Web Application Setup

[Arnold]

Hi,

I am trying to create a Web Applcation Setup Project. I would like it to be
installed in a folder other than "C:\InetPub\www root". How do I get Visual
Studio to do this? If there is any other way to go about this, please let me
know.

Thank you.

Hi Arnold,

Follow these steps:
1. Create a virtual directory using IIS at the folder you want to store the
project.
2. Grant access permissions to the ASPNET user to this folder.

Now, create a new web application project in VSNET and in the location
textbox, give this:
http://localhost/<virtualdirname >

VSNET will create the project files within the designated folder.

Yeah. Thanks.

But how do I get the installation to install into a folder other than
"Inetpub\wwwroo t\virtual folder"
