I am trying do manually deploy unicorn serialized yml files into my QA server. But, I am getting exception even while loading the Sitecore instance.

I have copied all the feature/foundation/project folders, except the code folders inside them. Hence, all the folders have only serialization folder. The same path is mentioned in the source path for unicorn as. Am I missing any thing here?

Please help me in understanding how to manually deploy yml files.

Following is the exception:

    your targetDataStore is pointing to a drive that does not exist in your target environment. Make sure to update this setting across environments. Sep 29, 2017 at 14:18
  • Also make sure you give the App Pool user of your site read/write permissions to the serialization folder.

Ran into this issue deploying Habitat to Azure VM. Here is quick solution based on Mark Cassidy's response.

Culprit is the below file. Your file location may be different. but I guess you got the location we are pointing to.

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\HabitatCM\Website\App_Config\Include\Project\z.Habitat.DevSettings.config

In this file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration xmlns:patch="http://www.sitecore.net/xmlconfig/">
  <sitecore>
    <sc.variable name="sourceFolder" value="E:\\Projects\\Habitat\\src" />

Verify the sourceFolder value. This may be pointing to a drive which may not be existing. As this is what happened in my case.

Once I changed it to C:\Habitat I am able to see the Sitecore login page.

Hope this helps.
