Deployment issue all day to day

Mike O'Neill 1

I keep getting the below error when deploting a web app to azure:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error Web deployment task failed. (Web Deploy experienced a connection problem with the server and had to terminate the connection. Contact your server administrator if the problem persists. Learn more at: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=221672#ERROR_CONNECTION_TERMINATED.)

Unexpected end of file has occurred. The following elements are not closed: results. Line 1, position 550. CookieScannerBlazor 0

How do I get round this?

Hi @Mike O'Neill this could be a transient error. How are you deploying your application? What region are you deploying to? Have you tried any other deployment methods?

I was deploying a Blazor Server app, which we have been running successfully live for about 6 months.

I upgraded Visual Studio, which I was using to deploy the app, and the problem seemed to go away, and I successfuly deployed.
However this morning the production app suddenly stopped working, showing repetative 500 errors from the server, presumably SignalR related. It works fine running locally.
If I deploy from another machine, running a previous version of VS, it deploys fine and continues working, but if I deploy from the VC upgraded PC the app fails (with the http statuscode 500 server errors). Am currently stumped, although we can deploy from the older machine.

@Mike O'Neill , just to confirm it seems like you have two separate issues. Your static web app started failing with 500 errors and deploying your code from an upgraded Visual Studio instance results in a deployment failure. But you're able to deploy from a non-upgraded version. Can you include any snippets around HTTP 500 error? Also, what are the two versions of Visual Studio you are using?

Here is the 500 error, you can see it now on scanner.baycloud.com

Request URL: https://scanner.baycloud.com/_blazor/negotiate?negotiateVersion=1
Request Method: POST
Status Code: 500 Internal Server Error

Thanks for the additional context @Mike O'Neill . I didn't hit a 500 error but did use browser developer tools and that request makes a call to a SignalR service. You could be running into server connection issues with your SignalR service. Have a look at [this troubleshooting guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-signalr/signalr-howto-troubleshoot-guide#500-error-when-negotiate-azure-signalr-service-is-not-connected-yet-please-try-again-later] to see if you can better determine the source of the 500. I also came across https://github.com/Azure/azure-signalr/issues/909 which sounds like your situation and is worth look but doesn't have a resolution.

It looks like it was because we were unknowingly still using the free SgnalR service, which limits the number of messages it processes. we just had to upgrade to a paid version.
This definatly needs a better error notification mechanism!
