One of the convenient new things in Visual Studio 2005 SP1 is the ability to set the built-in ASP.NET Development Server to use “\/” as the Virtual path<\/EM> for when it runs.  This is very useful for development of web apps that will eventually be deployed to the root folder of a web server, or for web applications that use server root relative<\/EM> URLs (e.g. – “\/images\/foo.jpg”).<\/P>\n

<\/P>\n

However, when you set the Virtual path<\/EM> of the built-in development server to “\/” for a Web site, you may encounter an issue with the Publish Website<\/EM> command not working.  This may result in either of the following error messages:<\/P>\n

<\/P>\n

I’m glad to announce that our team has a hotfix available for download<\/A> that fixes the above described issue.  If you are running into this problem after installing Visual Studio 2005 SP1, please download the hotfix<\/A> and that should make the Publish Website<\/EM> command work as expected.<\/P>\n

On a related note, both Visual Studio and the .NET Framework make all high-impact hotfixes available for download at the following website: https:\/\/connect.microsoft.com\/VisualStudio\/Downloads<\/A>.<\/P>\n

Hope this information helps!<\/P>\n

Cheers,<\/P>\n
