Hi, We have been use Octopus deploy for a while. We use the following script to do the swapping of slots:

$ParametersObject = @{targetSlot = “production”}

Invoke-AzureRmResourceAction -ResourceGroupName #{web-app-resource-group} -ResourceType Microsoft.Web/sites/slots -ResourceName #{web-app-target-ui-soar}/Staging -Action slotsswap -Parameters $ParametersObject -ApiVersion 2015-07-01 -Force

This morning, we suddenly run into a problems in this step. It is complaining the following. Any insight would be highly appreciated.

We found the problem. We put in a powershell script module. The module has some syntax errors. The confusing part is that we didn’t know it was from our script module. Would be great if the tool can give more specific feedback.

Thanks anyway.

Hi,

Thanks for getting in touch! I’m glad to hear you were able to sort it out.

You have a good point there actually. I’ve created this github issue to improve logging around those kind of errors: https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/Issues/issues/2662

Thanks!
