我有同样的错误，我改变了设置从发布调试和问题解决。

更进一步说。在创建发布配置文件时，将创建两个文件。

NewProfile.pubxml NewProfile.pubxml.user

当您从源代码控制打开一个在PublishProfile文件夹中包含这些文件的项目时，它只有.pubxml文件，而没有. publicxml文件。用户文件，因此它创建了。publicxml。用户文件在运行时打开项目。 当它创建新的. publicxml . xml时。用户在飞行的XML看起来像:

<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
</Project>

当你创建一个新的配置文件时，它创建的xml看起来像:

<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <LastUsedBuildConfiguration>Release</LastUsedBuildConfiguration>
    <LastUsedPlatform>Any CPU</LastUsedPlatform>
    <TimeStampOfAssociatedLegacyPublishXmlFile />
    <EncryptedPassword />
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>

如果取<PropertyGroup>节点并将其放在.pubxml. xml文件中。用户文件你的PublishProfiles将重新开始工作。

我也有同样的问题，但没有一个答案在这个线程为我工作。我的问题是，有一个目录，其中包含动态生成(由我的应用程序)静态HTML文件。没有发布整个目录。

我找到了适合我的解决方案:

One issue I got a while back and thought I should document was that certain file types were not being uploaded when I published my project. The file types in question were .pdf files and .rtf. The reason this happened was because these file extensions were not recognized as requiring publishing by Visual Studio. Luckily this can be changed in Visual Studio. Select the file(s) that aren’t being copied. In Properties ensure that Build Action is set to Content. If this doesn’t work the following can be tried. Under the Project menu select Package/Publish Web and notice this drop down: Try changing this to All files in this project folder.

同样的问题。解决方法是将发布设置从发布更改为调试。重新发布，然后改回发布…

一个简单的解决方法是删除发布配置文件并创建一个新的配置文件。

当您右键单击解决方案并选择publish时，您就有了一个概要集。删除这个并创建一个新的。

这将解决问题。

从2010年切换到2012年，我就遇到了这个问题

最近在VS 2013的一个MVC项目中，我导入了Umbraco CMS，遇到了同样的问题。我不能出版。上面的答案很有帮助，尽管我需要一段时间来弄清楚我在vs中应该做什么。这需要一些研究，比如在MS博客上找到答案。我试着简单地说:

Choose in the VS toolbar a certain configuration e.g. Release and Any CPU. Run the project. Afterwards right-click in the Solution Explorer on the solution in question, choose Publish. Create a new publishing profile or use a given one, but always make sure that in the settings the same configuration (e.g. Release and Any CPU) is chosen, as before you run the project the last time. Additionally in my case it was necessary to delete the OBJ folder because here the settings from my last unsuccessful tries to publish got stuck, though I restarted VS and deleting all publishing profiles.
