If I use the same NuGet package across multiple deployment steps, whichever one runs second fails with the following message.
“The package has already been installed on this machine, so it will be ignored. To override this, use the ‘Force redeployment’ checkbox in the Octopus UI.”
I tried forcing redeployment but this causes a failure during the second deployment step as well, this time accessing files as below. Octopus could handle this by applying config changes (IIS Vdir in my case) even when a given package has already been deployed.
