Scripts for resolving issues in on-premises environments
This article serves as a central repository for scripts that you can use to fix issues in on-premises environments. These scripts must usually be run as predeployment or post-deployment scripts.
For more information about how to resolve issues in on-premises environments, see Troubleshoot on-premises deployments.
Prepare your environment for script execution
Configure the execution of predeployment and post-deployment scripts. For more information, see Local agent predeployment and post-deployment scripts.
Add the following code to your Predeployment.ps1 script.
# This has to be filled out # $agentShare = '<Agent-share path>' # E.g '\\LBDContosoShare\agent'' $agentShare = '\\servername\D365FFOAgent' Write-Output "AgentShare is set to $agentShare" # The scripts make the assumption that the wp folder only contains one folder for the environment name. # If you have multiple folders in there from older deployments, then please remove those. # It is not recommended to use the same agent share for multiple environments. #& $agentShare\scripts\TSG_UpdateFRDeployerConfig.ps1 -agentShare $agentShare #& $agentShare\scripts\TSG_WindowsAzureStorage.ps1 -agentShare $agentShare #& $agentShare\scripts\TSG_SysClassRunner.ps1 -agentShare $agentShare #& $agentShare\scripts\TSG_RemoveFilesFromZip.ps1 -agentShare $agentShare -filesToRemove 'Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.ElectronicReportingMapping.dll','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.ElectronicReportingMapping.pdb','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.ElectronicReportingServiceContracts.dll','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.ElectronicReportingServiceContracts.pdb','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics.ElectronicReporting.Instrumentation.dll','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics.ElectronicReporting.Instrumentation.pdb','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.LocalizationFrameworkCore.dll','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.LocalizationFrameworkCore.pdb','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.LocalizationFrameworkForAx.dll','Packages\TaxEngine\bin\Microsoft.Dynamics365.LocalizationFrameworkForAx.pdb' #& $agentShare\scripts\TSG_EnableGMSAForAOS.ps1 -agentShare $agentShare -gmsaAccount contoso\svc-AXSF$ #& $agentShare\scripts\TSG_EnableDixfService.ps1 -agentShare $agentShare -gmsaAccount contoso\svc-Dixf$ -DMFShare "\\servername\dixf-share" # The following script (when enabled) configures HTTPS for SSRS, and enables reporting services to run under a gMSA account. # NOTE!!!

From the relevant section of this article, copy the code that you require to fix your issue, and paste it into a new file. Save this file in the same folder where your Predeployment.ps1 script is stored. The file name must match the title of the section that you copied the code from. Repeat this step for other issues that you must fix.
In the Predeployment.ps1 script, in the code that you added earlier, uncomment the lines that invoke the scripts that you want to use.

TSG_RemoveFilesFromZip.ps1
The following script is used to fix an issue that occurs for some customers who were previously on versions 10.0.5 through 10.0.9. Due to how the prepare process works, there are some older versions of DLLs that remain in the TaxEngine folder, which in newer releases have been moved to different module folders. This script ensures that these DLLs are removed from the downloaded asset, before being deployed to the AOS nodes.
