Had a failure performing an archive operation. My suspicion is that the dots in the web site name are causing trouble. Any comments?
Command:
C:>"C:\program files\Microsoft web deploy\msdeploy.exe" -verb:sync -source:metakey=/lm/W3SVC/1199109923,metaDataGetInherited=true,computerName=http://web01-d:81/msdeploy -dest:archivedir=configuration
End of log from operation:
Action: Adding child dirPath (D:\InetPub\wwwroot\titan\dev.configuration.socsuite.com) Fatal: Sync operation 'AddChild' failed with destination metaProperty (/lm/W3SVC/1199109923/root/Path) Fatal: File system path 'configuration\Content\D_C\InetPub\wwwroot\titan\dev.configuration.socsuite.com' in not valid.

Please try executing the command with full path to the archive directory like archivedir=d:\archive

Thank you; that fixed the problem...
I simply changed archivedir=xyz to archivedir=%cd%\xyz
