global.asax works on local computer but not after i publish to server

How can I get my global.asax file to publish to our ftp site?

I have added a global.asax file to my project (using asp.net with c# from vs2010) which works great on my local machine. Then when I publish to our ftp site. Then copy from the ftp folder into the site folder overwriting old files. It doesn't work. I am using Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise.

Solution

  • Check that the "Build action" of the Global.asax file is set to "Content" in the file properties. All files set to content will be deployed.
