(UP)

Summary

When making a Web Deploy Package, the default name of the package is hard baked into the package's {project}.SetParameters.xml file:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
  <parameters>
    <setParameter name="IIS Web Application Name" value="Default WebSite\ExampleSite" />
    ...
  </parameters>

If using IIS to install the package (see: IT:AD:WebDeploy:HowTo:Manually Deploy a Package on a Target IIS), then the UI will show that value.

If using a script, possibly an automatic deploy scenario within an IT:AD:Continuous Integration environment you may want to override this default value.

In your IT:AD:WebDeploy:HowTo:Create a Publish Profile/Parameters.xml, place:

<parameter
	name="AppPath"
	defaultValue="Default Web Site/wordpress"
	tags="iisapp"
	>
	<parameterEntry
	type="ProviderPath"
	scope="iisapp"
	match="wordpress"
	/>
</parameter>

<parameter name="providerPath" description="providerPath" defaultValue="NoProviderPath">
  <parameterEntry type="providerPath" scope="iisApp" /> 
 </parameter>

Will generate (in output SetParameters.xml):

<parameters>
 <setParameter name="providerPath" value="WSVecozo/app/Autorisatie" />
</parameters>
