Deploying a asp.net website using team city

Question

How to deploy a web site project, which does not have any project file.

we are trying to automate build and deployment using team city.

i am able to successfully build the project, but not able to deploy the web site.

How do you “able to successfully build the project” without project file? Do you use msbuild or a batch script? — Artem Koshelev

Have you tried writing a command line or powershell script for the deploy process and adding it as a build step? — Dan Hoerst

MsDeploy supports deployment of WebSites via contentPath provider:

msdeploy -verb:sync -source:contentPath=WebSite\Deploy,computername=localhost -dest:auto...

Just change WebSite\Deploy to your actual path in your agent working directory, where is your builded website for deployment.
