Deployment to EP - Microsoft Dynamics AX could not locate the Web server. Verify that Enterprise Portal is installed on the Web server.

Posted on by Sylvryd 935

I am setting up a ax DEV VM.

I have everything installed on the same machine (AOS, Client, BC, SQL, SSRS, SP Foundation, & EP).

AX is using the demo contoso database running on AX 2012 R2 CU6.

I am new to Enterprise portal and I am trying to deploy some custom EP code that was already developed by another team member into EP.

When deploying in my environment for the first time using System Administration > Setup > Enterprise Portal > Deployments the process runs for 3-4 minutes and then prompts an infolog message with the following:

Microsoft Dynamics AX could not locate the Web server. Verify that Enterprise Portal is installed on the Web server. If Enterprise Portal is installed, verify that the server is available on the network.

 

I can access the EP site created during the AX installation no problem and the sites setup in AX under EP looks correct. My site being http://AxServer/sites/DynamicsAx

 

Any thoughts?

    Hello Brendan,

    I have the same issue when trying to deploy to Enterprise Portal, I get the exact same error message that you've posted.

    I followed your suggestion to increase the TimeOut.

    However, I still get the same error; the issue isn't solved.

    Please let me know if you're aware of any other way of solving this issue.

    Thanks,

    Raghu

    I was able to find some help on this issue.

    The issue was the deployment timing out.

    I added the following to the web.config file of the EP Deployment Service

    <system.web>

    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="3600"/>

    </system.web>

    The default location for the deployment service on the AOS machine is

    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Setup\EPDeploymentService\web.config"
