Great guide, do you have any idea why we're getting this error after doing changes and trying to deploy? social.msdn.microsoft.com/.../6dd861fa-3ebc-471e-8720-1cb98eb298d3

I just installed the sdk (I'm using VS Pro 2012 on a win 7 machine), but when I try to publish I get an error "the following exception was thrown trying to publish: object reference not set to an instance of an object". I've rolled back the sdk and reinstalled, as well as re-installing the lightswitch module in VS: any other ideas?

LS looks great, as if someone at MS remembered the idea of user productivity. But Azure is driving me nuts. I'd like to try and host a LS app that uses MYSQL data; works from my desk, but frankly the Azure stuff looks far too messy and unlikely to work as I look at the publishing choices. Can someone tell me that Azure will host a LS app that uses off site data ? If I know this I'll plod on with Azure. (I'm using LS 2011)

@SteveHiggon - The HTTPS settings have been moved to the publishing wizard's "Security settings" section. For more information on what's new in deployment as of RC see: blogs.msdn.com/.../lightswitch-iis-deployment-enhancements-in-visual-studio-11.aspx

HTH,

Great article - but you used to be able to control whether you could access the site via HTTP or HTTPS previously. It appears as though that has gone from the development tools? If I wanted to do this in the future how is this achieved?
