I am confused about '1 Solution, Multiple Web Projects' problem. I am using Visual studio 2013 , asp.net (c#). Under 1 solution i have a class library and 2 Web projects.

It works well but now when i deploy it on live server then how a user will open these different projects.

e.g. Solution 1 > Project1 and Project2

both are web projects then how i will call each .aspx page under each project ? having same address like www.user.com/

First off all set a project as start-up project and inside that call other projects present at the solution . And then deploy the solution all projects gets called as the requirement of the user . Make sure you have made that project as start-up one which contains your start-up pages required for allpication .

You have a couple of options that might work depending on your requirements. But it really depends on if the two projects are independent from one another or if they share a parent child relationship.

1. You can add a reference from Project 2 into Project 1 and then use post build events to copy the content to folders inside Project 1.

Example:
xcopy /s /y /d "$(ProjectDir)Comments\*.ascx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\Comments\"

2. Another option would be to deploy both project to the server, but make a virtual folder for Project 2 under Project 1. In this case you would need to copy the Project 2 assembly to the bin folder for Project 1.
