Publish MVC project missing files #4241 | Support Center

[email protected] created 7 years ago

After building and testing the project on my local machine I tried to publish to AZURE

I am getting very strange UI behaviors

The flags are missing on register user Fonts are not correct The menu on the portal does not work When I sign in the browser shows the result in text view , does not redirect to the dashboard Customize the UI hides the menu

All this is perfect on local VS run

Is there some extra step I need to do deploy the project

thanks

Running into similar issues with published version in release mode.

None of the key nav menus respond to clicks in chrome browser

Are you publishing from VS?

I ran into some issues with the gulpfile see GitHub issues about it.

But I can now build via VSTS and it publishes fine. You need to restore nugget packages restore/install npm packages build project run guilpfile to bundle/min js files (I had to make a new task to remove watch from the default build otherwise the build hung since watch keeps running.) then you can publish

Hi,

Thanks @BBakerMMC. You also need to run gulp with --dev parameter to minify your bundled script & css files. It is not done by default in development to be able to debug javascript codes.

Thanks @BBakerMMC Is it possible for you to share your VSTS Config. The differences from the default and also how to setup the GULP step

thanks heapsJulian

My steps are: Dotnet restore - Path to MVC Project NPM Install - Path to MVC Project Root folder (IE src/*.Web.MVC) Dotnet build - Path to MVC Project Gulp - Path to GulpFile.js in MVC Project (Using my vstsbuild gulp task) DotNet Publish - Path to MVC project (Zip, add name checked) Publish Artifact - Path to generated artifact

My Modified GulpFile.

@BBakerMMC

thanks but I still can't get all the files bundled - everything else is working in the CI build...

can you please share the "Using my vstsbuild gulp task" or are you calling the default task?

I must of grabbed an old gulpfile.

Just add this. Also in my previous post I commented out the "//if (gutil.env.prod) {" if you dont do this you need to pass "prod" as an additional param in the VSTS gulp config. (I personally like having the min files every time this run and I didnt know of a way for the built in task runner to run with it so I just commented it out)

gulp.task('vstsbuild', ['copy:node_modules'], function () { runSequence(['min:css', 'min:js']); });
