How do i resolve this issue?
I can build the solution ok without any errors and the site displays ok on localhost. MSBUILD also runs ok and on the face of it, i can't see an issue with the output.
Please advise
thanks

Visual Studio 2013/2015 don't support Setup and deployment -projects out of the box. Install extension to enable those:
