I have installed Web Deploy 3.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and tried to run remote publish web application through visual studio 2012. However, I got the error - Destination Not Reachable.
I read some post and checked below and still got no luck.
Did I miss anything? Thanks.
This error indicates that you cannot connect to the server. Make sure the service URL is correct,firewall and network settings on this computer and on the server computer are configured properly,and the appropriate services have been started on the server.
MSDeploy is a command-line executable tool created by Microsoft, which implements web deploy functionality with many powerful features. In this article I will present a simple way to publish your web application to IIS by using this tool.
Is Web Deploy installed? You can verify web deploy is installed by going to the "Programs and Features" control panel and looking for "Microsoft Web Deploy 2.0" in the list of installed programs. If it is not there, you can install it via the Web Platform Installer by going to the "Products" tab.
Once the command prompt is up, you will navigate to the folder level where MSDeploy.exe exists. On Windows 7, the default installation will place msdeploy.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy. msdeploy.exe has an extensive command base.
Maybe same issue as in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16708021/msdeploy-wmsvc-not-working ?
It appears you have to activate the web management service first and then install web deploy and i'd done it the other way round. I uninstalled WebDeploy and re-installed it, restarted the server and its working
If you messed with SSL certificates this could be one of the causes as well: https://serverfault.com/questions/613634/could-not-connect-to-remote-computer-web-deploy-error-destination-not-reachable#answer-812712
I also met the same problem. When installing WebDeploy, do not choose classic installation, but choose complete installation.
