error occurred in deployment step 'recycle iis application pool' :object reference not set to an instance of an object


While deploying using Visual studio, we may get an error "error occurred in deployment step 'recycle iis application pool' :object reference not set to an instance of an object"

Solution:
 Don't get  panic ..Simply restart the visual studio with the solution which you wanted to deploy on to the site

This may help some one.

@praveen Battula: i have gone through your link now.but i checked all those scenarios when i got this issue. Every thing was fine. One thing we should know is, Microsoft never releases its product as fully tested product. It always does user acceptance test. I am not telling this is a SOLUTION. But you can consider it as 'a solution from a lazy person'..:P

Anyways thank you for you post.Keep updating your blog. Move on :)

The Fastest way to Export Schema of Sharepoint List

Many of my SharePoint Developer friends are struggling to get the Schema.xml file of a newly created list. The schema.xml file has the list's metadata information, by using the schema.xml, we can create the lis definition and paste this contents of Schema.xml to the Schema.xml file of the newly created List definition, so that you can deploy the list definition on another site.
