I’ve installed MSDeploy on my machine. I am using Visual Studio 2010 and C#. Trying to load ‘Microsoft.Web.*’ to code some sexy msdeploy functionality. Perhaps I’m a level 3 tard (highly probable) but the documentation for getting this absolutely blow as@.

The error I get is:
“The type or namespace name ‘Web’ does not exist in the namespace ‘Microsoft’ (are you missing an assembly reference?)”

So — of course I try to load it via References, but it aint there. I then Google like a mf for “webdeploy api C#” and the such and cannot for the love of the giant spaghetti monster find anything on how to install / download the msdeploy (“microsoft.web.*) .dlls, apis.

Anyone can point a brother to a link?

I did download and install “WebDeploymentSetup.msi”, but nope. I did install “webdeploy_en.msi” but nope. Then I found this craaaazy thing called “AzurePack.exe” — didn’t even try to install that. But, will if someone says that’s it.

Thanks.

    The Microsoft.Web.Deployment.dll can be found here:
    c:\Program Files\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy V3\Microsoft.Web.Deployment.dll

    Point a reference to that.

    The only prerequisite is installing WebDeploy v3.0:
