My developement pc runs Windows 7 PRO with iIIS 7.5.
I am running SQL server 2008 and webserver IIS 7.0

When publishing site will this cause any problems?

Hi Doni,

basicly it makes no problems. For moving to a other server:
Backup the database, and create the same dbuser on the new SQL server, restore the database, make sure in your database security the dbo user have the same username as on your old database, and if you have a 2nd user they have also the same login as on the  old database.

Copy all files from the Website folder to the new root folder of the new server.
Delete all codebehind files if you created a WAP module from it.
Change the 2 SQL strings in the web.config file to the new SQL server if it is needed.

Make sure you have set the correct physical permissions to all files and subfolders.
Change the PortalAlias in the database to the used domain name.

Open the Webite.

Thanks. my main concern was building in IIS 7.5 and deploying on IIS 7.0 which appears to be ok.

Not sure what WAP is yet, will find out shortly.

WAP refers to custom module development only. please be aware that you might encounter issues, if you create a database in SQL Server 2008 R2 and try to run it on any previous version of sql server.
