I have installed the WebDev Administrator, Control Center, etc. I have set up the required user and it has created the IIS user account, the admin account, etc. I have copied the folder from the old server to the new server. I have create the website under IIS and pointed it to the WebDev folder. I have setup all the same settings and permissions from the old server on the new server. When deploying to the old server all works fine. When deploying to the new server it uploads the ZIP file and then stops with the following message: ...Searching for an existing site ...A site with the same name is already installed on the server ...The same server cannot host two sites with the same name ...Use the WebDev Administrator or the Remote Administrator to rename your site or uninstall the existing one ...If it is the same site you must perform a site update (instead of a site setup) Here I am stuck. If I delete the existing site from IIS then I get another failure which is "serve replied with unexpected event" or something like that with no useful info. I have searched the dialogs of the deployment process but cannot find an option "update" vs "site setup" as suggested in the red error message above. Not sure how to resolve this. Any help appreciated.
