.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / General / November 2005Setup ASP.net Solution with existing asp.net site?
We have already created a asp.net intranet that has about 400 aspx,ascx pages in it. The question is how do we setup visual studio to use this existing website. We used macromedia before and all we had to do was setup a site and point it at the directory, how do we accomplish this? The layout of the site is a follows |----SubSection /---Non Public--| | |----SubSection | | Root folder-----| |----SubSection | | |----SubSection \---Public------| |----SubSection The Non Public uses the windows authentication, and the public side requires no authentication. Each SubSection is basicaly a way for us to keep each system seperate (ex. HR,Marketing,Administrative). Some pages in each subsection use ascx file in a different subsection. Public and NonPublic are setup as applications in IIS but the subsections are not. - Jason As long as you have the web.config file(s) set up correctly for the different types of sites, the different "roots", "sections" and "subsections" become folders in the web project. If you have different applications, for public and non-public (common with different auth methods), set up three projects at different points in the root and import the files from your DW project(s). You can have as many projects as you desire in a single solution. This also gives you the option of splitting into multiple solutions. It would be prudent to keep your business logic out of the presentation layer. Hope this helps.  SignatureGregory A.

I had to click the Show all files button then select everything and choose include in project. Now I have a different problem. We created all our files in a single file format, no code-behind. I realize we will have a lot of copy paste to do. But my question is how can we just add a code behind file to an existing single file aspx page? Everytime I create a codebehind file (aspx.vb) and set the codebehind in the page (aspx) it doesn't show them as being linked in my solution explorer. > As long as you have the web.config file(s) set up correctly for the > different types of sites, the different "roots", "sections" and [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Hope this helps. If you simply add the file and the appropriate CodeBehind= portion in the @ directive tag, you will be able to compile. If I remember correctly, to get the link to show up in 1.1, you will have to edit the project file. This is a shortcoming of the project system when dealing with web projects. I am not sure with 2.0, but I would assume it is either automagic (project searched on open) or in the solution file (yuck). SignatureGregory A.

When I included files into my project it asked if I wanted to creat the class file for them. So I clicked yes and it created a seperate class file for every single page. Which is nice because now I can just copy the code. But I get an error on page load. It says "Could not load type 'projectname.filename'". I can see that the codebehind page it actually a class and it looks like the aspx file is trying to call the class but cannot load the file for some reason. Any ideas? > If you simply add the file and the appropriate CodeBehind= portion in the @ > directive tag, you will be able to compile.
