Deploy to even more environments using OnCheckin and OctopusDeploy
Customers building and deploying .Net application to large clusters of servers through Octopus Deploy spend considerable time setting up and configuring a local build server. Today at OnCheckin we announce the release of functionality that dramatically improves this situation for customers by extending our current support for FTP, FTPS, SFTP and WebDeploy deployments to also include OctopusDeploy. Starting today customers gain support for OctoPack builds and Octopus Deploy deployments through OnCheckin at no additional cost.

Troubleshooting missing files and failed builds for your Visual Studio projects
As with any build server technology, when our build servers download your source code to compile it, a number of things can cause your build to fail. Troubleshooting the issue locally often allows you to find and apply a really simple fix, without having to do the “checkin, build, investigate” dance that can sometimes occur when using Continuous Integration.

Important news for OnCheckin users logging in with Google
Nearly a year ago Google made the decision to remove support for Google OpenId login for 3rd party websites such as ours. The majority of our customers use Google login as their main way to authenticate with our service, so ensuring that our customers can safely and securely migrate their OnCheckin credentials was of the highest importance to us. Starting a little over a month ago we launched support for Google’s new preferred login approach OAuth 2.0 – migrating your account to using OAuth is easy.

Update on the recent OnCheckin service interruption
On the evening of November 18th Pacific Standard Time we experience an outage that interrupted access to our website as well as the operation of our source control and build nodes from 5pm PST until 11pm PST. This was caused by our main hosting provider Microsoft Azure themselves having a much larger system outage that affected any of their services that relied on storage (basically all services hosted on Azure). We are extremely sorry to our customers who were attempting to deploy their websites using our service during this time.
