  1. Deployment Moving an ASP.NET application from the development environment to the production environment Deployment

  2. Development environment vs. Production environment Development environment Production environment Runs many (potentially thousand) user sessions simultaneously Microsoft IIS Full-fledged web server Port 80 Accessible world wide • Runs a single (or few) user sessions simultaneously • Visual Studio comes with a built-in web server • Random port number • Accessible from local host, only Deployment

  3. Avoiding hardcoded settings • Settings should not be in the pages • Example: Company name, email address, etc. • Settings should be declared in web.config <appSettings> <add key="CompanyName" value="Roskilde Used Cars"/> <add key="MaintainedBy" value="andersb@rhs.dk" /> </appSettings> • Used like <asp:Literal ID="Literal1" runat="server" Text=” <%$ AppSettings:CompanyName %> ” > </asp:Literal> • Example • Deploymentexample/MasterPages/MyMasterpage.master Deployment

  6. Transportation options • When copying a web site you have 4 ways of transporting the files to the production environment • File System • Files are moved manually • Local IIS • Files are moved automatically to a local IIS • FTP Site • Files are sent to IIS using FTP (File Transfer Protocol) • Remove Site • Files are sent to IIS using IIS • Requires Front Page Server Extensions Deployment

  7. Microsoft IIS • IIS (Formerly Internet Information Server) • Microsoft’s web server • Comes with most major Windows versions • But is not installed! • IIS must be installed and configured • Configured to execute ASP.NET Deployment

  8. Installing and configuring IIS • Control Panel -> System and Security -> IIS Manager • Select ”Default Web site” and click ”Advanced Settings” (left) • Set Physical path • Right click ”Default Web Site” to add a new application Deployment
