Can an aspmaker project migrate to asp.net maker?

aileen03 · Post by **aileen03** » Wed Sep 02, 2015 10:54 am

I would like to move my existing asp maker project to asp.net.
I have tried copying and pasting the content in the asp project file to asp.net project but not all the formatting has appeared and I cannot generate the file, I get an error saying 'no files has been selected', even though files have been selected?
Is there a way to move an asp maker 12 project to asp.net project file so that we do not need to reformat the project (tick check boxes, keep syntax for custom view pages)?

Thanks.

You can open your ASPMaker project file in ASP.NET Maker. The settings will be kept. Do not copy and paste the project files or you may corrupt some settings. However, you of course need to convert ASP code (if any) to ASP.NET code in the project settings (e.g. server events) yourself.

Thanks @vincenthung!

I was able to move the existing project to ASP.NET maker by simply opening up the project file but when I press generate, I get a lot of errors.

Are you able to provide insight as to what I need to change to remove those errors?

Regenerate ALL files with the [Clean folder] option = "App_Code and destination folder (Delete all)". Also make sure that you are using the latest version (12.0.3).

Thank you! It is now working.
