I've been bashing a keyboard for hours on this seemingly simple task: I have created many Web Services before, and published them using FTP to my Web Server with few problems. Today, my computer seems to not like me...
*** PROBLEM ***
Basically: when I publish my web service project, the .dll (code behind) isn't published to the server, nor is the bin folder. The asmx and web.config files ARE present.
-----------------------
If I startup Visual Studio (2005) IDE, create a new VB ASP.Net Web Service, and immediately publish the project (without saving) to my web server, then the dll's ARE created on the server (and the default "hello world" Web Method works fine). This negates it being a permissions problem, or a server setup problem.
What is crazy is, if I do exactly the same process, but this time SAVE the project locally, the bin folder is not created and the dlls are not present.
Any clues why this would happen?! Sure I could upload the dll's manually but thats not my issue.
