you have test data on your development computer, it may overwrite production data on your remote hosting computer.


If you have to copy an SQL database (.sdf file), perhaps you should delete
everything in the database, and then copy the empty .sdf file from your development
computer to the server.


THAT'S IT. GOOD LUCK !

Function to Return a JSON Like Objects Using VBA Collections and Arrays

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP .everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0; up vote 1 down vote favorite My goal is to create a compact function that can create a JSON Like object from JSON string. I want a function with a small footprint that I or anyone who wants to use it, can simply paste into a module and use. At 61 lines of code, I am happy with its size and portability. Here is an image of JSON Object created from string data using a ScriptControl . Although the Locals Window displays the properties and values correctly, the object itself is extremely difficult to work with. This image shows an object created using getJSONCollection . Because it is made of VBA Collections and Arrays, it is very easy to work with. Option Explicit Private Function getJSONCollection(ByVal Value As Variant, Optional ScriptEngine As Object) As Variant Const DELIMITER As String = "||" Dim col As Collection, JSON As Object, KeyNam

Will my employers contract hold up in court?

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 8 down vote favorite 2 When I started a new job back in July of 2017, I signed a contract that had the following bindings or restrictions if I was ever to leave the company: Cannot work for a competitor within 25 miles of current companies location for the next two years Cannot offer my services to any organization within 25 miles of current companies location for the next two years Now, when mentioned “my services” this can be related to my profession of website design. This contract seems incredibly binding, 2 years in length, and I’m looking to see if it would actually hold up in an Arizona court. contract employment non-compete arizona share | improve this question edited Aug 7 at 15:35 feetwet ♦ 13.8k 9 37 85 asked Aug 6 at 19:05 Alex S. 46 2 What does your company do and what services do they provide?
