Octopus Server Download

Octopus seamlessly connects to either side of your deployment pipeline to deliver software. Pull code from your build server or CI platform of choice and deploy anywhere, like the cloud, data centers, Kubernetes, or on-premises servers.

Those 2 commands will create 2 new entries in the Tentacle.config file, one to get the thumbprint in as trusted (from configure --trust) and another with full thumbprint/address/communication style. The issue is that the server-comms command also creates a new subscriptionId that the Octopus Server does not recognize.

Although Octopus recommends using the 100 year self-signed certificates, I was hoping there would be a straight-forward way to add a new thumbprint to the tentacle trust for a server the tentacle is already connected to.

I had seen and considered the update-trust call from Tentacle, but that approach seems potentially very fragile. Tentacle update-trust will replace the current certificate thumbprint, which means that it can only be ran in a process that is immediately updating the octopus server certificate as it replaces the old thumbprint. The goal I had was to be able to trust the old and the new certificate at the same time, and after the new certificate was in place we can remove the old certificate.

I did manage to get some scripts/steps in place that allow for multiple trusted certificates to the same server. Its works just fine, except for it throws out a TON of logs for the certificate that no longer (or does not yet) match what the server provides. These logs appear on the tentacle and the server, so the server would get overloaded awfully quick with a lot of tentacles.

As far as how I got this to work, I have a script that does the following :

Calls tentacle.exe configure --trust for the new thumbprint which was required to call the server-comms command

Calls tentacle.exe server-comms --thumbprint --style --host --port to ensure that the octopus server information is appropriate connected/duplicated for the new thumbprint

Regex replaces the new poll:// information with the old poll:// information. So that both new certificate and old certificate thumbprints connect on the same polling channel.

This works 100%, either certificate that is presented is accepted by the tentacle. It does however create about half a gig of logs over a weeks time on the tentacle, which I believe all (or most) is duplicated on the server (and for every tentacle) because there is an error when matching the wrong cert.

right and the 2020.3.9 / 2020.4.5 is the server version that is not supposed to be susceptible to the UI slowness from having a tentacle attempting to connect to the same server under 2 different thumbprints. I have not tested myself that this is working for our load, sorry.

Thanks for following up, and my apologies for not providing a private way to send the logs over to us. Probably the easiest way would be to email us directly at support@octopus.com and I can grab them from there, or you can upload them on Octopus.com under the Support tab while logged in with your Octopus ID. Let me know if you require another option and I can get something set up if needed.

The first few times I tried to enter the master key was before I copied over the data folder files. However, I did have the drive letters reversed on the new server. So one disk for the octopus instance and one for databases, but the drive letters were the opposite way round on the new server. I have since made it like for like, but maybe now I have copied the config file over.

I have ensured the account running the setup process has admin rights on the server and is able to connect to the Octopus database in SQL. I have also tried to run the setup as the account that will run the Octopus service, again with rights to the server and database, but neither of these worked.

We are using octopus deploy as Continuous delivery. We have already setup all web related configuration on octopus "Deploy Package Step" where we are deploying nuget package to octopus server and then it is deploying the application to multiple server nodes.

Now we are planning to implement database automation using DBUP on octopus server.We are creating a nuget package and using "Deploy.ps1" which contains the power shell command to execute the console exe application on server.

We are using "Deploy Package step " for the same we don't want to install tentacles on DB server we want to use the same connection string which is already configured for our web application. We have just created DB user with DDL access(Create,Alter..).

I'd recommend using the "Run a script" step rather than "Deploy a package" for your SQL deployment. This step allows you to run the script on the Octopus server, and the script can still be inside a package.

Whilst not a solution, it would be useful if the anti-virus could be disabled entirely on one of the servers whilst you run one of these deployments to see if it makes any difference. If the error still occurs whilst the AV is completely disabled, it would be safe to rule that out.

I searched for 504 and found out:

The 504 Gateway Timeout error is an HTTP status code that means that one server did not receive a timely response from another server that it was accessing while attempting to load the web page or fill another request by the browser

Octopus Deploy is an automated deployment server that makes it easy to automate deployment of ASP.NET web applications, Java applications, NodeJS application and custom scripts to multiple environments.

Let us create a deployment environment in Octopus server and link to Azure using Management Certificate. Environments are deployment targets consisting of machines or services used by Octopus Deploy to deploy applications. With Octopus Deploy, we can deploy applications to Windows servers, Linux servers, Microsoft Azure, or even an offline package drop.

For me I was using Octopus Deploy which was running a service under a specific user account. I had to log onto the server that was running the SOAP tests using this account. Run the .bat file manually and check for UI prompts and adjust SOAPUI where necessary.

The Step input parameter needs to be set to the name of the deployment step that generated the server tasks to be waited. In the classic-pipeline mode, you need to set the reference name on the server_tasks output variable and use that value for Step.

The Octopus Deploy server is very convenient solution to deploy changes through a DevOps infrastructure on to multiple targets at the same time. In addition to application deployments ApexSQL DevOps toolkit Octopus Deploy template steps can provide the means to deploy database changes along the way.

In case there is no Octopus tentacle service installed on the target machine there is option present to download the service installer and install it to the target machine. During the installation process the Octopus tentacle service has to be paired with the server using generated thumbprint code.

Defining role tags will provide additional deployment configuration customization. In case there are multiple machines which have several roles like web server and database server at the same time, using the role tag in deployment steps will define a scope of target machines that have assigned roles with the selected tag and exclude the ones that are not tagged with used role.

This procedure should be repeated at least once more in order to create centralized repository for the deployment resources, in this case database synchronization scripts. This repository should be on the Octopus Deploy server machine. The main benefit is that database comparison and synchronization can be done from one location where ApexSQL tools are installed. This means that there is no need to setup ApexSQL tools on every target machine which would be the case if deployment resources were created on target machines.

Next in line is the set of options to define SQL Server and target database connection. This database will be used as target for schema comparison with the database in the package. Now, since the main purpose of the octopus Deploy system is to deploy same package, in this case database changes, to multiple targets at once this specific database can be on any of the target machines. Only limitation in case of multiple deployments is that all target databases have to be identical in order for generated sync script to work on all of them.

Octopus Deploy is a deployment automation server, designed to make it easy to orchestrate releases and deploy applications, whether on-premises or in the cloud. It can integrate with your existing build pipeline such as Jenkins, TeamCity, Azure DevOps etc.

Since Octopus Deploy is a deployment automation server it does not inherit the capabilities of a traditional VCS wherein you have Pull Request or Push builds. With Pulumi modifying your infrastructure, you may be interested in running pulumi preview first, then run pulumi up but only if the preview looks right to you. One way to do this is, to add a Manual Intervention and Approval Step. With this step, you can effectively pause the deployment of your infrastructure changes until someone has signed-off on it. This is desirable in a team-based environment where several members might be making changes.

Release creation requires specifying an Octopus server and project, and allows optionally specifying the newly created version number, release notes to be included with the release, specific package versions, and an Octopus Deploy release channel.
