Publish/Deploy web application does not include resource files

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

In my asp.net MVC2 web application, I have global.resx file under App_GlobalResources folder. Following properties are set for the resource file.

Build Action: Embedded Resources
Copy to output Directory: Do not copy
Custom Tool: PublicResXFileCodeGenerator

I am using this file in both aspx and class files. And it works fine.

But when I publish my application, the global.resx file does not get copied into the deployed directory due to which aspx & class files fails to find the reference of the file.

How can I make sure this file gets copied when I deploy the project?

try changing the Copy to output directory property to "always".

It copies both ".resx" & "resx.cs" to bin folder. That's the un-compiled version of the file.
