    Best practices for live deployment

    So typically, what I do when I deploy a site to the live environment is the list below. Anything else I need to remember?

    - In the web.config I change the connection string to the new database environment. I SHOULD really encrypt the database credentials.
    - Set umbracoDebugMode to false
    - Set umbracoDisableVersionCheck to false (I can decide for myself when it is time to upgrade and don't want editors to be seeing the upgrade pop-up).
    - In the system.web section I set custumerrors mode="RemoteOnly" so I can still debug when logged into the server

    Anything else I need to consider?

    Don't forget to install the ASP.NET security fix.

    Well, that's just a Windows Update away right now, so it should be installed on all servers right now!
