nightly builds/svn/asp.net

i am looking for some software that can do nightly builds of my svn projects. they are all .net/c#/web projects.

if possible could they be built and put in a directory? also email alerts for errors?

I assume hudson runs under windows OK in a java servlet ?

I only spent 20 mins looking at cruisecontrol but did seem like an awful lot of config.

edit: a tiny bit of reading and yes it can

Wow hudson was an easy setup - thanks for the tip.

 

[Izi]

does anyone know a way to publish thr project after it has been build to a directory on the same machine?

 

[Izi]

a.k.a. deploy to a given folder?

Use MSDeploy in a build step on Hudson.

trying to find how to use MSDeploy, can you point me in the right direction?

thanks for help!

yeh I Googled that but I couldn't see where web deploy could take an SLN, build then publish to file system.

It seems its more geared towards syncing IIS and deployment for IIS only?

Thanks for your help.

Where are you looking to deploy, if not to IIS?

If you are wanting to create an installer, then look at WIX: http://wix.codeplex.com/

Yes looking to deploy to IIS, not from another IIS installation.

All i need to do is dump the compiled files in to a folder because the sites are already set up in IIS.

This is the functionality I am trying to replicate from cmd line:

That's exactly what MSDeploy does?

I thought it used MSDeploy, but I still can't find where via cmd line I can achieve what is being done in that image.

Normally my Google skills are good enough, but I can't find anything.

Where are the profiles stored ? I assume they are XML.
