How the Client Connects with WebMatrix:
Protocol: Web Deploy
Server: IP or domain name
username: Windows User Account
password: Windows user password
site name: the name of the site (as you see in IIS).
Other Application:
Service URL: https://domainname:8172/MsDeploy.axd?site=iissitename
Trouble Shooting Tips:
RDP to Server. Go to url below should get a password prompt
https://localhost:8172/msdeploy.axd
https://localhost:8172/msdeploy.axd?site=somesitename
Go to Devbox and try this replacing local host with server name:
times out then firewall not open on 8172 or not enabled in Management service
Open IIS Manager Go to Server node (right below starpage. probably has hgadmin in the name)
Go to Management service and make sure it is started (not web platform installer)
Enable remote Connection [x]Checked
