Troubleshooting on-premise environment deployment D365FFO

This document contains tips for troubleshooting on-premises Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations environment deployment failures, based on my own experiences when troubleshooting this process for the first time.

Types of failures

The first type of failure I am seeing here is a simple redeploy of the environment. Originally I was trying to deploy a custom package, but it failed and I didn’t know why, so I deleted the environment and was redeploying with vanilla – no custom bits, just the base, and it still failed. In LCS after it runs for approx. 50 minutes I see the state change to Failed. There is no further log information in LCS itself, that information is within the respective machines in the on-premises environment.
