Should the executor deploy the project on the server if this was not specified in the specification?

Question

Freelance

there was a task to develop a tsrmka on dzhanga, I developed it, sent it to the customer as an archive.
Now the customer wants me to deploy the project on his server, but I'm a developer, not a system administrator. Should I do it for free?

Answer 1

Should not.
Another thing is that this should not be a problem for you. The developer must be able to deploy the environment.

Answer 2

The main principle of work with clients is "always say YES".
You took payment for your part of the work - creating the cmr.
If the customer still wants additional work - please pay extra. Well, you yourself will do or subcontract - your business.

Answer 3

if the task says "pass in the archive" then probably should not.
otherwise, yes
, as a last resort, a detailed instruction "how to deploy" should come with the delivery. but just to write such an instruction that will work universally on all servers, it will most likely be more difficult than deploying it yourself once

Answer 4

Deploying on the server takes a maximum of 30 minutes. If the project was generously paid for, then what is the reason for such a question?

Answer 5

everything should be for money, unfortunately, on the one hand, on the other hand, developing a normal crm on django is a lot of money and probably deploying is not so expensive to fool around about it, I would just ask the customer about it
