Hello All,

I was hoping someone could help me with this.  I created a web application and I want to deploy it to the application server.  I added a web deployment project and built the project.  I copied the files over to the server, created a virtual directory, etc. and when I access the web app I get to the login page and after I try to login in, I get a null reference exception.  This happens because I run the sql commands in a class I created that resides in the App_Code folder.  I noticed the the build creates an App_Code.compiled file but no App_Code.dll.  Also I have compared my web deployment project with others that are setup and run as expected and I see that the other projects have an option in the configuration manager/active solution platform called mixed platforms.  I don't have .NET as a choice either.  I'm not sure why I don't have these options but it appears that they are necessary.  I need to know how I can get these as an option or even if they are essential to a proper deploy.

 Hope someone can help.  Thanks in advance.

Hello,

What are you trying exactly to do?

You could just copy all the project files into the virtual directory.

Hi,

The App_Code is designed for website project. If you add class to App_Code folder in your ASP.NET web application, this class is treated as "Content" instead of "Compile" by default.

In your case, you try to rename this App_Code folder or create a Class library to compile this class to dll and then add reference to it.

If this doesn’t help you, please feel free to let me know.

I hope this helps.
