How to disable Visual Studio automatic deploy

christianacca

I would like to turn off / disable the automatic deploy of the migrations when visual studio starts / builds. I don't see an option for this. Please advice how I can do this.

Motivation:
The application deploys migrations as part of the application startup logic (using the embedded migration options). The automatic deployment in Visual Studio conflicts with this.

Thanks
Christian

I think my question might just well be a dumb one!

I think the solution is to configure VS NOT to start the database project when pressing F5!

Hi Chris,

I'm glad to hear you figured out with our help!

May I also suggest unchecking the Deploy column for your ReadyRoll project(s) in the solution configuration dialog, just in case someone accidentally sets the ReadyRoll projects as the startup project:
