iisteamcitywebdeploy

I deploy website through Teamcity using webdeploy method:

web.csproj /P:Configuration=%env.Configuraton% /P:DeployOnBuild=True
/P:DeployTarget=MSDeployPublish
/P:MsDeployServiceUrl=%env.DeployServiceUrl%
/P:AllowUntrustedCertificate=True /P:MSDeployPublishMethod=WMSvc
/P:CreatePackageOnPublish=True /P:UserName=%env.DeployUserName%
/P:Password=%env.DeployPassword%

The error I recieve constantly:

[MSDeployPublish] VSMSDeploy (35s) [VSMSDeploy] C:\Program Files
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.5\Web\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(4196,
5): error ERROR_EXCEEDED_MAX_SITE_CONNECTIONS: Web deployment task
failed. (The maximum number of connections for this site has been
exceeded. Learn more at:

On Teamcity agent installed Visual Studio 2010 Express, .netf framework version: 4.0

I have fixed this problem by restarting the Web Management Service in Services.

Config Error: This configuration section cannot be used at this path

I had the same problem. Don't remember where I found it on the web, but here is what I did:

Click "Start button"
in the search box, enter "Turn windows features on or off"
in the features window, Click: "Internet Information Services"
Click: "World Wide Web Services"
Click: "Application Development Features"
Check (enable) the features. I checked all but CGI.

btw, I'm using Windows 7. Many comments over the years have certified this works all the way up to Windows 10 and Server 2019, as well.

Visual-studio – Web deployment task failed. Could not connect…server did not respond

I had the same problem with Web Deploy 3.5 when I installed it with "Web Platform Installer 5.0"

When I tried to publish from Visual Studio I got this error:

Microsoft Visual Studio

Could not connect to the remote computer ("10.0.3.102") using the specified process 
("Web Management Service") because the server did not respond. Make sure that the process

The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.

I double checked the services, both was running. I switched off the firewall also and still the same error.
