I've found that Courier does not always deploy updated dlls to the bin. I have a web application in which I develop my custom pieces for Umbraco (user controls etc). So all the code gets compiled into a single dll. I've found that while Courier is great for deploying items from my dev environment, I sometimes have to still manually copy my updated dll across.
Yeah, the issue is that Courier cannot always determine that the DLL is needed for the transfer to be successfull. You will need to add it manually to the transfer.
you can check the courier.config file under the config folder. Here you can add the files you want to include into your revision package on the fileItemProvider section as follows:
Courier not deploying dll
Hi,

Have anyone else had this experience?
Thanks.
Hi Bob,
Courier will not transfer these dll's automatically, are you adding them manually to the revision?

Hi Per,
Should I want to, how do I add dll's manually to a revision package?
Thanks,

I wonder if there was an answer to this question. Jeavon, if you ever stumble upon this post again, can you highlight how to resolved this issue.
Thanks.
Hi,
you can check the courier.config file under the config folder. Here you can add the files you want to include into your revision package on the fileItemProvider section as follows:
In this way when you build your revision you can include your files choosing them from the Files voice in the content editing page.
