I'm on vista, with VS2005 running as admin. Both vs2005 and vs2008 are installed. If I explicitly use the path to gacutil, it works, but not if I only call gacutil like this: if NOT $(ConfigurationName) == Release gacutil /f /i "$(TargetPath)" I would just update the post-build script, but I've been asked to leave it alone. It's ...

Hi all. I've got a nant build script (.86 beta) and it is telling me this: BUILD FAILED Failed to initialize the 'Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0' target framework.

Our team recently upgraded to TeamCity 4.5.4 but we're having trouble with TeamCity running our nant build scripts. We now get an error message saying: Invalid element <trycatch>.

I have a section of C# code within my nant build script that runs and updates the console window's title with any message that I want, which is this (and runs perfectly fine): <script language="C#" > <code unless="${string::ends-with(build.script.debug, 'off')}"> [TaskName("consoletask")] public class TestTask...
In our developer environment, no users have administration rights. As such, it's not possible to install MSBuild.CommunityTasks without getting admin to do so. What I'm wondering is similar to NAnt, i.e. is it possible to include the files in your solution directory, and just reference it from there? This way, will not matter if the pe...

I seem to have a situation where code that I put into the BeforeBuild target is not successfully executing. Here is what I have: <Target Name="BeforeBuild" > <Message Text="Before Build" /> </Target> I can’t see the message output in the build log when the build runs. Is there something wrong with the way I’ve formatted this, or...
I have a database that I need to maintain in both oracle and mysql. The data insert script of scripts looks like below. Of course Mysql uses source while oracle uses @ In all other respects the scripts invoked and their order of invocation are identical. (That's because they are just ANSI compliant insert statements).

If you used the following: Continuous Integration using build scripts IDE for code development Do you run into problems of synchronizing your build scripts with the IDE build system?

I'm wondering if I'm barking up the wrong tree here. Is it possible to replace an Ant build script used for building Flex projects with a Nant build script? Specifically, it doesn't seem like there are any replacements for the Ant <mxmlc>, <macrodef> and <taskdef> tasks provided with Nant or Nant-contrib. I'm not too experienced in ei...
I'm part of a team that operates a portal for our company. There are ~200 small, what we call applications, inside of the portal. One may be to submit receipts, another to submit a timesheet, another to see activities going on, etc. Each of these applications is fairly separate from the others, so we've created individual trunk/branch...
