DOCUMENT:Q194826 04-MAR-2002 [ssafe] TITLE :HOWTO: Designate a Visual SourceSafe Project as a Web Project PRODUCT :Microsoft SourceSafe PROD/VER::5.0,6.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbSSafe500 kbSSafe600 kbSSExplorer kbDSupport ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for Windows, versions 5.0, 6.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= When creating a Web site from a Visual SourceSafe project, some of the information that is asked for is not fully explained. MORE INFORMATION ================ The following is a description of what each box on the Web Project tab expects: This Project represents a Web Site ---------------------------------- This is the project that is going to be made into a Web project. URL --- This is the server location where the Web site will be located. This should include: http://" in front of it. It should be the entire path to the Web site. For example: http://MyServer/MyDivision/MyProject Virtual Root ------------ If the project will be accessed from a different, shorter path, add that path here. In IIS, these are known as Virtual Directories; other Web Servers may have something similar that this might work with. You do not add the first "/" for the directory. For example, "MySite" would make this Web site's location be "http://MyServer/MySite". Site map filename ----------------- Change the default name of the site map you can create for this site. The default name is SiteMap.htm. Deployment path --------------- This is where the Web site should be sent. It can contain multiple locations, all separated by commas. They should be ftp addresses or directory paths. Please see the following examples: C:\InetPub\Wwwroot\mysite \\Server\Wwwroot\mysite ftp://username:password@www.microsoft.com/mysite \\Server\Wwwroot\mysite, ftp://username:password@Myserver Set Another ----------- This commits the changes for this project and then clears the boxes so that you can set another if you choose. If you click OK, you commit the changes.
