Azure web apps: Warning about an "auto-swap lock file"

Question

I'm using Octopus Deploy to deploy a web application to Azure web apps. I'm using the deployment slots with auto-swap feature to warm the app up before making it accessible.

Now Octopus Deploy issues a warning after every deployment:

An auto-swap lock file from a previous deployment was detected and deleted.

Is this a problem? If not (which I suspect), how can I disable the warning?

Answer 1

After some investigation, this appears to be an Azure bug. We are working on a fix, but for now you can safely ignore the warning.
