Real Life Scenario, would WebDeploy Help?

argon0 — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 14:41:32 GMT

We have a live web site which has to be live 24x7.... We are currently going through a large rebuild program, and are trying to decide on the best ongoing deployment solution. We regularly have changes which require the site to "recompile" - leading to up to 10 minutes downtime during an update - this is unacceptable. So we need a deployment solution which will lead to a maximum of 1 minutes downtime. So far we think the best way to do this is: 1) set up a 2nd site on the Live IIS 2) Upload all new code to the 2nd site 3) Allow DFS to synchronise all web servers 4) Run recompile on all web servers 5) Test new code/site 6) Manually change IIS to point to the new code rather than the old one. And repeat for each deployment. I can see that webdeploy could help in points 2 & 3 (sync rather than dfs), and possibly 6 to switch over. Are there any other ways that WebDeploy could help, and/or any better/other tools. BTW all running on IIS 6.0 Thanks Argon0

Comparing WDT vs MSI vs SCCM

rodrigob — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 09:44:05 GMT

Hi all,

I would like to get your comments about how to set Web Deployment Tool in the right place, compared to using MSI files created with Visual Studio (Web Setup Projects, in concret) to deploy sites/ASPX apps, or using a robust product such as SCCM to deploy software.

My objective is to know what's the right tool to use for each particular scenario.

Thanks in advance,

Rodrigo

Re: Migrating multiple sites with Web Deployment Tool

rodneym30 — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 14:39:06 GMT

it seems as though the following line would move all of the ftp info over but I would prefer confirmation before I just jump into it. Any info would be greatly appreciated....

msdeploy -verb:sync -source:metaKey=lm/msftpsvc ,computername=Remote1 -dest:lm/msftpsvc

Migrating multiple sites with Web Deployment Tool

rodneym30 — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 18:26:01 GMT

I am sure I am just experiencing a mental lock but am not making sense of how I move dozens of websites from one server running IIS6 to another (also IIS6) using this tool. I see the ability to create the xml file but it is just not making sense at the moment. Here is what I am trying to do with a few examples...

Migrate ftp settings:

- ftp site1

- ftp site2

- ftp site3

Migrate AppPools:

- Default App Pool

- all default application settings

- apppool2

Migrate Websites:

- website1

- website2

- website3

- website4

Replacing values in Web.Config without VS2010 + transforms

Roman Kofman — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 16:43:03 GMT

I am trying to figure out if it's possible to use the command line msdeploy tool to replace the connectionString while doing a "sync" operation. So far, all I'm finding are references on how to do it within VS2010 with transforms. Is there another way?

I think it should be possible with replace rules, but I'm struggling with the syntax to make it work. Any help would be appreciated.

HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found

sasikantt_24 — Mon, 18 May 2009 12:20:41 GMT

Hi

HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found

The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.

I migrated my web service from IIS 6.0 to IIS 7.0 successfully with following steps.

1. I check for dependencies for my web service. I found that web service is dependant on “MyAppPool “

I migrated application using manifest. In manifest I write following things.

</ MyApplication >

2. I use following command to migrate web service.

msdeploy -verb:migrate -source:manifest=D:\ MyApplication.xml -dest:auto,computerName=IIS7.0ServerName

I successfully migrate web service with above steps.

3. When I browse web service I get Http error 404.17 as mentioned above.

Application pool for “MyApplication” is “MyAppPool” after migration. When I change it manually to “DefaultAppPool” everything works fine. But I don’t want to change application pool.

I also tried with changing “Enable 32-Bit Applications” in advanced settings for “MyAppPool” to True. But no luck.

Please help me out, Let me know work around or please guide me if I am doing anything wrong.

Thanks

Change Application Pool to "Classic .Net AppPool" for migrated application.

sasikantt_24 — Sat, 16 May 2009 08:02:33 GMT

Hi,
I have migrated application from IIS 6.0 to IIS 7.0. Default Application Pool for this migrated application is "DefaultAppPool". because of this I am getting Http Error 500.24.

The solution for this problem is, change Application Pool from "DefaultAppPool" to "Classic .Net AppPool". I have done this manually on IIS 7.0 and I am able to browse the site.

I want to know, How can we change application pool when we migrate application using Ms Deploy?

Is there any other work around for Http error 500.24?

Thanks

error requiring encryption?

bill_t — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 17:07:01 GMT

I upgraded from the beta tool, to RC1.

I'm getting the following error when trying to syc up with an archive created with the beta version of the tool:

Action: Adding child metaProperty (/lm/w3svc/1/ROOT/KeyType)
Action: Adding child metaProperty (/lm/w3svc/1/ROOT/UNCPassword)
Error: The property 'value' is marked as secure. An encryption password must be
specified in order to deploy this property.
Error count: 1

The command I'm using is the basic one in the tutorial:

msdeploy -verb:sync -source:metakey=lm/w3svc/1 -dest:archivedir=d:\my_archive

Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Bill
