I zipped an ASP.NET MVC Azure project up and copied it to another computer (both have VS 2008). I thought I could just unzip it in ‘Documents\Visual Studio\Projects’, but I can’t quite get it working. My site builds, but the browser doesn’t see the master page or Site.css. Should moving projects around as Zip files just work?
My real question is, what’s the best way for one developer to share an ASP.NET MVC Azure project among 3 different computers? Should I use something like Dropbox or Live Mesh? Or, github maybe?
OP here. The problem was that ‘Static Content’ was not enabled in IIS on the second computer. The latest installation instructions for Azure (March ’09 CTP) omit this crucial step. The first computer originally ran the Jan ’09 CTP, whose instructions included the step about enabling Static Content. Moving projects around by zipping them up seems to work fine.
