Missing deploy.cmd when building website

Question

I have an old website that is being deployed to a server by teamcity. Previously, this has been done by invoking the build target MSDeployPublish. All the other sites being deployed from teamcity use Package and then a separate build configuration to deploy by invoking the generated cmd file.

But, this one site does not make a cmd file when built. The package zip file does contain an Archive.deploy.cmd file, but Project.deply.cmd is missing from the Package output directory.

I have been comparing this project to a couple other that work, but am unable to find the root cause.

One that works:

And the one that doesn't work:

Answer 1

It seems I cracked it;

<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Release|AnyCPU' ">
 <DebugType>pdbonly</DebugType>
 <Optimize>true</Optimize>
 <OutputPath>bin\</OutputPath>
 <DefineConstants>TRACE</DefineConstants>
 <ErrorReport>prompt</ErrorReport>
 <WarningLevel>4</WarningLevel>
-<PackageAsSingleFile>false</PackageAsSingleFile>
-<ExcludeGeneratedDebugSymbol>true</ExcludeGeneratedDebugSymbol>
-<ExcludeApp_Data>true</ExcludeApp_Data>
-<PublishDatabases>false</PublishDatabases>
-<DeployIisAppPath>Partnerportal</DeployIisAppPath>
-<DesktopBuildPackageLocation>obj\Release\Package\Project.zip</DesktopBuildPackageLocation>
-<Prefer32Bit>false</Prefer32Bit>
+<CodeAnalysisRuleSet>AllRules.ruleset</CodeAnalysisRuleSet>
</PropertyGroup>

I suspect it is likely the PackageAsSingleFile that caused the issue.
