sharepoint administrative server not started causing sharepoint deployment instability
- by Nathan
When i deploy anything to a variety of sharepoint servers i get problems with some packages failing, from what i can see the only error given is as below.
The timer job for this operation has been created, but it will fail because the
administrative service for this server is not enabled. If the timer job is sched
uled to run at a later time, you can run the jobs all at once using stsadm.exe -
o execadmsvcjobs. To avoid this problem in the future, enable the Windows ShareP
oint Services administrative service, or run your operation through the STSADM.e
xe command line utility.
Is this a known problem? I googled for the text but got only one other person with the problem who simply worked round it. I'm trying to batch deploy solutions programmatically and so these errors render the whole code worthless if you have to go back and redo bits by hand afterwards.
Is batch deployment simply not possible?
Thanks!
