I'm currently building the first web site of a company with Umbraco and a need of the infrastructure team is to be able to automate the deployment as much as possible.
We already have a solution for the file copy and so on and the only manual step that left is the Umbraco installation/upgrade.
Is it possible to somehow (HTTP request or web.config settings) automate the installation. The idea would be to provide the connection string to the database and trigger the installation automatically (so without a human being opening Chrome and running the installation).
Nice article but what I want to get rid of is the screen once Umbraco as been installed or need an upgrade. The one where you have to enter your installation parameter (admin account and database setup) or the one where you need to click on "Upgrade" to upgrade to the latest version.

Hi,
beucase I'm working for a federal institution that is reluctant is hosting his web site outside of the country (even outside of their building ^^).
How did you setup copying files?
I think this article can help you - https://cultiv.nl/blog/using-umbraco-migrations-to-deploy-changes/

However, I checked a bit the code and I might have found a way. I'm discussion it (by myself for now ^^) in here: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-11520
I'm installing continuous deployment for umbraco also now. Can you share please what tools you are using for copying?
Voted :)
Cool, thanks :-D
