Common Platform Errors During Deployment

• Deployment to remote node failed because of version mismatch.

This message means that the GR and Remote Platform are not at the same Service Pack/Patch Level. Please make sure GR and Platform are at Same Version/Patch Level

• Failed to deploy - another platform is deployed to the target pc.

This means another platform was deployed to the remote pc. There are still some registry keys in the remote pc causing the GR to think one is deployed. You will need to run the platform remover (which can be downloaded from WDN) on the remote pc to clean up the registery. Reboot the PC then try to redeploy.

• Failed to deploy platform Remote Node's UserID/Password don't match GR Node's.

This error means the Wonderware network accounts are different on the GR and Remote Node.Rerun the change network account utility on each pc to make sure they match.

• Error message when deploying platform. "Remote activation was necessary but server name was not provided".

This can be caused by name/IP mismatch, particularly when host files are used for name resolution, or by mismatched network accounts.

• Can not deploy because another platform is already deployed to this computer.

Run the Platform Remover on remote node. Reboot then redeploy.

• Unable to deploy code modules to target during deployment.

Uninstall and Reinstall the Bootstrap on the remote pc.

• When trying to deploy a platform get "Failed to get bootstrap version"

Uninstall and Reinstall the Bootstrap on the remote pc.
