Question

I am trying to deploy a SharePoint solution using following power-shell commands, i tried both commands:

Install-SPSolution -Identity solutionname.wsp -AllwebApplications -GACDeployment -Force
stsadm -o deploysolution -name solutionname.wsp -url <myurl> -immediate -force -allowgacdeployment

before to run these commands, I restarted the admin and timer services on both servers because there are 2 servers on farm.

it creates a job and shows the status Deploying, When I can see the in Job definition and when I try to run this by click on Run Now button, it does not run.

Please help, I already wasted too much time to deploy the solution.

Hello NomanSoofi,

Since there is no errors, I would recommend a holistic approach, following the guidelines in the next Microsoft Article:

https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/21350.sharepoint-2010-troubleshooting-solution-deployment-stuck-on-deploying.aspx

At the same time, the issue may be produced, not only by the Administrator and Timer services but also the "World Wide Web publishing service". All in all, after the restart of services, always check the they are running correctly and they haven't stop again for any reason. Also search for the OWSTIMER.EXE.CONFIG file on your server, and verify that the syntaxis through the file is correct.

Last but not least, in last case scenario, you can try the next:
1.Restart server
2.Remove wsp from SP farm
3.Stop SPTimer
4.Clear SP Cache
5.5Start SPTimer
6.Add and install wsp

Answer 4

try to restart both servers. Farm solutions (wsps) are installed via timer service and if it stuck something may be wrong with timer service. Check under which permission it is running. Also try to check ULS logs (search by wsp name) - may be you will find some details there.
