I currently use the MSBuild runner in TeamCity for continuous integration on my local server and this works very well. However, I'm having trouble finding a full list of supported command line switches for MSDeploy in the format that TeamCity expects them.
In my 'Parameters' section at the moment I using the following switches:
/P:Configuration=OnCommit
/P:DeployOnBuild=True
/P:DeployTarget=MSDeployPublish
/P:MsDeployServiceUrl=https://CIServer:8172/MsDeploy.axd
/P:AllowUntrustedCertificate=True
/P:MSDeployPublishMethod=WMSvc
/P:CreatePackageOnPublish=True
/P:UserName=Kaine
/P:Password=**********
/P:DeployIISAppPath="OnCommit/MySite"
/P:SkipExtraFilesOnServer=True
/P:DeployAsIisApp=True
All of these seem to work fine and the MSDeploy works as expected.
The trouble comes when I want to add additional parameters.
I've looked up MSBuild parameters and the MSDeploy documentation and I only seem to find command line parameters like these:
msbuild SlnFolders.sln /t:NotInSolutionfolder:Rebuild;NewFolder\InSolutionFolder:Clean
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164311.aspx
It seems that these references for command line arguments don't correspond with the /P: format - for example CreatePackageOnPublish and DeployIISAppPath aren't recognised command line parameters, but they work fine in the TeamCity build process.
Where can I find a full documented list of MSDeploy arguments in the format
/P:Param=Value
Additional info:
There's a list of parameters here:
However this is not a complete list - for example, this list doesn't include DeployAsIisApp or SkipExtraFilesOnServer, which are both parameters that work from the Team City Build.
Also this related question (possibly duplicate): Valid Parameters for MSDeploy via MSBuild which contains some arguments - but still not a definitive list.
