Hi @richardalbrecht,

Thanks for getting in touch.

From the looks of the logs you have sent it looks to me like a release and deployment are being created, but the deployment is failing.

The step “Deploy Title Custody ClickOnce” is failing, can you let me know a little bit more about what that step is doing? The deployment task log for the project TitleCustody version 2019.10.13.7-mainTitleCustody should help troubleshoot what went wrong.

Cheers,
Shane

Exception calling “.ctor” with “2” argument(s): “An Octopus 20:10:25 Error | server URI was not specified.”

It looks like the step is running a PowerShell script that attempts to call Octopus.Client but a server URI is not specific? What does the script look like?

Cheers,
Shane
