SharePoint 2019 WSP is not deploying

Question

We have recently created a new SharePoint 2019 farm and deployed our all-solution package (WSP) successfully. While the services were running fine initially, we have encountered a few critical issues:

Timer Service Stopping: One of the timer services stops automatically after a few days, impacting our operations.

WSP Deployment Issues: There have been challenges with deploying the WSP. Occasionally, the deployment does not complete successfully, causing disruptions.

Application Pool Instability: The application pool for our SharePoint services occasionally goes down, leading to temporary outages.

Despite our attempts to resolve these issues internally, they continue to reoccur. Given their impact on our operations, we need to investigate and resolve these problems.

 

Could you please assist in initiating this support request? Here are the key details for reference:

 SharePoint Version: 2019

Servers Details: 2 WFE & 1 Application, 1 DB

Issues: WSP deployment problems,

Actions Taken: Restarted all services, checked logs, and attempted troubleshooting steps such as clearing the cache and restarting the server.

Thank You..

Hi @Imran Patel ,

Welcome to Q&A forum!

This situation is rather complicated and there are many reasons for it.

Here are some additional steps you can try:

Timer Service Stopping

• Ensure that the Timer Service is set to start automatically.
• Check for any scheduled tasks or scripts that might be stopping the service.
• Review the Event Viewer logs for any errors or warnings related to the Timer Service.
