Asp – Temp ASP.NET Files

asp.net

I have almost 800 MB and over 31,000 files in hundreds of subfolders at the following file location:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\temporary asp.net files

Are files truly temporary and are they ever cleaned up? Can they be safely deleted, perhaps, after stopping IIS?

They can be safely deleted after stopping IIS and they will regenerate what is needed when a user accesses your site.

C# – Compile Error CS0433 on pre-compiled ASP.NET 2.0 site

killing Cassini instances as above didn't work for me. ScottGu posted about this issue

setting the batch="false" attribute on the compilation section in web.config worked for me.

<configuration>

   <system.web>
       <compilation debug="false" batch="false"></compilation>
   </system.web>

</configuration>

This tells ASP.NET to dynamically compile individual .aspx/.ascx files into separate assemblies. This avoids the circular reference issue that triggers the exception.

C# – OnExit is not entering via PostSharp in asp.net project

PostSharp.AspNet implement IAssemblyPostProcessor. The path is passed ASP.NET. What PostSharp does it that it creates a temp subdirectory in this directory passed by ASP.NET, writes its output there, then copies the output back to the input.

There is no way to change this mechanism (and I don't see any reason anyway).
