Just been playing with Web Deployment projects under VS2005. Firstly its a shame that the project isn't created like all the other projects in VS.
Secondly it failed under Vista, not entirely surprising, but what was heartening was how far it got. It basically only failed in the IIS 7.0 setup, which is an option I selected anyway.
Now by taking up the over from where Web Deployment failed, and with a lot of trial and error, I found that the issue was that IIS could not read the directory. Even more strangely enabling the normal users didn't work.
- ASPNET
- LOCAL Service
- NETWORK
- NETWORK SERVICE
However enabling IIS_WPG did.
