  • Kindly attach screen shot with your question. If possible then try to change the scope of your SharePoint Solution according to your requirement.

I think you have multi server farm

*

Basically the error happens because VS 2010 do not support features activation on multi-server farms. However ,the devil is in the details, the exact explanation is in a previous step. It turns out that VS 2010 internally implements a call to the method SPSolution.DeployLocal http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.administration.spsolution.deploylocal.aspx . That method is intended for troubleshooting purpouses of wsp files and as you can read on the MSDN documentation it performs a local deployment instead of an immediate deployment (Only to one sever of the farm) Therefore, the only solution to avoid the situation is to compile the code (build o re-build) , go to the VS 2010 top menu and select build -> package. After that a new wsp file will be created on the BIN folder of the project.

The second variant of problem is multiserver sharepoint farm (several webfrontend). In my case on dev.enviroment used 2WFE(sharepoint 2013), then deploy from VisualStudio impossble. Deploy project from PowerShell or SharepointInstaller. Debug - connect from VisualStudio.

  • First open the feature where you have defined the scope in your VS solution & press F4 to check its properties. There you will have attribute called Always Force Install so make it true from false.
