.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / IDE / April 2004Where is WebSettings path stored?
I have looked in .csproj and in .sln file and cannot locate where the Project/Web Settings/Path is stored. Also looked in csproj.webinfo file and cannot find it. I have run out of places to look. Please help.  Signature----------------------------------- Ken Varn Senior Software Engineer Diebold Inc. EmailID = varnk Domain = Diebold.com ----------------------------------- I assume you're talking about the Path for the FileShare Web Access method? If so, you can access it from the project Property Pages dialog box, opened by right-clicking the project in the Solution Explorer and selecting Properties from the context menu. It's saved to the Global.asax.xml file which is stored in the global.asax.xml file in a subfolder of the \WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET Files\ProjectName folder. This folder is created the first time you run the Web app or when the project is first opened on a new dev machine. It's also stored in the VS Web Cache. When you move the project to a new machine, you need to first create the virtual directory in IIS. If you then open the solution, it looks for information in VS Web cache and in the Temporary ASP.NET Files for information. If nothing is found, which should be the case when it's a new project on the machine, it queries IIS for the exact location of the project files. There's more to it than that, but that's the overall picture.

I have noticed that if I do in fact move a project file to a different machine, and create a virtual directory in IIS to point to that project, I am asked for the path of the project when it is opened the first time. Is there anyway to avoid this? Also, are these temporary ASP.NET files ever cleaned up? If I delete a project, do these temporary file still stick around?

Are you sure you haven't had the project on this machine before and not removed it from the temporary ASP.NET Files folder as well as the VS Web cache? > Also, are these temporary ASP.NET files ever cleaned up?

Yes, you manually have to delete the temporary files. > > I have noticed that if I do in fact move a project file to a different > > machine, and create a virtual directory in IIS to point to that project, I [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > the project on this machine before and not removed it from the temporary > ASP.NET Files folder as well as the VS Web cache? There is a possiblity that the project may have been on the machine in a different location at one time. Maybe that is why it asks for a new sub-dir. > > Also, are these temporary ASP.NET files ever cleaned up?

One would think that there would be some built-in method in Visual Studio for doing this to avoid the problem stated above.
