I am using File system for media and trying to get Web Deploy to work between CM and CD but running into issue when I try to publish media item.
My WebDeploy.config looks like this:
<targetDatabase>web</targetDatabase>
<targetServer>cd-site</targetServer>
<userName>Administrator</userName>
<password>pwd</password>
<localRoot>C:\inetpub\wwwroot\CM\Website</localRoot>
<remoteRoot>C:\inetpub\wwwroot\CD\Website</remoteRoot>
<items hint="list:AddPath">
<media>App_Data/MediaFiles</media>
</items>
I cant seem to get pass this error in sitecore after publish, any ideas?:

I fixed this by installing Web Deploy from WebPI. For some reason when I only installed Web Deploy 3.6 independently the services were not registered properly. After installing via WebPI the publishing job instantly started working.
