What are the steps to publish my ASP.NET project to the server?


The followings are the guidelines to publish your project properly to our server

1. Please open your project with Visual Studio tool
2. On the Solution Explorer windows (which is normally located on the top right hand corner of the VS tool), right click your project and select Publish
3. Please kindly publish it to a local folder, such as C:\Project
4. Please just upload whatever files/folders you see on C:\Project to our server via FTP and your site will work fine

Important NOTE:
If you are using Visual Studio 2015 or later version, the publishing step may look a bit different. 

1. Please open your website project with Visual Studio 2015. They may have been a pre-set .NET version such as .NET 4.6.1 on your project.
2. Then, please go to the Solution Explorer, Right Click the project and select "Publish Web App" website. Please select "FTP" as the deployment method. The following details must be entered:

Server: ftp://www.yourDomain.com --> This will work if and only if your domain has been pointed to our nameserver
Site Path: httpdocs  -> this assumes you will publish your project to the root site of your domain
Passive Mode: tick
Username: your_FTP_username
Password: your_FTP_password
Destination URL: http://www.YourDomain.com

3. Please hit Publish
