I tried to uninstall workflow manager for SharePoint 2013 on Server 2012
I removed Workflow Manager for Client from Control Panel.
This message appear after I tried to uninstall Workflow Manager from Control Panel: "This computer is part of a farm. To uninstall, first leave the farm either using 'Leave from Farm' option in Configuration Wizard or Remove-WFHost cmd-let in PowerShell"
I tried both, the error message appear: "The Remove-WFHost was found in the module WorkflowManager, but the module could not be loaded"
Then I tried run "Import-Module WorkflowManager", the error message: "could nott load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Workflow.Cliend. version 1 ....'"
Reinstall the Workflow Manager Client and then you can remove Manager from the farm. It's a finicky beast and you need to make sure and follow the directions at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3135625/how-to-unconfigure-uninstall-install-and-reconfigure-workflow-manager

I'm running BizTalk 2016 Developer edition with Feature Pack 2 and CU3. I've configured a Receive location to pull from a SharePoint 2013 library but I'm seeing the following in the event log:
The adapter "Windows SharePoint Services" raised an error message. Details "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SharePoint.Client, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.".
The following suggests this should have been installed to the GAC as part of the BizTalk installation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/biztalk/core/csom-sharepoint-services-adapter . I can't find the assembly on the BizTalk VM.
I've read that Windows Identity Foundation must be installed on the BizTalk Server if using SharePoint CSOM. Server manager was showing that it was installed, although the tick is in a grey box that can't be un-ticked. I ran the PS Remove-WindowsFeature Windows-Identity-Foundation and then added it again using Server Manager - it's now showing with a "full tick". Didn't fix the problem though :(
Anyone else hit this problem?
I was able to solve this by installing the SharePoint Client Components SDK from the following site: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=35585
Be sure to restart the host instance of the receive location after installing.
I'm trying to migrate our existing TFS 2008/SharePoint installation to TFS 2012/SharePoint 2010. If I do it without SharePoint it all works OK, but if I try and include SharePoint it fails.
At the moment I'm starting from scratch and including SharePoint.
I've run the Configure Extensions for SharePoint Products Wizard, restored the TFS 2008 databases, run STSADM from the command line, and now I'm attempting to run the TFS 2012 Upgrade Wizard: it fails at the, Configure the Server Running SharePoint step with the error "TF250004: The SharePoint Products installation is either corrupt or is not valid. Verify that SharePoint Products is a supported version and is functioning properly, and then try again."
Can someone please advise me what I've done wrong?
It seems that your TFS server can't detect you SharePoint .
Where is your Sharepoint server, is it running on the same computer with TFS server or on another machine?
With your upgrade ,did you change your hardware or use the same hardware as before.
Accroding to your description, you didn't mention whether you need to upgrade your SharePoint. You should finish SharePoint upgrade before your TFS server upgrade.And match TFS upgrade requirements https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/dd631912(v=vs.120).aspx
You should also pay attention to your sharepoint permission.I suggest you use a "Full Permission" Account in sharepoint which interact with TFS .For your reference:http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sr/tfsadmin/thread/ea2ef379-dd14-4e23-86e6-fbc156e430d8
I eventually unchecked the "Configure SharePoint Products for Use with Team Foundation Server" option to exclude SharePoint during the upgrade and then manually configured SharePoint after the upgrade, overcoming a host of problems along the way.
I had a working IIS 7.5 with Web Deploy 3.5 configuration such that the "Import/Export Application" feature in the right hand action pane showed up and functioned properly. Unfortunately I had to remove and reinstall IIS, and now the Import/Export functionality does not show up in the Actions pane, as if Web Deploy was not installed.
I tried to reinstall using the automated installer at http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/web-deploy, but when I run it, the installer seems to think that Web Deploy is already installed and does not offer me any reinstall/uninstall option.
How can I force a reinstall of WebDeploy or force IIS to recognize that Web Deploy is still installed?
Go to http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/web-deploy
Scroll to the bottom of the page to the "Download Web Deploy" header
Click the x86 or x64 link next to your language of choice. Do not click the WebPI link.
Once downloaded, click on the installer to open it.
Click Next
Click the Remove button
Now you can reinstall it using the Web Platform Installer, or just use the standalone.
On a side note...
If you don't see the Deploy options in IIS once you've reinstalled Web Deploy, try running IIS as Administrator. Hope this helps.
I am running IIS on my development machine on Windows 7. Web Deploy 3.6 seem to break something as the Import / Export Application options are not available. Had to uninstall 3.6 via control panel add/remove programs and then install 3.5 via Web PI.
I've installed Web Deployment Tool 2.1 then restart IIS Manager and the Import/Export Application appeared.
I was running a 'gallery template' Windows Server 2012 VM on Azure. Web Platform Installer said Web Deploy 3.5 was already installed. At first I thought this neat feature had been removed/moved.
In Add/Remove Programs, saw that Web Deploy 3.6 Beta was installed. Removed it and reinstalled 3.5 (without SQL stuff) via Web PI.
Ran IIS Manager as admin and all works fine.
Update - A new Azure VM also had this problem, but had 3.6 Beta3 installed. Again, removed and reinstalled 3.5 via WebPI.
None of the other answers here fixed this for me with Visual Studio 17 on Windows 10. The fix was here: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/230372/web-deply-40-msi-location.html
Web Deploy 4 has moved to be distributed with Visual Studio 2017. This is nuts because the Web Deploy service and the Import/Export tools are for server administrators and not devs. The discussion in the link says they are working on adding Web Deploy 4 to the Web Platform Installer, but have encountered a few issues (read: we didn't create a proper deployment for it the first place.)
The fix for me was to uninstall Web Deploy 4 from Control Panel-Apps & features, then reinstall from the MSI provided with Studio. Look in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Packages for a folder like Microsoft.VisualStudio.WebDeploy.Msi,version=...,chip=x64. The MSI file is within that. More detail in the link I mentioned.
My guess is if the IIS Manager is not turned on at the time Studio (and therefore Web Deploy) is installed, the hook for Import/Export can't be created.
My situation is slightly different as I never had the import/export menus. For what it's worth:
I tried to install the Web Deploy installer. It said that a newer version was installed. I tried repairing Web Platform Installer. Nothing changed. I tried changing but was told there were individual components. I tried uninstall/reinstalling WebPlatformInstaller.
After that, the IIS Manager showed a Web Platform Installer icon under the Management section after restarting, but still no Deploy menu on the right click.
Double-clicking that icon started the installer where I could then search for web deploy. There was a Web Deployment Tool 2.1 that was not installed. Clicking Add then Install and restarting IIS Manager (not run As Administrator) was all that was needed to get the Deploy menu:
According to this Microsoft document, the Web Platform Installer should have started automatically. Never did. But it is in the start menu. The steps are the same weather you start it from IIS Manager or standalone.
I downloaded Visual Studio 2012 yesterday when it was released on MSDN. I have noticed that a few of the project types that we had in 2010 are gone or different. The biggest difference for me right now is the removal of the Windows Installer project. Now we are being forced to use the InstallShield LE (Limited Edition). The problem here is that I write a ton of Windows Services and I can't see how to setup InstallShield LE. It appears that we (my company) will have to invest in licenses for the professional edition.
Has anyone found a way to install services in InstallShield LE? When using the Windows Installer project, you just set the custom actions.
For Visual Studio 2012 & InstallShield LE, do the following:
Run through the InstallShield project assistant and add the primary output of your service to the Application files section.
After you are done with the project assistant, double click the "Files" item under step two of the setup project.
Right click on the primary output of your service, and go to properties.
Click the "COM and .NET Settings" tab, and place a check in the "Installer Class" checkbox.
Click Ok
Now, once you build and run your install, your service will show up in the Windows Services snap in.
Note that this assumes you added a "Project Installer" to your service project (Right click on the service design sheet and click "add installer"). I can confirm this work on Windows 8 with Visual Studio 2012 / InstallShield LE.
I've recently installed VS 2012 with Install Shield LE. At first I kept getting a ISEXP -5036 internal server error after a build (this was after setting up a ISLE project and running through the Install Shield Project Assistant). Eventually I found out that it was trying to create the MSI in the DVD-5 media type which is where it was failing. For some reason, creating the solution again from scratch somehow recognizes to only build to the CD_ROM and SingleImage media types which works.
Anyway to rectify the 5036 error, click the Build tab in VS 2012 (top menu), select configuration manager and you should see that your IS setup file is selected on the DVD-5 configuration. Change this to CD_ROM and click close. Once you build/rebuild it will complete with no IS 5036 error.
While using the installer class checkbox may work for some instances, you may experience the following error:
Error 1001.The specified service already exists
Here is an excerpt from this link on how to resolve this issue:
For Error: Error 1001.The specified service already exists
This error will occur if the component installing a .NET Service is
incorrectly configured with ".NET Installer Class" set to Yes. The
method to install a .NET Service is to use Component\Advanced
Settings\Services view, not the ".NET Installer Class" setting.
Making definitions in the Component\Advanced Settings\Services view
creates entries in the Windows Installer ServiceControl and
ServiceInstall Tables. These entries are used by the Windows
Installer "InstallServices" action to install the Service.
If your project is .NET, then try then you can use the ServiceProcessInstaller class with InstallShield LE.
To get it to work with InstallShield, you have to go into the InstallShield "files" tree and right click on your file. Then check the checkbox for "Installer class" on the "COM and .NET settings" tab.
I have gotten it to work, but I've had problems on some OS's like Windows 2008R2. Your mileage may vary.
Here is an example: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/14353/Creating-a-Basic-Windows-Service-in-C
I had all sorts of problems with this.
As follows.
InstallShield takes ages to download
the registration process is a pain.
the configuration options are confusing and overly complex.
the accepted solution on this thread is a hack and it doesn't always work - see 1001 in the documentation - essentially you need to get through the paywall to get the right configuration options to install a windows service.
Solution for me as mentioned elsewhere - was to abandon InstallShield
Very easy from that point.
Edit: Update - install the latest version from here https://wix.codeplex.com/releases/view/115492 for vs 2013 / 2015
Visual Studio setup projects are back in VS 2013 as a visual studio extension.
https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/9abe329c-9bba-44a1-be59-0fbf6151054d
Please update your solution and projects to VS 2013. If you are still in VS 2010, you are probably better off by upgrading directly to VS 2013.
My experience with Installsheild LE is that it is very quirky but once you figure out the tricks, it is easier to use. However, I think that the limited edition is a way by Microsoft and Flexera to sell the fully featured edition. In other words, first we pay Microsoft a lot of money for Visual Studio and then their partner (in crime) more for Installsheild. Bad strategy which did not work out since they had to bring back the setup projects in VS 2013.
I've written about this subject:
Augmenting InstallShield using Windows Installer XML - Windows Services
Basically you create a merge module using WiX to encapsulate the service and then add it to your installshield project. ( Be sure to associate to the INSTALLDIR directory to make sure your file goes where you expect ). Build and test on a VM. Piece of cake.
I'm using VS2012 and Installshield LE Spring Edition. I did not have to use Wix.
If you encounter the error "Could not create _isconfig.xml for use with InstallUtilLib.dll", please create a folder with the same name as your setup project and inside the setup project folder.

I just got some problems finding where to add installer as referred in the answer. So here it is how.
Double click on your service class within your Windows service Project
A blank screen with the text "To add components to your class, drag them from the Toolbox and use the Properties window to set their properties..."
Right click anywhere but on the links and select "Add Installer"
see ya
Bear in mind that all the above explanation will not help you if you plan to create later an upgrade of that setup. InstallShiled LE can't stop the running service when you upgrade. You can't do it either from Window Service Installer -> BeforeInstall event.
Wanted to put this here;
On VS 2015, when doing this, I ran into the 1001 error upon installation repeatedly.
Answer on this page explained that on the newer versions (anything past 2012), apparently you need to explicitly leave the installer class option unchecked, and then add your windows service under the Services section under Step 3 of the installer project:
Error 1001 when installing custom Windows Service
Trying to deploy a mvc package, but looking at the instructions here:
http://vishaljoshi.blogspot.com/2009/07/importing-web-package-into-iis-manager.html
I do not see the "Manage Packages" option visible when I got to IIS Manager->Default Web Site
This is 2008R2 vanilla...
What am I doing wrong?
I was having this same problem. What I did to solve this in Windows 7 was:
Go to Add or remove programs
Search for Microsoft Web Deploy 2.0
Uninstall it (it was already installed on my machine)
Download the Microsoft Web Deploy 2.0 installation package here.
Run the installer as Administrator
Then go to Start -> Search programs and files and type InetMgr.exe hit enter and finally find the Deploy section under the Actions pane in IIS.
