Question HELP - can you change project folder?

Hi - I'm new to this forum, so please bear with me. I had worked on a project well over a year ago, helping a client implement a simple SQL Server/.net web solution. Since then, their main developer has left and they now need to make some changes to the code. Unfortunately, he was the one building and deploying the code and I'm at a loss as to how he did it and how we can get our changes to take affect.

Basically, my issue is that the solution's project folder is pointing to the wrong URL. It was the correct URL in the beginning, but since then, they have added another domain name which points to the exact same folder as before. When I make any changes and rebuild, it works for the old URL, but not the new one (I assume because the old URL is stored within the solution). Is there any EASY way to change this? I don't think creating a new project will work because the new URL points directly to the code where as the old one pointed to the wwwroot directory. Everytime I've tried to create a new project in the new URL, it doesn't recognize it. To demonstrate:

OLD application: http://www.oldurl.com/admin/
NEW application: http://www.newurl.com
(again, both are pointing to the exact same directory)

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! I've been out of the ASP.net loop for a while now, so I'm really struggling. Also, using the old url is not an option since the new one contains all the licensing we need for web editing software.

HELP!

Thanks,
Melissa

HELP - can you change project folder?

Hey Melissa,

Couple of things you can try:
Edit the project.vbproj.webinfo file. It is a text file and controls the project folder url.
Verify the new folder is an IIS Virtual Directory, web sharing is not enough.
Worse case none of these works, try Project Menu | Copy Project to new location.
