Ive been trying to use Visual Studio Online's new build definitions with linux. I set up an Azure VM running CentOS 7.1 installed Nodejs (v0.10.36) and npm (v3.3.9) the prerequisites for the vNext build agent.
when running the vsoagent.js file to set up the agent and filling in the fields, i am able to connect to my VSO account successfully but the build agent doesnt start.
following is the console output i get:
Console output
Im getting a bad request (400) error, why is this occuring and how do i fix it?
You need to set some permissions before you can add and run a new agent. First, you need to enable alternate credentials for your account. Log in to VSO using your account and open your profile settings.
Then, go to the “Credentials” tab and enable your alternate credentials there.
After that, go back to the “Agent pools” administration page, go to Roles tab, there are two security groups there. You’ll need to add your account to both.
•Agent Pool Administrators: allows adding agent to pool
•Agent Pool Service Accounts: allows the agent to listen to the build queue
When you create the server, you'll need to login using the credentials you provided when creating the virtual machine. More steps of creating a Build.vNext agent on Linux, please check http://realalm.com/2015/06/26/creating-a-build-vnext-agent-on-linux/
From the screenshot you provided, you got bad request with the URL.
And the server URL you need to provide should be something like: https://servername.visualstudio.com

How can we force an IIS app pool to go into Unknown state? Is there a way to do this through the inetmgr GUI or through power shell ? I want to test a script that I'm writing, based off the Unknown state of my IIS app pool
As far as I know, if you log into the IIS server machine with non-admin account, then go to inetsrv folder and run "appcmd.exe list apppool" in command prompt ,you will get unkown state like below:
And before that you may need to add this non-admin user access permission to the config folder.
By the way, are you trying to test Powershell session? using "Get-IISapppool" in powershell with non-admin account will also get an empty state showing.
I am trying to install SQL Data Sync Agent 2.0 but I got this install error
I am running virtual machines with Hyper-V.
I tried in a windows server 2016 and a windows 10. Up to date.
I added the account to log as a windows service.
What could be the issue?
Thanks
I have fixed this issue by adding Computer-name in front of the Username.
Make sure the following,
Username and password are correct.
Prefix the computer name along with the username (Eg: MYPC\user).
You can find the computer name on This PC's properties.
This error occurs in two situations:
User name and/or password are incorrect. Do not use the Windows Live login to install the agent use (create) a local Windows account to install the agent.
The specified user account does not have sufficient privileges to logon as a service, but you told us you did this already. Anyway please verify the following steps:
To Grant logon-as-a-service credentials to the user account please do the following steps:
Navigate to Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy > Local Policy > User Rights Management.
Find and click the Logon as a service entry.
Add the user account in the Logon as a service Properties dialog.
Click Apply then OK.
Close the windows.
Some more suggestions:
Install the client agent using the least privilege account with network service access.
It is best if the client agent is installed on a computer separate from your on premises SQL Server computer.
I got a new computer and I'm trying to publish my website through web deploy in Visual Studio from the new computer but it keeps saying failed due to unauthorized user. I'm using the same visual studio account, the same password. Everything else is identical to what it looks like in the old computer.
Is there something on the azure website that I need to update to allow a new computer to publish? Is the password different from the username/password I login to get into azure portal? There seem to be a lot more **** in my old computer's password input than what's required. I just assumed that it at some point did that for security purposes.
This is the error I get when going to Settings in the publishing window in Visual Studio and when I click Validate Connection:
Connect to the remote computer ("website name" using the Web
Management Service, but could not authorize. Make sure that you are
using the correct user name and password, that the site you are
connecting to exists, and the credentials represent a user who has
permissions to access the site. Learn more at:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=221672#ERROR_USER_UNAUTHORIZED.
The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.
Is there something on the azure website that I need to update to allow a new computer to publish?
No.
Is the password different from the username/password I login to get into azure portal?
Its not different. Its the same.
I have noticed that sometimes, even with everything being correct from our side, VS web deploy to Azure simply may not work. It could a simple connection issue from VS to Azure, in terms of authentication and no fault of yours.
I don't know why VS is giving authentication error, but as an alternative, you could, deploy your site locally to a folder in Visual Studio. Then, deploy the site manually to your site via FTP.

In the long run, you will come to trust FTP deploy than VS deploy which is simply too much of a hassle.
I have setup a azure cloud classic. Where I have two instances running one is web role and orleans silos. I want to enable trace and I need a means to login into the box and see the logs. Azure portal is not providing the logs I needed. I am following the following link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-services/cloud-services-role-enable-remote-desktop but, in the first step, is to click on the cloud service and click configure but I do not see configure option anywhere. I see only 'Pin, swap and delete'. But I did see an option when click on the cloud class, called configuration. In that configuration, there is nothing for remote desk top.
I do have an option for remote desk top, but when I click that I get an message "This deployment is using RemoteAccess and/or RemoteForwarder modules. We recommend using the RDP extension instead. You can enable this mode by removing the modules from your .csdef and .cscfg and then saving your RDP configuration here."
so my basic question, how what is proper way to remote to that box provided I am getting above mentioned message?
According to your description, you are using Azure new portal to configure Remote Desktop. For a simple way, you could log into Azure classic portal to leverage Remote Desktop Extension approach for you to enable Remote Desktop even after your application is deployed.
Note: For more details, you could follow the section about configuring Remote Desktop from the Azure classic portal in this doc.
so my basic question, how what is proper way to remote to that box provided I am getting above mentioned message?
You could follow this tutorial about configuring Remote Desktop in the service definition file.
I am getting error while publishing the 2013 workflow via designer. Also, under sharepoint designer if I try to delete any workflow then the page just refreshes and the workflow does not get deleted.
I checked the services.msc and found that the workflow backend service was stopped. (this happened as the password of the user under which this serivce was running had changed).
So, the network admin changed the service user to LOCAL SYSTEM and started the service.
Now, the workflow backend service is started. We have also ran the iisreset.
However, I am still getting the same error:-
System.IO.InvalidDataException: A response was returned that did not come from the Workflow Manager. Status code = 503: Service Unavailable
Service Unavailable
HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable.
Client ActivityId : ee94689c-4e08-b055-fe9c-268d7a94
Please find attached snapshot.
Is the error as a result of the change in service user? Can you tell me what priviledges should the account running the workflow backend service must have?
UPDATE 1
We have tried to set the account to farm admin and also tried to set it to site admin. Now, for a new web application, I can delete workflows. However, for existing site, I am not able to delete the existing workflows.. Also, I am not able to publish workflows (present under new and previous sites) and the error is same as described earlier.
Open IIS and make sure identify of the WorkflowMgmtPool is correct, you can re-type the identify. Then make this pool is started.
Check and reenter credentials for:-
Open Services.msc, find Service Bus Message Broker service and Windows Fabric Host Service. Make sure they are running. If not, firstly, start Windows Fabric Host Service, then start Service Bus Message Broker service. If Service Bus Message Broker service is started, stop and re-start it.
Reference- this forum link
This error occur because you have not registered the workflow correctly. Re-register the workflow and it will get solved. Also make sure you have activated the App management Service in your site features.

Workflow Manager CU2 to get to 1.0 Refresh in Web Platform installer worked first time for me!
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2902007/en-us
I had this same issue.
I was able to resolve it by going to IIS on my application server, editing the identity on the Workflow Management Application Pool, saving it and restarting it. I also restarted the server.
