Concatenating Variables

Legacy Uncategorised
1

I’m trying to use a combination of Octopus Variables in a .config file as follows:

Where #{LogRoot} and #{IIS Virtual Dir} are defined as variables in my Octopus project. However when I try to deploy a release I get an error back stating that the config file parsing failed.

Am I using the correct syntax for this?

Hi Sam,

Thanks for reaching out! I’m gonna need a few things to help with the troubleshooting:

  1. The config line you pasted is part of a .config file used for transformations, correct? If possible could you send the whole file? You can change any sensitive data to fake values.

  2. Please send a screenshot of your NuGet deploy step. Make sure all the fields can be seen on it.

  3. Enable these troubleshooting variables on your project http://docs.octopusdeploy.com/display/OD/Debug+problems+with+Octopus+variables

  4. Once (3) is done, please create a new release (so the variables take effect), deploy it and send me the raw deployment log http://docs.octopusdeploy.com/display/OD/Get+the+raw+output+from+a+task

I’m making this conversation private so only you and our staff can see its content and attachments.

Regards,
