  Why I have to run the msdeploy twice to make rename rule working Reply Contact I want to rename different config files into web.config, Here is my rule of renaming qa.config into web.config <rule name="MYQA" enabled="false"         type="Microsoft.Web.Deployment.DeploymentReplaceRule" isDefault="true"         objectName="filepath" targetAttributename="path"         match="qa.config" replace="web.config"/> <rule name="MYPROD" enabled="false"         type="Microsoft.Web.Deployment.DeploymentReplaceRule" isDefault="true"         objectName="filepath" targetAttributename="path"         match="prod.config" replace="web.config"/>     Here is my command MSDeploy.exe -verb:sync -source:contentPath=C:\1abc  -dest:contentPath=C:\2abc  -enablerule:MYQA   I am puzzuled by the result.  When I run the command for the first time, all files are copied, but MYQA rule doesn't trigger If I run the command again, then rules kicks in. Is there anything I did wrong?   Thanks

  Re: Why I have to run the msdeploy twice to make rename rule working Reply Contact Thank you for your response. My directory structure is indeed super simple test site, just a root with two sub folder. Root: c:\1abc (root folder with 6 files and 2 sub -folders) qa.config prod.config dev.config web.config test.htm test.aspx c:\1abc\admin (a sub folder with 6 files ) qa.config prod.config dev.config web.config test.htm test.aspx  c:\1abc\user (another sub folder with 6 files ) qa.config prod.config dev.config web.config test.htm test.aspx

  Re: Why I have to run the msdeploy twice to make rename rule working Reply Contact From your output, it does look like the MYQA rule did kick in on the first sync. As per the MYQA rule, all the qa.config files should become web.config files. If you look at c:\2abc after your first sync, you should only find web.config files, which is what you expect. But again, since you already have a web.config file under the same path, it might get overwritten. You can do a -verbose to see how its getting overwritten.
