.NET Forum / ASP.NET / Web Services / May 2005Simple question about using a web service
My apologies for asking something so basic, I just want to avoid unpleasant surprises. I am using a web service developed by someone else on a remote server. In my development environment I used Visual Studio to create a Web Reference. I have successfully connected to and used the web service. Here's the question. When I migrate the application to the production server, is there anything special I need to do? Or do I just copy the Web References directory created by Visual Studio, along with the files it contains (Reference.map, Reference.vb, plus the .disco and .wsdl files) to the production server? Much obliged, Geoff. > Here's the question. When I migrate the application to the production > server, is there anything special I need to do?

That is all source files. > it contains (Reference.map, Reference.vb, plus the .disco and .wsdl > files) to the production server? None. Just copy your binary file in the bin\Release dir. -- Chad Z. Hower (a.k.a. Kudzu) - http://www.hower.org/Kudzu/ "Programming is an art form that fights back" Blog: http://blogs.atozed.com/kudzu I should have mentioned that this is a Web Forms (i.e. ASP.Net) project, not a Windows Forms, so there is no Release directory. But there is a dll directly under the bin directory. So, is your answer essentially the same, just copy the dll file in the bin directory (as opposed to the exe file in the bin\Release directory)? >> Here's the question.

You do need the web.config as well, and *.asmx -- Chad Z. Hower (a.k.a.

But there is a Sorry - Ignore kind of my last reply. I remember now you were asking about a CLIENT initially, but this last mesasge you refer to the server? Thats why I said bin/release. You have an ASP.NET webforms client that uses a webservice? If thats the case, you deploy everything you normally deploy for ASP.NET webforms, ie *.aspx, the bin dir, global.asax and web.config. You do not need anything extra to use the webservice, all of the code is compiled into the binary. -- Chad Z. Hower (a.k.a.
