Always make a backup prior to changing your system.
The following guide requires the user to have administrative access to the DMS proxy, and the IIS machines local files.
Please ensure you are logged into a user with sufficient access, before commencing.
To backup the IIS servers settings prior to deployment, run the following command in Command Prompt as an Administrator (you MUST right click and select Run As Administrator).
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd add backup "PreMsDeploy”
You should also take a backup of the Almirah/DMS site in File Explorer. Copy this to another location on the drive for safekeeping. This location is C:\inetput\wwwroot\[Site Name]
After the IIS Server has been backed up, you may proceed with the next steps.
Troubleshooting Web Deploy 3.6
If the Deploy menu is missing from IIS, first close IIS, browse to Programs and Features, select Microsoft Web Deploy 3.6 and click Change.
Even though it appears as though the feature is installed, click the button next to IIS Manager UI Module and select Entire feature will be installed on local hard drive. Finish the installation manager and restart IIS.

The dialog will now close, and the new site can now be accessed via the URL, or by clicking the ‘Browse’ option in IIS Manager.
From the site, click the Operational Status screen. This should appear with two green ticks.
Go back to the home screen, then select the Document Sync screen.
Press the ‘Sync Now’ button and ensure this finishes without error.
