Answer 1

Maybe because you misspelled "configuration?" If not that, then it might be your code. Without more information it is hard to tell.

Answer 2

This looks like you're using VS2008 to compile a VS2005 solution (or 2005 to compile a 2003 one). Open the solution in VS2008, go through the upgrade wizard, save changes, close VS2008 and try the command line again.
