  The metabase key '/lm/w3svc/apppools/App' could not be found. Reply Contact Hi, I am able to successfully migrate/sync applications from w2k3 (IIS 6.0) to w2k8 (IIS 7.0) when I run MS Deploy commands on w2k3 and using web deployment agent service of w2k8.   But when I was running MS Deploy commands on w2k8 and trying to pull application from IIS 6.0, using web deployment agent service of w2k3, I am not able to migrate applications.   I tried with different provides like manifest, metakey but no luck. I don’t know where I am going wrong.   Command and output I get is as follows. Following command I have executed on w2k8.  C:\Program Files\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy>msdeploy -verb:migrate -source:manifest=C:\Users\someuser\Documents\Apps.xml,computername=w2k3servername -dest:auto -whatif Error:  Object of type 'manifest' and path 'C:\Users\someuser\Documents\Apps.xml' cannot be created The metabase key '/lm/w3svc/apppools/App' could not be found.The type initializer for 'Microsoft.Web.Deployment.AxNative' threw an exception. Failed to loaded the library 'C:\Program Files\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy\axnative.dll'. HRESULT=8007007E.  Error count: 1   Please can anyone help me?   Thanks

  Re: The metabase key '/lm/w3svc/apppools/App' could not be found. Reply Contact Hmm.   Can you try: msdeploy -verb:dump -source:metakey=lm/w3svc/apppools/app,computername=win2k3machine -xml -debug This will tell if anything related to metakey is working right for you.  Also, can you send me any output from the file %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Local\Temp\Msdepsvc.log (from the win2k3machine).  That file contains any exceptions that happened on the remote agent.  Sorry for all the trouble you're hitting.  You're helping the MSDeploy team make the product solid for RTW so your patience is appreciated.

  Re: The metabase key '/lm/w3svc/apppools/App' could not be found. Reply Contact Sorry about my lateness.  This is very odd.  It seems like your setup is incorrect as axnative.dll should be installed in your Web Deployment directory.  Can you dump out the entire c:\program files\iis\microsoft web deploy directory and show me the content.  If axnative.dll does indeed exist, another thing to try would be to download depends.exe from http://www.dependencywalker.com/ and see what the output would be for axnative.dll.  Perhaps it is missing a DLL.

  Re: The metabase key '/lm/w3svc/apppools/App' could not be found. Reply Contact Hi, Thanks a lot for the reply.  I have following files at location "C:\Program Files\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy". Axnative.dll is available at the above path. msdeployconsole.psc1 Microsoft.Web.Deployment.PowerShell.dll-Help.xml msdeploy.exe.configsettings.example Web Deployment Tool Documentation Web Deployment Tool Readme axnative.dll Web Deployment Tool UI.chm MsDepSvc.exe Microsoft.Web.Deployment.dll msdeploy.exe Are you facing any issues if you use "manifest" object type at your end on w2k8 server to migrate application from IIS 6.0? Thanks, Shashi

  Re: The metabase key '/lm/w3svc/apppools/App' could not be found. Reply Contact I don't think the issue is related to manifest (just a hunch).  Can you try to run command locally on the w2k3 box: msdeploy -verb:dump -source:metakey=lm/w3svc/apppools/app -xml If that works, can you try this command, also locally on the w2k3 box: msdeploy -verb:dump -source:metakey=lm/w3svc/apppools/app,computername=localhost -xml

  Re: The metabase key '/lm/w3svc/apppools/App' could not be found. Reply Contact Hi, Thank you so much for all your efforts. I tried with 1st command, it was executing successfully. When I tried with 2nd command it was giving same exception mentioned above. I repaired MS Deploy x86 installation. I restarted 'Web Deployment Agent Service'. AND NOW IT IS EXECUTING 2ND COMMAND SUCCESSFULLY!!!!!   I tried executing command on w2k8 box. And it is now executing successfully.   I really don’t know root cause of this issue but after repairing MS Deploy installation and restarting ‘Web Deployment Agent Service’ on w2k3 box resolve the issue.   Thanks, Shashi
