Pattern Syntax

skarabee — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 09:41:12 GMT

Hi,

Where can i find a practical (brief) explanation of the syntax that can be used in regular expressions ? (the official ema guide is about 180 pages long...) ?

And some examples (as the syntax is not always quite clear to me)

thx

setParam and DestinationVirtualDirectory

marangiv — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 16:42:25 GMT

I have a folder on a file system that contains all the necessary files for my application.

I would like to create a zip package from this folder, so that I can easily deploy my application on different servers.

Given that I need to specify a physical target path for the iis web application, how they should be made manifest.xml and parameters.xml files to allow the tool to accept the setting -setParam:type=DestinationVirtualDirectory?

And what exactly should be the command? What should I put in parameterscope?

Thank you very much

Testing MSDeploy with -whatif

reedcd3231 — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 19:31:58 GMT

I am having a little trouble getting through the verification of the migration behavior part of the instruction for MSDeploy. I have a fairly simple environment; one IIS 6 box that I want to migrate to a new IIS 7 box. I got to the point where you test the migration behavior before actually performing the migration; I used the follwing command:

msdeploy –verb:migrate –source:webserver60,targetName=http://SourceComputername/msdeploy –dest:webserver60 –whatif > msdeploy_test.log

I get the following error that I cant explain and was hoping someone could help me shed some light on:

Fatal: Unrecognized object parameter 'targetName'
Fatal count: 1

I fixed this error by disable the 'script source acces' on the home directory tab.

But the following error appears at the next stap:

Action: Adding child metaProperty (/lm/w3svc/1017621628/root/AccessFlags)
Fatal: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

yaminij,

Thanks for the reply. the problem in the other form did not pass the 'AnonymousUserPass'.

My problem is that the migration to arrchive directory stucks on: DirBrowseFlags

first line: Action: Adding archiveDir (archiveDir)

........

Action: Adding child metaProperty (root/AccessFlags)
Action: Adding child metaProperty (root/AppIsolated)
Action: Adding child metaProperty (root/AuthFlags)
Action: Adding child metaProperty (root/DirBrowseFlags)
Fatal: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Change count: 77629
Fatal count: 1

A strange thing is that not al my sites give this error during migration.

Fatal: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Sader — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 09:49:38 GMT

Hi all,

When I run the following command:

msdeploy -verb:migrate -source:metakey=lm/w3svc/145273373 -dest:archivedir=d:\w3svc\12 -failureLevel:Never

I get the error Fatal: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. What does it mean.....

Also running the command include: -whatif -verboseLevel:Informational >msdeploy.log

I cannot find the explanation of the error. Someone Knows a solution?

regkey problem with forward-whack

mhegyi — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 15:10:19 GMT

I'm trying to use the regkey provider to sync the Cryptographic Algorithms and Protocols (Cipher Suites) for a hardened web server. I'm following http://support.microsoft.com/kb/245030

It sync/dumps the following key fine:

"HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Ciphers\NULL"

It fails to sync/dump the following, or any other node with a forward-whack in it.

"HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Ciphers\RC4 56/128".

It claims that "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Ciphers\RC4 56\128" is invalid.

Please note, it switches the forward-whack to a back-whack.

Is there a way to specify the forward-whack to remain as a forward-whack and not be switched?

sync to multiple destination servers?

tmayo — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 19:03:24 GMT

Using msdeploy.exe is it possible to have a source of 1 server and sync to a destination of multiple servers (i.e. QA to PROD)? any sample syntax / suggestions?

Thanks,

Sync between two IIS7 servers

TrondRoar — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 18:10:04 GMT

I am trying to fig out how to sync 2 servers. Both running IIS7. I started with msdeploy -verb:getDependencies -source:webServer and made sure both has the same services. I then test with msdeploy -verb:sync -source:webServer,computerName=Server1 -dest:webServer -whatif >msDeploySync.log. The log shows me that i get an (401) Unauthorized.

So im trying to fig out how to write the command so that it passes on username and password, but no success.

What i am trying to do is to sync all websites from server1 to server2. And also all content (folders) from d:\www on server1 to D:\www on server2.

If anyone has a tip that can set me of i would appreciate it a lot. Like a command :-)

Changing IP address of bindings during migration

alexthissen — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 14:59:16 GMT

Hi,

Another issue we run into during migration is that the new IIS7 servers use a different cluster IP address in their server binding. So, during migration we would like to replace the old IP address 192.168.0.100 to the new one, say 192.168.0.110. I am pretty sure that a replace rule is what we need, but am not sure on the exact syntax of the -replace option. The documentation that I found was in Chapter 3 of the MS Deploy Walkthroughs

Is the match pattern specified as a regular expression?
Can you perform a global replace if multiple matches are made?
How to specify the ServerBindings attribute for the IIS6 configuration of a particular Web Site in the metabase?

Again, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Alex
