Hi,

I just wanted to check whether the following is a bug.

I upgraded from RC2 to the official release using the Project Manager. When the App was upgraded it excluded any files in the project that arent a native part of a defauly SiteFinity project i.e. I had a folder called "lib" and "images" which the upgrade process excluded. It also changed the default namespace backto SiteFinityWebApp which I had previously changed.

Neither are major issues, but worth resolving nevertheless.

Hello higgsy,

The problem is caused because we are using a web application project instead of a website. When you upgrade through the Upgrade button of the Project Manager it replaces the SitefinityWebApp.csproj file in the root of the project. Changes to to project such as including new folders, etc. are stored in this file. You can backup your csproj file before upgrade and then use a merge tool such as WinMerge to merge differences in the csproj files.

Ok- fair play. Although, the csproj file is no more than an XML file - so why not just replace the bits you need to and leave the rest alone.
