Could not connect to remote computer web deploy ERROR_DESTINATION_NOT_REACHABLE
A comment on this answer at stackoverflow got me on the right track with this same error message if anyone else comes across this and the other answers don't help: https://stackoverflow.com/a/13871041/1128742.
Not only does web deploy need to be installed, but the IIS Deployment Handler subitem needs enabled. Open up Add/remove programs > Microsoft Web Deploy > Change > make sure IIS Deployment Handler is Enabled.
Web deploy was working for us then we applied some windows updates and it stopped working suddenly, this was the culprit.
I had the same problem (404). Fixed it by:
- Uninstalled Web Deploy 3.6 from Programs & Features
- Downloaded x64 package from https://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/web-deploy#additionalDownloads
- Installed downloaded MSI package, which turned out to be Web Deploy 3.5.
Immediately (without a restart) this resolved the issue.
I've just had similar problem. It was due to messing with SSL certificates.
During the installation of WebDeploy you normally install Management Service which creates self-signed certificate named: WMSvc-HOSTNAME.
This certificate should be available in Certificate Store:
and should be visible in IIS under Server Certificates:
Since I was messing with it somehow WMSvc-HOSTNAME was available in Certificate Store and disappeared from Server Certificates in IIS.
The problem was that Management Service was configured to use WMSvc certificate:
Solution:
Create new Self-signed SSL certifcate and used it with Management Service instead of WMSVC one.
