OD Error

I receive the error below when submitting files from a new branch and new workarea. The error is 'Need to wait for deployment to complete'. I know that i must have something misconfigured but the error is not very clear.

I logged in as ODADMIN to the OD UI and there are no deployments pending. There is only one deployment listed and it's status is 'complete'.

Has anybody else seen this? What did you do?

Any ideas would be great.

I don't *think* the issue is with an existing deployment, but I could be wrong. From a cmd line, try

iwodserverstatus

that should tell you if there are any deployments. I think you will need to post your deployment config with some more info.

What version?
What OS?
Do other deployments work?
Did you write the cfg file, or use the GUI? Any GUI errors?
You are using a file list deployment, have you checked it is available and valid.

I think the the last lines will be the most important...

It sounds like, for one reason or another, your OpenDeploy Base Server thinks it has a deployment already running with the same name. You may need to bounce the service ('net stop iwod' and 'net start iwod') in order to clear this out.

If this happens again, please contact Interwoven Support and supply them with log files, configuration files, etc.

Got Exception: null means that your OD Sender and Receiver are not able to communicate with each other. Check the following:
odnodes - The correct server name or IP name for the receiver is in the file.

odrcdr.xml - has the correct sender server name or IP for the localnode host and node host.
Check that you have the correct node ref and use ref in your configuration xml file.

In summary, check that you are reference all the correct server names and that you have not made a typeo.

Thank you for your help Matt. I am sorry it took me so long to respond.

iwodserverstat yields

\Program Files\OD551SP2\contents\bin>iwodserverstatus
OpenDeploy server host: localhost, RMI registry port: 9173
OpenDeploy server is alive.
0 deployments are currently active.

* OS - Windows 2000 SP3
* TS Version 5.5.2 SP2b
* OD Version 5.5.1 SP2
* All other deployments work
* I wrote templating.cfg config file by hand
* The filelistdeployment is valid and available. Although my generated file is not in the filelist file for this branch - only the DCR - which is ignored by OpenDeploy. I am not sure why my file is not being generated?????

OK, well at least we know there isn't a real deployment hanging or something. I would do what fish recommended. Either start and stop the OD service or netstop and start.

Good Luck

Also - make sure you have a deployment configuration file named "fileListDeployment.xml" in IWODHOME/conf/ - as you seem to be instructing OpenDeploy to run that deployment configuration file.

If it isn't there - that might explain the:
