Failed to deploy web package to App Service on Azure DevOps

Question

Since Friday the 22nd of November, I have an issue to deploy updates on my WebApp. Only the code was updated, the release definition is the same since many months.

Here are the logs:

Did you notice something too? Do you know how to fix it?

Answer 1

I had a similar problem, for me, it was the Node.js version in my Azure Web app environment variables.

WEBSITE_NODE_DEFAULT_VERSION needed to be updated. Went from 6.9.1 to 8.5.3.

Answer 2

Thanks to Sergey Nosov on the MS forum:

In the Function App, go to the "Deployment Center" blade, and click on the "Disconnect" button on top.

After that re-run the release pipeline.

Worked for me....

Answer 3

Check that there is a variable 'WEBSITE_WEBDEPLOY_USE_SCM' set in Application settings of Azure App Service.

If it does not exist add it. Make sure that it is set to true.

After that restart the App Service. Wait 20 seconds, then redeploy your application.
