MOSS 2007 Content Deployment - Problem -- *Solved
I have trouble with a staging environment that I recently set up.  I went through the error logs and finally got the staging environment functioning without errors, but previous to working through those errors, we successfully made a content deployment path and job and ran it.  Now, the Destination central Admin is giving permissions issues.  I changed and restarted some services and some component services..  Are there any specific things I should check related specifically to content deployment as far as services on the server? 

 

 

Either the URL for the destination Web application is not valid, or you do not have permissions to the Central Administration site on the destination server farm.

Error details: The remote Web service request failed with this message : 'Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.'.

You have specified a URL that begins with http://. Communication to this URL will not be secure and can be intercepted by malicious users.
 
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem Solved, the app pool for central admin was running under the service account, "SPSWorker", rather than the admin account, "SPSAdmin". That was a fun debug.

While trying to create a new path, I am getting the error : Client found response content type of 'text/html; charset=utf-8', but expected 'text/xml'.

The request failed with the error message:

Can somebody help please?

@Denny,

We got this error during content deployment as well:

Content deployment job 'MyContentDeployment' failed.The exception thrown was 'System.InvalidOperationException' : 'Client found response content type of 'text/html', but expected 'text/xml'. The request failed with the error message [html ... ] There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed. [ ... /html]

It was occurring at the end of the export step.  Turned out the Destination Central Administration Web App was broken.  That's where this error is coming from - the end of the export step is the first time the Source farm tries to talk to the Destination farm, and the web service call was failing with a HTTP 500 error.
