I'm looking for a way to automated the generation of change scripts for our databases. Currently we use Visual Studio 2008 database edition, which has the Schema Compare option, but I don't see a way to automated those actions. What I'd like to do is create an old and a new database during my daily builds and have schema compare gener...
I have this problem when I queue a build. The build dies with the error The path C:\[Path]\Sources is already mapped in workspace [Server Name]. the same as this question. but I've removed all the workspaces on the build agent by running this command: tf workspaces /remove:* and also by deleting the TFS cache folder. I've also...
I'm tring to use Team Build to build a solution. On my PC I create a new build using VS2008, it only has 1 solution in it. It's a C++ dll which is compiled in VS2005. I have the build configured to build on our Build server. When I run the build I get the error "error PRJ0050: Failed to register output." When I compile the solution u...
How do you configure a Team Build 2010 build process template to run MbUnit tests via Gallio? ...
I'm currently in the process of creating a bunch of new build scripts for our platform. Things went okay until I encountered the following error: D:\TFS\WorkingDir\BuildType\TFSBuild.proj(173,5): error MSB4018: Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.WorkspaceNotFoundException: TF14061: The workspace BUILDMACHINENAME_9;BUILDMACHI...
I am trying to run a command line action in my Team Build (MSBuild). When I run it on the command line of the build machine it works fine. But when run in the build script I get a "exited with code 3". This is command that I am running: C:\Program Files\Wavelink\Avalanche\PackageBuilder>.\jresdk\bin\java -classpath "WLUtil.jar;WLPac...
Hi all, A similar question was asked and answered about a year ago, but was either a different issue (everything was in beta) or misdiagnosed. It's located here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/688162/msbuild-task-fails-because-any-cpu-solution-is-built-out-of-order. My issue is that I have a wix installer project, and after upgradi...
I am looking to create a way to build my Legacy Delphi 5 and 6 apps via TFS Build (using TFS 2010). I was fairly dangerous with the MSBuild way of doing things and I think I can still do that, but I would like to get into the Work Flow way of doing it. Are there any resources out there that discuss customizing a TFS Build via Windows W...
I have a lot of legacy Delphi 5 & 6 Code. We want to test this code using the new Microsoft Test Manager (part of VS2010) To effectively track your testing using this tool you need to use build numbers. To get Delphi 5 or 6 building in TFS Build 2010 is a huge task. One that I am not sure I want to take on. Is there a way I can just...
In our project, we'd like to have our TFS build put each project into its own folder under the drop folder, instead of dropping all of the files into one flat structure. To illustrate, we'd like to see something like this: DropFolder/ Foo/ foo.exe Bar/ bar.dll Baz baz.dll This is basically the same question as was as...
I'm using GDR2 (VSTS2008) to deploy a sql clr function to a target db (server: sql server 2008) via Team Build. The error is obvious in that the assembly does not exist on the target server. But, based on the documentation (Deploying CLR ) that there is on this topic, I'm assuming that by simply adding a reference to the assembly in the ...
I'm working on setting up multiple builds in TFS2008. In my build agent configuration I can select a working folder. However, every time I run any of my builds, it's using files from that working folder, including the tfsbuild.proj file that it finds there. So now I have builds that half do what I want and half do what is defined in f...
Hi, I've written a custom MSBuild script to be used with Team Build, as I am storing PHP in TFS and of course it isn't compiled. My custom script calls the CoreGet target to get the latest version of the files, and the copies them, ZIPs, them, and FTPs the ZIP archive to a testing server. All of that is working fine. The problem I am...
Is there any way to copy a build definition? I work in a mainline source control methodology which utilizes many different branches that live for very short periods (ie. a few days to a week). I'd really like to copy a build template and just change the solution to build. Is there any way to do this? ...
I'm trying to track down some problems with unit tests in a test TFS 2010 build. The overall log file reports an error being returned from MSTest, but the only log files I can find, the log files for the individual projects being compiled, indicate no problems. Where can I locate the "main" log file that is used to generate the build r...
Hi, I have recently upgraded from TFS2005 to TFS2010 (and sub-sequently the team build server). I used to be able to get a team build on one of my solutions to work pretty easily, (see structure below) Solution |_Web Site | |_Bin | |_Other Files |_Project 1 |_Project 2 |_Project (n) Now, i can no longer get a build working cor...
It seems odd that the main build definitions would not have a history, but I can't find any mechanisms. Please tell me there is someway to track changes to the build definitions over time. ...
Hi, Our existing batch build script contains an URL to get the latest product-build (of another build definition) from. How can one access the lattest build drop folder of TFS Team Build? I'm looking for something to access the latest \buildserver\builddrop\Project-2010MMDD.N\ ...
