升级到Visual Studio 2012.2后，发布网站停止工作

Question

Ok, after upgrading my Visual Studio from 2012 to Visual Studio 2012.2 ( http://www.asp.net/vnext ), I cannot publish my website.

When right clicking on my web project and click "Publish Web Site", I get a different window than I used too. However, I've set up my publish profile like this:

Then I get dependency errors, as you can see here (yeah, no discussion about the DropBox physical path, that shouldn't be the problem):

I can easily build the project, and I can also publish when it's publishing to DEBUG mode.

You can see my SLN file here, and all the links seem correct. The only doubt I have is the Release.AspNetCompiler.TargetPath, as that's the old path it used. :

Project("{E24C65DC-7377-472B-9ABA-BC803B73C61A}") = "Client", "Client\", "{E9447A39-3F6B-4603-B476-FB72BDB41015}"

I really don't have any idea what's wrong. But I certainly would love to be able to publish my website!

I have tried to restart Visual Studio, rebuild solution, clean the solution and restart the computer.

Thanks Microsoft - I enjoyed the update.. Grrrr! :-(

Answer 1

I've had some nasty issues with the publish options in Visual Studio 2012 as well.

A few things you might want to try:
- Remove the publish profile (also check filesystem).
- Clean solution.
- Close Visual Studio.
- Restart your PC (to kill all webserver processes).
- Clean temp. files under C:\\Windows\\Microsoft.Net\\Framework\\.
- Start Visual Studio.
- Build.
- Recreate publish profile.

I guess, you need to abandon Visual Studio 2010 or 11 permanently, and do not uninstall either of them. It seems you'll re-break Visual Studio 2012 if you open a solution in them.

1. Open the start menu and type "%AppData%" and enter to get to your Application Data Folder .
2. Go to the "Roaming" folder if you weren't automatically placed in that folder.
3. Open the "Microsoft" folder.
4. Open the "VisualStudio" folder.
5. You'll see a folder named "11.0" the VS 2012 folder and also "10.0" the VS 2010 folder.
6. Delete or rename the "10.0" folder.
7. Delete or rename all the other folders that are not the "11.0" folder.
8. Restart Visual Studio 2012 .

And see if your Visual Studio 2012 will work.. Good luck!
