Rebuild an ASP.NET Application on Cloud Sites
If you are developer of ASP.NET applications on Cloud Sites, you may need to rebuild your code in order to see your new work or changes.
As you are developing an ASP.NET application on Cloud Sites, you may need to rebuild your code in order to see your new work or changes.
The easiest way to force a rebuild of your ASP.NET application is to edit your website’s web.config file. Renaming this file changes the file’s “last changed” date, causing your application to rebuild. A non-destructive edit you can make to this file is simple: rename the web.config file. After your application rebuilds, you can change the filename back to web.config so the settings in that file are also used. If you don’t want to rename your file, you can use FTP to delete and then re-upload your web.config file as well.
