I have solution that consist of several project (frontend - MVC, access layer - codefirst and business layer).
What should I do to deploy these project to single azure web apps ?
Thank you,
You can deploy multiple projects in single Azure web app using Application Settings -> virtual applications and directories to set multiple project locations and marking them as application.
Check this blog - This explains the steps

So I'm trying to deploy a test site to Azure.
The site has a database which was built in SQL server management studios, then I used ADO.NET Entity Data model to import the database into visual studios. Then I just used scaffolding to create CRUD operations.
How do I deploy this web app to Azure?
I used a database first so I'm not sure if that's a problem
I've tried following some tutorials but they seem to have different UI
eg. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/mvc/overview/getting-started/database-first-development/publish-to-azure
First you want to go into Tools in your nav menu and check for 'Get Tools And Features'. Make sure you have Azure tools installed, and from there you'll be able to access the Azure menu to publish your web app directly from Visual Studio. You can also do this in VS Code, however you'll need the official Azure extension from Microsoft.
I never notests this but if you create a new asp.net MVC website in visual studio you get full azure integration without knowing it. Turns out all of my applications, while hosted on my own server, are logging everything they do with Azure.
If I remove all azure dependencies from my project it won't build anymore. Is there a way to remove this feature from my asp.net project template? I really don't like this, for one, my inbox is exploding with "Data collection for .... has reached it's daily cap" emails and two, I feel violated in my privacy, why does Microsoft have know everthing of my projects?
Sorry for the possible duplicate question, but Google really isn't my friend on this one.
Actually, when you create a new project with default options you don't get any Azure integrations.
If your application is with Azure AD authentication, you should disable this when creating the new project.
If your application is doing logging on Azure, you can disable Application Insights.
Currently I have MVC2 web application(on going). If I'm to use Azure PaaS (Platform as a Service), Can I use the existing project. Or should I create new project (using Cloud service project template)? Can it be migrated? And what kind of effort will it take for migration? Or should I rewrite the entire application with new project template?
You don't have to rewrite the project itself, you can simply add another project to your solution (which is a cloud project) and then point it to your other project in the associated definitions.
This is a useful technique when you already have existing projects that you want to migrate to Azure.
Not sure if this would work with MVC 2 web application but you can simply try to convert the web application to Cloud Services project by right clicking on your project in Visual Studio (I used VS 2013), then Convert context menu and then selecting Convert to Microsoft Azure Cloud Service Project.
I have several websites that I manage for a company and they want me to transition to TFS. As part of their policy, I can only deploy files that have changed since the last deployment. I.e. if a view has changed then it gets deployed, if it has not changed then it not part of the deployment package. They use automated tools for the deployments.
Currently I use a custom tool I wrote that hooks into my local source provider (Vault Pro) and finds all the changes from a given date and copies those files to a zip file.
How can I accomplish something similar with Team Foundation Server?
TFS provides you with an SDK that you could use to query it from code. Here's the documentation of the client API.
We're using this process to use WebDeploy to deploy and compile two web sites that are a part of the solution. The approach we took was found here:
http://vishaljoshi.blogspot.com/2010/11/team-build-web-deployment-web-deploy-vs.html
But it's only deploying one of the web sites; is there a way to tell it to publish both?
Thanks.
Web Packages created based on the above walkthrough (i.e. via VS 2010 and its derivatives like TFS etc) can only contain one web project. Unfortunately VS generated Web Packages will be limited from this sense. If you use Web Deploy (MSDeploy) EXE or API directly and then you can package more than one web site within IIS etc. I believe you are trying to accomplish this via Team Build so that is not really an option.
Although, in Team Build you can create more than one build definitions to cause multiple packages to be created. You can also set properties in your .csproj or .vbproj file (same properties mentioned in Step10 of the walkthrough). If more than one project have properties DeployOnBuild set to be true then from within single solution build within TFS you can have multiple web packages generated. You will still have to deploy each web independently.
Hope this helps
