"Published Failed" when deploying ASP.NET web application

[chamarajanaka]

I've developed a web application and when i try to publish it in to a folder in my local disk using the PUBLISH option in ASP.NET a error messages is showed at the bottom bar of visual studio "Published Failed" but i couldn't find the error and it doest not provide any error message other than "Published Failed". So is there a way to find the error

Try to build your application first.
Does it succeed or are there errors?

If it works then check to make sure that you have permissions to the location where you are trying to publish to.
