Occasionally we get the following exception thrown from the Azure App Service Deploy task (version 2.*)

Checking Take App Offline, Publish using WebDeploy and Rename locked files check boxes fixed my issue. However the deployment was successful for two concurrent releases. Will update you once my nightly scheduled builds get succeeded.

@rmarinho , Is App Offline flag enabled in Release definition? Can you please add -retryInterval:6000 -retryAttempts:10 in Additional arguments of Web Deploy option? We have another thread to monitor the same issue.

Is there any webjobs or Application Insights extensions running in your App Service?
