Investigate missing videos on IIS.NET

[Rick-Anderson]

what happed to the media on learn.microsoft.com?
https://www.iis.net/ links to several videos that are now gone. For example: https://learn.microsoft.com/video/media/373b405a-7259-4786-951e-4d4511bd0fd1/webdeploy_high.mp4.

Any idea what happened to the videos?

Check on:

• Teams
• Create a work item (Note: iis-docs does not allow tracking work items/issues to be made, so unless the vendor that was suggested to fix the issues is using DevOps, they will just have to refer to this issue. -WadePickett)

@Rick-Anderson, for the example video you provided. Is that an example of the area of videos, but that video is working fine, or was that an example of a problem video. I am able to reach that video and play it fine, so I assume the former, but I'll ask just to verify we are on the same page, thanks:

Obviously the video is fine. Appears to be missing links but you check with @John-Hart

Yes, well, obviously. :) It was not clear why you sent that one, but I found the thread and more context, thanks.

Here is the solution to fix this issue:

The CH9 videos were migrated to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/iis-net-site-videos/

I found the ​commit where it looks like the broken CH9 links were removed in mass. 42 video content pages had their channel9.msdn.com link removed in 2021 here:
Old channle9 video link removed · MicrosoftDocs/iis-docs@a760974 (github.com)

For example:
on:
iis/application-frameworks/running-php-applications-on-iis/mix08-partying-with-php-on-microsoft-internet-information-services-7-and-above.md

This link was removed:
https://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/IIS-NET-Site-Videos/MIX08-Partying-with-PHP-on-Microsoft-Internet-Information-Services-7

But instead, it should have been updated to where it migrated to Learn at:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/iis-net-site-videos/mix08-partying-php-on-microsoft-internet-information-services-7.

To fix:

• Update the files using that old pr/commit 760974 as a guide to re-include the video information (video length in minutes, etc) and link to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/iis-net-site-videos/[video file name here] instead. Verify each video link of course.
• Do a search on the iis-docs repo for any remaining channel9.msdn links to videos that need to be updated to learn.

John H. indicated this issue is being tracked and handled by email directly with the person on his team assigned to fix it now. So closing investigation issue as complete.
