Visual Studio 2015重置Web项目以使用IIS Express

Question

I have a web project in VS2015 that I want to run on Local IIS. I set this up in the project properties and it works correctly, but whenever I close and reopen Visual Studio it always resets the project to use IIS Express.

EDIT: this happens when I close and reopen the solution, even if Visual Studio has stayed open.

Why is this happening, and how can I change it? (Note - other users are working on the same project so I don't want to store my Local IIS settings in the project file as I assume this would overwrite their settings when they got the latest version of the code.)

Answer 1

I edited the .csproj.user file and this fixed the problem. I changed <UseIISExpress>true</UseIISExpress> to <UseIISExpress>false</UseIISExpress> and left everything else the same.

I still don't know why doing this through the UI didn't save, if anyone else can explain it I'll happily accept their answer.

Answer 2

NibblyPig pointed out in their comment that:

it appears that if you don't change the URL then it doesn't save the setting. So I changed my Project Url, pressed save, then changed it back and pressed save again and it updated the file.

I'm just putting this as an answer so it's easier to find, but full credit to NibbyPig for finding this.

Answer 3

Delete the file projectName.csproj.user . User specified preferences in this file overwrite the project settings.

Answer 4

If you don't save settings how would you expect to persist it and be available when next time you open project? I understand your concern that your settings shouldn't affect other team members who are working on same project. Your concern can be taken care if you follow below steps. Whatever settings you will do will remain local and applicable to you only and other team members will not get impacted.

1. Go to project properties.
2. Go to Web tab on property page.
3. Untick "Apply server settings to all users as shown below.

4. Click Save button in toolbar.

   This way your settings will be stored in xxxx.user file and not in project file.

Answer 5

This is what worked for me using VS 2015 Update 3. This is related to what NibblyPig said. But for me only worked when editing the project file directly.

1. Unload the project. (If the project is not loading at all just go to #2)
2. Edit project file. The only entry that needs to be changed is (almost at the end of the file) <IISUrl> . There is no need to mess with <UseIISExpress> configuration, you can leave it as it is.

An entry for IISExpress will look similar to this one:

<IISUrl>http://localhost:123456</IISUrl>

Change it to something like this one:

<IISUrl>http://localhost/your_site_in_iis</IISUrl>

Note: "your_site_in_iis" should be an existing website.

3. Save and close project file.
4. Close the solution (this one is important).
5. Open the solution again and the problem should go away.
