How to create web deployment alone package using TFS

Powershell DSC



/p:MSDeployPublishMethod=InProc
/p:WebPublishMethod=MSDeploy
/p:MSDeployPublishMethod=InProc

This works, you'll need to fill in the username and pword in the queue dialog:
/p:UseWPP_CopyWebApplication=true /p:PipelineDependsOnBuild=false /p:DeployOnBuild=True /p:DeployTarget=MsDeployPublish /p:WebPublishMethod=MSDeploy /p:CreatePackageOnPublish=False /p:MSDeployPublishMethod=RemoteAgent /p:MSDeployServiceUrl=http://fscee29028-1 /p:DeployIisAppPath="vaww.clfm-dev.fsc.va.gov" /p:UserName= /p:Password=

This works also (removed first 2 params from above)
/p:DeployOnBuild=True /p:DeployTarget=MsDeployPublish /p:WebPublishMethod=MSDeploy /p:CreatePackageOnPublish=False /p:MSDeployPublishMethod=RemoteAgent /p:MSDeployServiceUrl=http://fscee29028-1 /p:DeployIisAppPath="vaww.clfm-dev.fsc.va.gov" /p:UserName= /p:Password=

/p:DeployOnBuild=true;PublishProfile=fscee29028-1_CLFM_WebInt.pubxml /p:Password=

MSBuild.exe MyWebs.sln /p:Configuration=Release /p:DeployOnBuild=true;PublishProfile=DeployToDirectory.pubxml
