Using TFS 2018 to deploy build to an exist website

Question

I just set up a new TFS CI/CD process for an existing project. How do I set up the release so it would deploy to the existing Site folder in the IIS instead of the Application Pool? Using TFS 2018 release management process. This is not an azure pipeline project

Answer 1

For your situation, you just need to specify the existing Website name in IIS Web App Deploy task step, then it will automatically update the website once any changes are checked in with the CI/CD definitions set.

Assuming the Website name is ApplicationToDeploy , just specify the name under Deployment > Website name

Just need to make sure the website is existing there, you could check this info in IIS manager.
