Upgrading from Beta 2 to 1.0 in production server

Hi there! I'm going to upgrade MS Ajax as subject. I read somewhere else I should restart IIS to make it use the new version. How can I do it without restarting the server? Any other things I should have in mind while performing the upgrade?

Thanks,

-Benton

Hi benton,

Restart IIS --> Open --> run --> iisrestart

Upload AjaxControlToolkit.resources.dll in production server

Do I really need to upload all AjaxControlToolkit.resources.dll in my production server?

Thanks!

Only if you want to support the relevant languages. If English is all you need, feel free to omit the satellite DLLs.

Use Asp.net ajax with running the installation program.

Can asp.net ajax be deployed to a production server via a xcopy operation (as part of the application)? Is it possible to deploy without having to have the server admins run the ajax installation program on the production server?

Thanks

Copy the System.Web.Extensions and System.Web.Extensions.Design from the GAC of your local pc into the bin directory of you production server. Ensure that your web.config has the required setting for Ajax Framework.

How to copy System.Web.Extensions and System.Web.Extensions.Design from GAC? Can I copy this assemblies from C:\Program Files\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Extensions\v1.0.61025?

Whats the "required settings"?

Is that enough:
