VSS 2005 and VS 2005

Question

I use VS 2005 and VSS 2005. Every time I close VS I get error: ss.ini not found. But except this VSS works fine, no problems when I open VS and do check in and check out. ss.ini is present and VSS repository specified as network path. I just worry that I can have problems later.

Answer 1

Ss.ini keeps track of your preferences, project locations, dialog settings, and such. The ss.ini needs to be in the user's folder for the data base. In my case, it is C:\DEV_\VSS\SourceSafe\users\amissico\ss.ini.

If the file exists, check permissions of folder and file. If the file doesn't exist, check permissions of folder.

Answer 2

Copy paste SS.ini file from user folder from another user folder into user folder with whom you are getting an issue like : Source: Project\users\ajit\SS.ini Destination: Project\users\Sujit\SS.ini

Answer 3

VSS provides Deploy command which allows you publish files to your web server. You can check the following link for more info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb509340(v=vs.80).aspx
