Uploading file only at Root level

Scenario:
Uploading file only at Root level

Solution:
You can package files as feature and then can upload the files using Module tag, also using RootWebOnly=TRUE will ensure that this file get executed on RootWeb only

Code:

 <Module Name="CommonFiles" Url="" Path="" RootWebOnly="TRUE">
<File Url="Dashboard.aspx" Type="Ghostable" />
</Module>

Hi Sandeep..

This is working exactly fine.

And i have one more doubt..

When i am trying to develop a feature in module file i am specifying that IgnoreIfAlreadyExists
attribute to overwrite the files but it is not at all working..


May i know what exactly the problem is......

HI Kancharla ,

I think you need to set another attribute

AlwaysForceInstall = "TRUE" | "FALSE"
