Site Deployment

I have developed a site on my local machine. To deploy this site to a web server can I confirm that I need to copy ALL files in my web project to the server, AND backup and restore the database from my local SQL installation to the SQL installation on the server? Plus I need to amend some configuration settings on the web server.

So once deployed, presumably any file changes I wish to make I would make first on my development machines, and then FTP any changed files to the web server?

Thanks

Re: Site Deployment

Hi
If you are using VS2005 the deployment is really easy.You can go to Build->Publish website in a new folder and copy all those files from the new folder to your production server.
But one disadvantage is that you need to do this everytime you make a correction in the source file.Becos the references inside the dll and source files are changed duing publishing.
Hope this helps.

Regards,
MRB
