asp.net - MSBUILD script building solution, but not deploying publishing profile -

i have created publishing profile web page, , can publish using web deploy interface in visual studio (right click project, deploy etc). builds project on local pc, , copies files across destination iis server.

but trying create msbuild command, should same, building solution, not copying across server.

my msbuild command looks this, , run solution source directory

msbuild "test.co.za.sln" p:deployonbuild=true /p:publishprofile="test.co.za" /p:username="domain\test" /p:password="test"

is there wrong build command? can see in screenshot, building successfully, no files beingness copied across. makes me wonder if publishing profile executed @ all. have tried various combinations of publishprofile paths, total paths, extensions, without, nil seems re-create files accross.

my publishing profile looks app_data\publishprofile\test.co.za.pubxml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <project toolsversion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"> <propertygroup> <webpublishmethod>msdeploy</webpublishmethod> <lastusedbuildconfiguration>debug</lastusedbuildconfiguration> <siteurltolaunchafterpublish>http://test.co.za</siteurltolaunchafterpublish> <launchsiteafterpublish>true</launchsiteafterpublish> <msdeployserviceurl>test.co.za</msdeployserviceurl> <deployiisapppath>test.co.za</deployiisapppath> <skipextrafilesonserver>true</skipextrafilesonserver> <msdeploypublishmethod>wmsvc</msdeploypublishmethod> <username>domain\test</username> <_savepwd>true</_savepwd> </propertygroup> </project>

edit: existing classic asp website added solution, doesn't contain ".csproj" file, "website.publishproj", doesn't seem execute

it doesn't passing in visualstudioversion property. should include that. value either 11.0, 12.0, or 14.0 based on version of visual studio using. should pass in value configuration it's not required. i've blogged why of import @ http://sedodream.com/2012/08/19/visualstudioprojectcompatabilityandvisualstudioversion.aspx.

you can find docs asp.net command line publishing @ http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/deployment/visual-studio-web-deployment/command-line-deployment
