Retracting and Deploying SP Solution in Sharepoint Server 2010

Yesterday, I encountered one problem when I tried to retracting farm solution in SharePoint Server.

. Here is the SharePoint Power Shell code to retract. 

Uninstall-SPSolution –Identity <Name of wsp file>.wsp –Webapplication “<your application name>”

But it stuck the status with “ Retracting(Scheduled ….)”. Then I cancelled the job and retract with force command

Uninstall-SPSolution –Identity <Name of wsp file>.wsp –Webapplication “<your application name>” –force -confirm:$false

It still stucking. Then tried to cancelled the job and remove with force command using following code.

Remove-SPSolution -identity <Name of wsp file>.wsp –Webapplication “<your application name>” -force -confirm:$false

The solution has been removed from server. Then tried to add the solution.

Add-SPSolution “File Location and File Name (e.g D:\test.wsp)”.

Solution has been successfully added. Then tried to install the solution to SharePoint Sever.

Install-SPSolution –Identity <Name of wsp file>.wsp –Webapplication “<your application name>”.

But still stuck. Then I restarted the sharepoint timer services.

Net stop sptimerv4.

When I run this in command prompt, the service cannot stop and it stuck in Stopping.

Then open Task Manager -> Processes Tab -> Select Show Processes from all Users

Kill all process of w3wp.exe and OWSTimer.exe.

After that I reset IIS Server in command prompt

 iisreset /noforce

Then tried to stop and start sharepoint timer services.

Net stop sptimerv4.

Net start sptimerv4.

SPTimer services is restarted successfully.

Then install spsolution to sharepoint server.

Now SPSolution deployed successfully in sharepoint server. JJJ
