Visual Studio 2005 Asp.net Convert wizardWe have a rather large asp.net 1.1 project. We have considered til convert 2.0 in the near future. We have done a couple of test conversions using the build in Migration tool which pop up when opening a asp 1.1 solution file. It went ok besides a few issues. Now i have installed the patch to fix som issues regarding this tool : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7cecd652-fc04-4ef8-a28a-25c5006677d8&DisplayLang=en Ok. But to me it seemes that somethings has changed. First of all the conversion is not valid anymore. I think the problem might be that it converts the solution in the original directory as the old solution. As far as I remembers (I might be wrong) i could choose as destenation for the convertet solution (anohter dir) But is option is not available anymore. It just says: Conversion type: In-place with no backup As the first screen with no option to do anything except to press Cancel or Finish were Finish starts thr Conversion. Can i start the migration wizard up somehow in a more "advanced" mode? Regards Anders Anders,
why not just copy everything to a new virtual directory and run the wizard on it from there?

That actually did it. Don't know why i didnt think about it. But now i > why not just copy everything to a new virtual directory and run the wizard > on it from there? have another question. As far as i undestand Vs. 2005 asp.net 2.0 does not use sln og project file anymore due to the new compilation strategy. But after I have convertert my 1.1 project i still have the solution file ets. If I open this solution file everyting works pefectly. But how can this be? If I open the converted project with Open Website nothing works anymore. I get some compile error and I can't launch my website. My folder structure is like the following with 2 websites wihtin one solution. Solution WebProject1 WebProject1 Class lib1 Class lib2 Class lib3 Etc. I though that i needed the Beta web Project thing Microsoft has just released to keep working as I did in Vs.2003? Confussed...yes.. Regards Anders The beta ASP.NET Web Project "Thing" is not finished, its just a preview
release. And I doubt it would work with a converted project as you didn't originally start out with it. Yes, it is confusing! And they haven't made it easier by releasing pieces "after the fact". -- Show quoteCo-founder, Eggheadcafe.com developer portal: http://www.eggheadcafe.com UnBlog: http://petesbloggerama.blogspot.com "Anders" wrote: > > Anders, > > why not just copy everything to a new virtual directory and run the wizard > > on it from there? > > Ok.

Project at all I just can't undestand why my Visual Studio 2005 RTM have converted my asp.net 1.1 to a 2.0 WITH solution files and projects when its stated that the asp.net 2.0 model is WITHOUT solutions etc. I just mentioned the ASP.NET Web Project "Thing" because it looks like Visual Studio 2005 RTM is using this model..native.. Actually i have no idea wehter there IS any problem. Im just confussed why i have a solution file in my asp,net 2,0 Is my problem / concerns undestandable? Regards Anders Hi Anders,
> I just can't undestand why my Visual Studio 2005 RTM have converted my As I understand it, the rules are slightly different for "Projects" vs > asp.net 1.1 to a 2.0 WITH solution files and projects when its stated that > the asp.net 2.0 model is WITHOUT solutions etc. "WebSites". For Projects you still have solutions and project files, but WebSites are now just treated (the whole thing) as a project so you don't need a project file anymore, however, you can still have a "solution" with WebSites inside it if you want. I've had some major problems trying to convert true IIS "WebSites" from 1.1 to "FileSystem" WebSites in 2.0, in that the *.csproj file was not deleted after the conversion and then it tries to convert it again! I've just downloaded the conversion wizard "update" to see if it is any better. -- Gerry Hickman (London UK)  |
