Thank's Chris,

 

Do you think it's possible to execute the .bat when you start the publish ? With some deploy parameter ?

Fred.

Not that I am aware of .. however, that would be a great enhancement IMHO. That is to have a PRE & POST deployment feature in SNAP that would allow for those operations. However, I am not sure how feasible that would be on a "Remote" IIS Server. For a local-host IIS server though , that would be OK for the SD developer for their unit testing refresh deployments. However again ... I would just run my local BAT file for that after an IIS Web API deployment for now. HTH

Hi Frédéric;

   That's a side effect of the way IIS "caches" various files to obtain better performance. Due to that feature after a deployment you must perform an IIS "restart" to have it drop the cached files & then pick-up the new deployed files.

   Note that this was always the case with a PowerServer 2020 Web or Mobile deployment. The same is true now with the new PowerServer 2021 Restful WEB API deployment as well. 

   Tip: You can automate the IIS restart with a .Bat file using for example: " iisreset /restart ". There are also other DOS commands that will do the job as well. A little Googling will expose those other options as well.  HTH

Regards ... Chris

Hi Mike .. FYI: I believe that Frédéric is talking about PS2021 and//or SnapDevelop "Web API's" using the "Publish" feature. Not PS2020 web app deployment. ;-)

Chris, i was replying what you wrote, which makes it seem like it always worked that way:

FWIW: From my decade plus of IIS experience, I have always had to refresh IIS after major *existing* app changes to avoid active users that are running the same app concurrently. Maybe it just my different experiences on super large systems. ;-)
