Hi all, I was just wondering, how do I go about making an asp.net application accessible on the internet? The application is also linked to a SQL database (created in visual studio). I have got server space available but I'm not sure where the sql database needs to be copied on etc. A quick search on the net brought up things like "deploying the site on azure" which I have absolutely no idea what it means, I just want to upload the application on a server I own - well, rather the company I work for own. What would I need to ask the support team for this to happen?
thanks

Jump to PostIf you publish your web project, you should have all the files they need to put on the server. If you accept file uploads or need logging, you may need to instruct them which folders need to be created additionally and given write permissions.
As for the database, the web.config …

If they don't your either going to have to find a new host, serve it yourself or use a different language.
