12.3. Solution

The "Solution" section of this chapter was actually merged with the "Design" section when I demonstrated how to solve the deployment problems while introducing some new ASP.NET 2.0 features, and I provided the background knowledge necessary to deploy the site. The solution I actually implemented for deploying the sample site consisted of using a Web Deployment Project to create a local pre-compiled copy of the site in an IIS virtual application, which I later deployed to the production server by means of an FTP client. I also switched from using SQL Server Express on my development computer to using the full SQL Server 2005 as my deployed target. To see my result, you can browse the sample site online by going to www.dotnet2themax.com/thebeerhouse. I also created a web installer so that I could easily redistribute the site to colleagues, friends, and other people.
