I have a VB net project that won't compile because the server it previously published to is...?

Question

...now gone.
I have inherited a VB net project that I need to make changes to. The original publish directory no longer exists since the server it was on is now gone. I tried to change the publish location in project properties, but it keeps failing to build because the former directory no longer exists. How can I get the code to forget that old drive??

Answer 1

Does the new server have the whole path that existed on the old server?



For example, if the old server was mounted with:



NET USE S: \\OLDSERVERNAME



and the path was S:\VB\Bins\Published\Public\Honk_Project_Dir



but now you mount with:





NET USE \\NEWSERVERNAME



and you must create: S:\VB\Bins\Published\Public\Honk_Project



with say: mkdir /p S:\VB\Bins\Published\Public\Honk_Project_Dir



save thing even if youy use UNC paths. In general the whole path has to be there oh, plus it has to be writeable by you remotely.

Answer 3

Check the project properties and select the publish tab.



If you are using a autobuild for this, then you have to check the config file in TFS for the particular build
