title: 'ERROR_DESTINATION_NOT_REACHABLE:' Error When Trying to Deploy to Google Cloud Platform
body: <p>I'm trying to get to grips with Google Cloud for a University Project.</p>
  
  <p>I have created a .NET Google Cloud project on VS 2019 and I'm trying to deploy it to my Windows 2016 server on Google Cloud Platform.</p>
  
  <p>However I keep getting the error: 
  <code>D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v16.0\Web\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(4284,5): msdeploy error ERROR_DESTINATION_NOT_REACHABLE: Web deployment task failed. (Could not connect to the remote computer ("35.235.58.62"). On the remote computer, make sure that Web Deploy is installed and that the required process ("Web Management Service") is started.</code></p>
  
  <p>What I've tried so far:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Checking server's firewall is open for inbound 8172</li>
  <li>Disabled home PC firewall to make sure that wasn't the issue</li>
  <li>Installed Web Platform Installer on the server</li>
  <li>Added ISS Management Service through Web Platform Installer</li>
  <li>Enabled remote connections on ISS</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Any advice or help on the solution would be greatly appreciated.</p>
