Deploying a web application

I have created a web application that uses a custom control and a web
service on my local system. I have gotten all of the bugs worked out on my
local system and now it is time to move it to the sever. I have tried
copying all of the files and folders within my application folder. I have
even tried building a web setup and installing it on the server. The problem
that I am having is that my web service is still looking for the web service
files from the web services folder on my local system. How do I get it to
point to the production sever where I already have the service installed?
 
Hi,

When the web reference is created, there are couple of
settings,

1) Static
2) Dynamic

Static as the name suggests that the web service is
always hosted on same system like Microsoft.com,
Dyanamic, is more what your situation warrants, it
changes when you change your server like from your
localhost to your production server.

So change the web reference properties to Dynamic and
when you build the solution it automatically creates the
configuration file which will have a entry in the
appsettings to point to the specific web service. Thus,
this setting can be changed at any time...

Hope this helps...

Regards,
Prashant
 
That sounded like a great idea so I tried it. However, that didnot work. I
am getting the same error. Here is the error that I am receiving: The lines
that say \\FDFSYS02\\blahblahblah is what is registered as localhost.

Server Error in '/EmpRemoval' Application.

hi,

Possibly there is another solution, but.
First of all. Copy the compiled libraries (.dll) in a folder called "bin" in
the root of your website. The pages could be in any directory.
Second, open the web application with VS.NET the add a reference to the web
service published in the "real" website. Compile the application, the n publish
the .dll in the \bin directory of your website, then copy the .aspx in any
directory.

It is important to know that the \bin directory is a directory in the root of
the webserver no "inside" a folder.

Ok, I have done that but I get the same error. In fact, when I finished
creating the web service, I compiled it and installed it on the server. I
then re-referenced the web service at it's new home once everything else was
complete.

I have noticed that in the properties of the webservice, the URL points to
localhost. This is a field that is uneditable. Is there a way I can behind
the protection and change it.

hi,

Open the web application (without the web service project)
In the web application, remove all the references to the web service then add a
Web Reference no a "simple" reference that point to the web service you have in
the website.
Compile, publish and... hope you can say: BINGO! ;-)

Hi,

Couple of things,

1) While adding the web reference what is the path which
you have given...

2) Did it generate the config file when you gave the web
reference as dynamic and what is the appsettings in the
generated config file.

2) Yes it did generate the appsettings key and it reads:

</appSettings>

3) I did notice that the URL for the web reference is pointing to localhost,

I am not really understanding what you are saying here. You want me to
remove the web reference from the web application, then add the web
reference back in as a "simple" reference? How do you do that?

hi,

Open the web application (without the web service project)
In the web application, remove all the references to the web service then
add a
Web Reference no a "simple" reference that point to the web service you have
in
the website.
Compile, publish and... hope you can say: BINGO! ;-)

No, as you know yo can have the web service project and the web application as
a solution, and the reference to the web srevice can be done as a "normal"
reference.

What you must to be sure is to have in the web app is a Web reference to the
web service published in the "real" web site.

sorry for my English... I try to explain it the best way I can...

Hi,

you should be able to change the url in a couple of ways,
1) either in VS.NET, which basically involves building
your solution again...
2) Best way is to change the URL in the config file which
is generated for you.

Prashant
