Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 myTODO Error message

Question

I have downloaded the myTODO Azure sample application and when trying to run it locally I am receiving the following very puzzling error message.

The item "..\MyTodo.WebUx\MyTodo.WebUx.csproj" in item list 
"ProjectReferenceWithConfiguration" does not define a value for metadata "Configuration".  
In order to use this metadata, either qualify it by specifying %(ProjectReferenceWithConfiguration.Configuration), 
or ensure that all items in this list define a value for this metadata. 
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\Cloud Service\1.0\Visual Studio 10.0\Microsoft.CloudService.targets

Below is an extractfrom the MyToDo.WebUX.csproj file, what do I change?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"&gt;
<PropertyGroup>
<Configuration Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == '' ">Debug</Configuration>
<Platform Condition=" '$(Platform)' == '' ">AnyCPU</Platform>
<ProductVersion>9.0.30729</ProductVersion>

To get the web project to convert, remove the following from the element: "{603c0e0b-db56-11dc-be95-000d561079b0};"

That sample is out of date though ... you can use it to look at the tests project, but to get a more up to date vs2008 version of the majority of that project's code, try downloading the source to this lab: DeployingApplicationsinWindowsAzure.

The Source link is in the upper right corner. If you look at the end folder for the 3 exercise you will find a more up to date version of this project ... however I don't think the complete solution is there so you'll have to compare it to the one you linked to above.

... I haven't compared the projects myself so I don't know what is missing between the lab version and the one on code gallery.
