Deploying Changes to an ASP.NET Site
I deployed changes to a site, and it turns out I had an error in the configuration file. I made a change, deployed the new file, and still had an error. I tried to figure out what it was; the error messaged showed the new configuration file, but still had the same previous error. In deploying all my ASP.NET pages, it reloaded the compiled files for the pages, and used the new configuration, correcting the problem. I had remembered some about this from reading Dino Esposito's book; because the site wasn't recompiled, it was still using my previous configuration file. Still seems strange though.
