How to install WebDev.WebServer.exe as a standalone application?

Question

How can I install Visual Studio Web Development Server (WebDev.WebServer.exe) as a Standlone application?

So that our web designers can get the latest code from SVN, then run the MSBuild batch file to create the code, and then run the batch file to run the code using a local copy of the web development server (WebDev.WebServer EXE).

Note. I want to not install Visual Studio on all my computers.

EDIT . I did as suggested below, and I get this error:

Application failure WebDev.WebServer.EXE, version 9.0.30729.1, time stamp 0x488f1aa2, faulty module KERNEL32.dll, version 6.0.6001.18215, time stamp 0x49953395, exception code 0xe0434f4d, error offset 0x000442eb, process identifier 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, application start time 0x% 9, start time % 10.

Answer 1

These files are needed:

• WebDev.WebHost.dll
• WebDev.WebServer.EXE
• WebDev.WebServer.exe.manifest

And you may need to install WebDev.WebHost.dll in the GAC.

Copy and paste this code into the .BAT file:

@SET GACUTIL="C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\bin\gacutil.exe" Echo Installing WebDev.WebHost.dll in GAC %GACUTIL% -if WebDev.WebHost.dll 

Hope this helps someone.

thanks

For VS2010, you need to copy the WebDev.WebServer20.exe and WebDev.WebServer40.exe files to the location of your choice. When they start, they set the base directory of the application domain to the path you specify on the command line, so you will also need to place the WebDev.WebHost.dll and WebDev.WebHost20.dll assemblies in the GAC so that they can be found.

going to the control panel add / remove the program. Go into maintenance mode, click the "Add / Remove" button, then a window will open, click the "Download" button, and then you will see several functions, "Web Development Server" and start the update.
