I could use some assistance. I have a release that keeps failing in Azure, specifically on the Azure App Service Deploy step.

(Note: I am a web designer and currently don't have access to someone who can assist me, all of this was setup by someone no longer with the company.)

I have tried restarting the app service and in the app settings i have MSDEPLOY_RENAME_LOCKED_FILES = 1

screenshot of my error

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thank you!

Here are several approaches you could try:

Approach 1:

You can use Azure PowerShell Task to stop-start App Service and deploy to slots and swap the slot with production.

Stop-AzureRmWebApp -ResourceGroupName "RG_Name" -Name "App_Service_Name"
Start-AzureRmWebApp -ResourceGroupName "RG_Name" -Name "App_Service_Name"

Approach 2:

You could upgrad to 4.* task version and use RunFromPackage to deploy. Please note that this makes the package folder read only. For more information go through this article.

Approach 3:

You can use the curl command provided here to use the Zip Deploy command. You can also pull from the repo and upload the task to your account.

For more details, you could refer to this issue.
