Hi,

I am using Octo.exe to replicate deployment projects between a staging and a production Octopus instance. After upgrading Octopus to v3.2.19 my replication process started failing with exit code -7:

I am struggling to figure out what is causing the error. Please advise!

Many thanks,

Hi Henrik,

Thanks for the quick response. Do you know which version I need wait for? The bug is assigned to 3.2.21 which is already available. Shall I go ahead and upgrade to 3.2.21?

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Yes the fix was part of 3.2.21. You need to upgrade Octopus Server and not Octo.exe (as it was just the poor messenger). Sorry you ran into this.
