I have a hosting account where I cannot login to the server, I must use an admin panel and FTP to deploy a project.

I have an ASP.NET 2.0 webforms Web Application that I need to deploy to a deep folder, but don’t believe I have access to create a virtual directory on this folder.

I can deploy this code/app properly on my own server by going in and creating a virtual directory. Then the app runs fine. Without the virtual directory, I get the same error on the production environment I’m trying to deploy to.

They are all parser errors, like

The file ‘/Site.master’ does not exist.

and

Could not create type ‘myNamespace.webServiceName’.

Do I need to build it differently? Publish it differently? Should it be a website instead of a Web Applications? I am several folders deep on a web server that definitely has .NET and definitely works with other apps.

    I found a way to make the Virtual Directory in my shared host (1&1). This was a deeply hidden feature in a web-based file browser, where I didn’t expect it.

    Ultimately I wasn’t able to deploy this without creating a virtual directory, so luckily they DID in fact have this feature.
