部署到Azure虚拟目录-Web部署任务失败（无法完成对远程代理URL的请求

Question

I'm having issues deploying an asp.net mvc 4 project from the buildserver to Azure.

We have one azure web site (strictly with nothing deployed to it directly), with a number of Apps deployed in virtual directories underneath. It is with these apps / virtual directories I'm having problems deploying to.

I can deploy direct to Azure from within VS using publish profiles, and also from a batch file which uses publish profiles locally, but it sounds like you cannot use publish profiles on a build server, so I'm using the same settings to fire MSBuild with parameters instead.

The error being returned is:

error : Web deployment task failed.(Could not complete the request to remote agent URL 'http://[site].scm.azurewebsites.net:443/MSDEPLOYAGENTSERVICE'.)

Note this first error lists the main site, not the virtual directory, though this is the value from the .pubxml file that works through VS. Other errors listed after the first (above) are..

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\Web\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(3847,5): error : This error indicates that you cannot connect to the server. Make sure the service URL is correct, firewall and network settings on this computer and on the server computer are configured properly, and the appropriate services have been started on the server. 

error : Could not complete the request to remote agent URL 'http://[site].scm.azurewebsites.net:443/MSDEPLOYAGENTSERVICE'.
error : The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.
error : Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

..and the batch file including the msbuild commands & paramaters is..

msbuild projectname.csproj 
/P:Configuration=DevDeployMyApp 
/p:DeployTarget=MSDeployPublish 
/p:DeployOnBuild=True 
/p:MsDeployServiceUrl=[Site].scm.azurewebsites.net:443
/p:AllowUntrustedCertificate=True 
/p:VisualStudioVersion=11.0 
/P:CreatePackageOnPublish=True 
/p:username=[user]
/p:Password=[password]
/p:DeployIisAppPath=[site]/[VirtualDirectoryName]
/p:MSDeployPublishMethod=RemoteAgent 
/p:IgnoreDeployManagedRuntimeVersion=True

Any ideas?

Is your service is already running, try going into the Azure portal and stopping it before publishing. That sometimes helps get it unstuck.
