Hello!
I'm in a new position and have been tasked with decommissioning the 2003 servers that are in place. The first one I am tackling is a 2003 web server. I will be moving the 2 sites on this server to Server 2012 R2 with IIS8. It's running IIS 6 and in my research, came across the Web Deployment Tool to accomplish this migration.
It actually seems pretty straight forward, and when running the -whatif for the migration, I'm getting a warning message. Is this something I should be concerned about? Is the FrontPageServerExtensions something that is no longer supported on 2012 R2 w/ IIS 8?
This is the command I'm running on the 2012 R2 server:
msdeploy -verb:sync -source:metakey=lm/w3svc/1919441769,computername=previousIISserverNAME.domain.local -enableLink:AppPoolExtension -dest:metakey=lm/w3svc/5 -whatif > msdeploysync-RTS.log
And this is the error:
Warning: The DependencyCheckInUse rule handler detected FrontPageServerExtensions, but the Web Deploy does not support configuring it on the destination computer.
Thanks in advance for all your help.
