Thats odd that you had some problems with the Hyper Threaded P4. I've been running WebDeploy on one since the beginning and I've never had any problems.

Is there a forum for web deply somewhere?

Two things:
In the 'Files able to Copy' dialog (after clicking Deploy on main form), the 'Last Modified' sort needs a custom sort, since a text based sort for dates does not work as expected.

For some reason, I keep getting a 'Failure traversing the FTP Directory.' error message. Any thoughts.

I'll get a forum setup on my website. However, can you use the bug submission to submit both your ideas? This way I can keep track of them, and help you solve your ftp failure.

Ahhh, I cannot say how much this program rocks! Keep up the awesome work! Now if only I could come up with something this cool.

Is it possible to use the WebDeploy by vbproj option and have it include the \bin directory?

# Matt Hawley said on August 4, 2004 03:55 PM:

Its on the list.

I just had this happen. I was deploying an app and I notice some image files that should not go out. I hit cancel and the app said it was deleteing the backup file (which it never made) and hung up until I killed it.

Its a minor glitch, I love this thing. Thank you for writing it.

I tried it, but for some reason it doesn't pick up the dlls (yes, I selected the file extension :). I assume this isn't correct behaviour! It does take some other files from the bin directory (there was some xml doc files as it's a dev site).

I also tried putting them in the root directory to copy from, but no success. Am I doing something horribly wrong here?!

Hope not, cause it looks a great utility.

Make sure that you aren't defining file extensions anymore, but rather file masks. So, make sure that your "DLL" is set as *.dll

# Peter Johnston said on August 5, 2004 01:36 PM:

Stupid me for not noticing, yes it's .dll not *.dll. But wouldn't it be better to have *.dll in the first place as the basic profile, as are the other types (using v1.2.1)?

# Matt Hawley said on August 5, 2004 01:38 PM:

Its fully customizable, and with a fresh install you'll notice that *.dll is included as one of the defaults.

# Peter Johnston said on August 5, 2004 01:51 PM:

I know, already added *.asmx, but on the install (just redid to check) ".dll" is the default, not "*.dll" for "quick deploy profile".

Anyway, great program, thanks - passing it round the other developers here already.

Noted, found, logged, and fixed. Thanks for pointing that out, sometimes it can just slip right by.
