Correct Steve. I can try to compile it and see how it goes.

Cheers,

Hello,

I have sort of solved the issue after a lot of experimentation.

I started chopping bits out of the build script until the project would compile successfully then added lines back in until I got the same error again.

These lines gave the error:
    <CreateItem Include="**\*.sqldataprovider">
      <Output TaskParameter="Include"   ItemName="SqlDataProviderFiles" />
    </CreateItem>

    <Copy SourceFiles="@(SqlDataProviderFiles)" DestinationFolder="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\Package\%(RecursiveDir)" />




I also noticed at the end of the script a couple of lines should remove the temporary working directories the script uses while building the installation:

    <RemoveDir Directories ="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\Package" />
    <RemoveDir Directories ="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\ResourcesZip" />

But the Package and ResourcesZip directory were still present so my suspicion was that their files would be included in the build and possibly cause the errors.

I deleted them and recompiled, after a few attempts the project compiled successfully.

So it seems something caused the build to fail, as it didn't complete it wasn't able to delete the directories and their inclusion in the next build seems to have caused the issue. I haven't been able to work out what would have caused the error in the first place but all is working fine now.

Thank you Aderson for your help, it was very kind of you to check the compilation of the source on your environment. But no idea why the issue didn't occur for you as those directories would have been present.

Best Regards,

Steve.

Hi Steve,

Actually that was my mistake. It wasn't successful. I had complied previously in Debug mode, not in release mode. When I switched to release mode I got the same error as you :(
