Publish Web Application To IIS while having Azure Web Role in Solution

How can i still Publish the Web Application to IIS when this web application is bound to Windows Azure Web Role in the same solution.

When I Right-Click and Publish the Web Application, it generates Folders/Files with missing Web.config file.

I'm Not sure if this is the only missing one !

UPDATE:

i do have the structured web.config of VS 2012 (debug, release) with other web.Debug/Release.config files empty

UPDATE2:

I'm Using Release Configuration with the following Transform

<configuration xmlns:xdt="http://schemas.microsoft.com/XML-Document-Transform">    
    <system.web>
        <compilation xdt:Transform="RemoveAttributes(debug)" />
    </system.web>
</configuration>

Setup a Publish Profile for the Web Application project (right click on the Web Application and use a Local Connection).

  • Publish Method: Local
  • Target Location: http://localhost:<port>/

To publish the Azure Web Role, you right-click on the Cloud Project an "publish".

Also, make sure also that in the properties for web.config, Build Action = "Content" and Copy to Output Directory = "Do Not Copy"
