dropDestinationDatabase option on Web Deployment Commandline Tool

Ho,

I'm trying to get msdeploy commandline tool to copy databases from dev to test.

It seems to work except that I want to drop the databases on test and then recreate them

-verb:sync -source:dbFullSql="Data Source=DEVSERVER;Initial Catalog=XXX_Application;Integrated Security=true",dropDestinationDatabase=true -dest:dbFullSql="Data Source=111.111.111.111;Initial Catalog=XXX_Application;uid=admin;pwd=xxx;Integrated Security=false",dropDestina开发者_StackOverflow社区tionDatabase=true

This is my command line.

Why is it ignoring the dropDestinationDatabase option?

The admin user has permissions for drop.

Regards, Rob

I think you need to append the parameter to only the -dest:dbFullSql switch
