VSTS: Deployment on this environment was cancelled

Question

We are trying to setup a continuous build/release process using VSTS to do the build and then release to our local environment using the Agent method as described in this documentation and a few Channel 9 videos. 

The agent is recognized but any attempt to release any builds or perform any tasks fails with a message of "Deployment on this environment was cancelled." with no further information given.

Any help as to what might be a cause for this recurring error would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Derek

Hi Derek,

According to your description, you are using Visual Studio Team Service, the Visual Studio Team Service is the better place for this issue and I will move it there for you.

Greetings,

Sorry for delay in response.

Please provide more information it will help us to drilldown the issue.

send us an email to v-suhp at Microsoft dot com with agent logs, by following these steps:

1. Clean “_diag” folder, in the agent path.

2. Run queue a release and wait for its completion.

3. Pick up all the contents of the “_diag” folder and send us as a zip.

Additionally, provide us with the releaseId and  vsts(vso) account’s id.

Regards,
