The documentation for using my particular combination is either non-existent or thoroughly confusing. I am trying to deploy a very simple MVC (Default.cshtml) test site from Web Matrix 3 (and later from VS 2012) using Web Deploy 3.5. onto one of our netowrk servers running IIS 8. I have not used any of the previous versions of Web Deploy. I need and Idiot Guide for the exact steps. I cannot get past the "Simple HTML page" part of the Publish Compatibilty test - it says "Not Available" and I have no idea why - have read everything I could find - nothing works. If I ignore this "warning" and publish anyway IIS says the site does not exist - does too! I generated one of those .PublishSettings xmls but I forgot how I did it. I have been at this for 3 days - I need some help.
