  An item with the same key has already been added. Reply Contact  I am trying to sync a single web app between two different servers using the following command. msdeploy.exe -verb:sync -source:metakey=/lm/W3SVC/1/ROOT/dotnet/WebApp,username=u,password=pw,computername=v2  -dest:metakey=/lm/W3SVC/1/ROOT/dotnet/WebApp,username=u,password=pw,computername=d2 -whatif -verbose > msdeploy.log  When I run it, I get the error "Fatal: An item with the same key has already been added. "  Shouldn't it be writing over this key since it is syncing?

Can you pls see if you have a duplicate isapi/cgi in websvc restriction list and if you do, is it possible for you to remote duplicate entries? -Kanwal-

  Re: An item with the same key has already been added. Reply Contact We removed the duplicate entries and msdeploy ran without errors.  Thank you very much for the help.  However, we seem to be having another issue.  Correct me if I am wrong, but shouldn't the command listed in the first post do a complete copy of the that web application, including files, .NET version, secuirty, app pool, etc?  Running this command doesn't appear to do anything.  Running it along with a dirpath sync seems to copy the files, but the .net version and AppPool remain unchanged. Is something misoperating or is there something else I can do to sync this data.   Thanks, Jake

  Re: An item with the same key has already been added. Reply Contact Hi Jake, AppPool properties only move if you sync lm/w3svc/apppools metaKey. As you are trying to sync a vdir which doesn't include apppool properties, msdeploy is not syncing those. You can try a -verb:dump command to see what all is picked from the source machine to be synced to destination. Also, msdeploy is supposed to be used only for server or site level sync/migration and not for app/vdir. Using it to sync/migrate apps/vdirs is not a supported scenario in GL release. We are looking at supporting that in our next release. -Kanwal-
