SharePoint - Solution deployment problem

Asked By John S

17-Nov-09 10:37 AM

I have deployed a solution on our MOSS2007 farm and although it appears to have
worked, the Solution Management page is still showing it as Deploying.

How can we stop what it is doing?

We have also sometimes seen that deployment and retraction jobs can go on for
ages. Check that the Sharepoint timer service is actually running on all
machines in the farm; we have had cases where it for some reason had stopped.

If it is running on all machines, and still stuck, check the list over timer
jobs in central admin. There should be one for your deployment operation;
remove it and try deployment again.

Hi Js,

As for the solution package, are you using visual studio add-on to build
and deploy it or manually use command line to deploy it? Generally have you
install and deploy the solution, there will have timer job created in the
center admin to synchornize the solution package to the target server:

==================
wspbuilder

stsadm -o addsolution -filename simplewsssolution.wsp

stsadm -o deploysolution -name simplewsssolution.wsp  -immediate
-allowgacdeployment -allowcaspolicies -url http://localhost:8888

stsadm -o execadmsvcjobs
====================

As Chris mentioned, if you have executed all the command, it is possible
that the timer job is not executed in time for a certain server.

You can try reexecuting jobs or redo the solution deployment(clean and
deploy again).

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng
