Question

I developed a WCF service which works fine at the machine for development. Now i want to deploy it on another server without VisualStudio, only with IIS and .Net framework installed.
I want to confirm whether the following steps are correct or not:

1. Pick WCF Files: web.config; Service.svc; and Bin foloder (Service.dll)
2. Put WCF files in one IIS directory, and link to a vitual dir
3. Browse it

thanks!

Answer 1

I believe that should be sufficient.

The simplest means of deploying (assuming permissions and network connectivity) is to right-click the project in Visual Studio and select publish. You can publish to a folder that you’ve already set up as a virtual directory.
