Translation

To manually upgrade an existing ASP.net MVC2 project to asp.net MVC3 (RC), we need the following steps:

1. Create a new ASP.net MVC3 project, we will use some of the files included in the upgrade.

2. Copy the following files from the new project to the existing ASP.net MVC2 project, which are:

· /scripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.js

· /scripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js

· /scripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js

· /scripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js

· /views/web.config

3. If your existing ASP.net MVC2 project contains a number of area, you need to replace the/views/web.config file with the original file in all area.

4 in the project's Web.config file (there are three in the web.config in the root directory, 4 in the Web.config file under the Views folder) to search for and replace the following:

SYSTEM.WEB.MVC, VERSION=2.0.0.0→SYSTEM.WEB.MVC, version=3.0.0.0

5. Delete the SYSTEM.WEB.MVC reference in the solution browser (because it refers to a large dll in asp.net MVC2) and then add a reference to SYSTEM.WEB.MVC (v3.0.0.0). Then refer to System.WebPages.dll and System.Web.Helpers.dll separately.

6. Right-click the project name in the Solution Explorer and select Uninstall Project. Next, right-click the project name and select Edit Projectname.csproj.

7. Locate the Projecttypeguids node in projectname.csproj and replace {f85e285d-a4e0-4152-9332-ab1d724d3325} with { E53F8FEA-EAE0-44A6-8774-FFD645390401}.

8. After you save the changes in step 7th, right-click the item and reload it.

9. Add the following two to the Assemblies node in Web.config in the application root directory

10. If the project references other Third-party libraries that are compiled in collaboration with DLLs in ASP.net MVC2, you need to make the following changes

Success, enjoy the charm of asp.net mvc.
