Question

I have a cruise control server running a build on a VM. All I did was change the source control from Perforce to Git, and the build is now failing.

CCNet Config

<tasks>
    <msbuild>
        <executable>C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe</executable>
        <workingDirectory>c:\Build\Pcp_Main</workingDirectory>
        <buildArgs>/v:d Pcp.proj /target:Clobber;Build /property:Configurations="Debug;Release" /property:NUnitRedirectConsoleOutput=1</buildArgs>
        <logger>C:\Program Files\CruiseControl.NET\server\ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MSBuild.dll</logger>
        <timeout>2700</timeout>
    </msbuild>
</tasks>

Build Log

Done Building Project "c:\Build\Pcp_Main\Pcp.proj" (Clobber;Build target(s)).

Build succeeded.

</build>

The folder c:\Build\Pcp_Main\Artifacts\ exists and the user running the build has write access to the folder.

I have also tried changing the logging dll to Rodemeyer.MsBuildToCCnet.dll and I get the same exception.

The project also builds from the command line without any problems.

Answer 1

The issue was having the artifacts folder inside the build folder. Moving it outside of the build folder resolved the issue.
