Question

I am using the Visual Studio “Publish Web” screen to publish my ASP.Net to my web site.
I has worked fine up until recently with the “Mark as IIS application on destination” box checked.

I just recently added a new project to the solution to handle a specific portion of the work, and then added this project as a reference to the ASP.Net project. The problem is now the publish will not work unless I un-check the box “Mark as IIS application on destination”.

It seems dangerous to me to publish without this box checked. Does anyone know why adding this new project to the solution caused this issue and how to fix it?

This is the error I get:

Web deployment task failed.((1/20/2012 6:50:00 PM) An error occurred
when the request was processed on the remote computer.)

(1/20/2012 6:50:00 PM) An error occurred when the request was
processed on the remote computer. Unable to perform the operation.
Please contact your server administrator to check authorization and
delegation settings.

Turns out the account on the server expired.
