I am trying to build my VS 2008 project in CCNEt and getting the below error
<message level="high"><![CDATA[".\Bin\mt.exe" -nologo -manifest "C:\MyProject\MyFile.exe.manifest" -outputresource:"C:\MyProject\bin\Release\MyFile.exe;#1"]]></message>
<message level="high"><![CDATA[The system cannot find the path specified.]]></message>
<error code="MSB3073" file="C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\Microsoft.Common.targets" line="3397" column="13"><![CDATA[The command "".\Bin\mt.exe" -nologo -manifest "C:\MyProject\MyFile.exe.manifest" -outputresource:"C:\MyProject\bin\Release\MyFile.exe;#1" exited with code 3.]]></error>
This project builds happily on my local server.
ALso there is no Bin folder in M.Net\Framework\v3.5....
Any help will be awesome
I also did an msbuild on the project and got the same error.
If you are getting the above message
it's most likely coz you are trying to build your solution on a server which has Visual Studio 2008 or the .net Framework 3.5 SDK not installed
and are copying files from your dev computer to server to make things work
well here is the solution
copy the
C:\program files\Microsoft SDKs
folder (thanks @leppie for that)
to your CCNet / build server.
Next you need to update the registry
telling the .net framework where the SDK is
See below screenshot for details
you will have to create the Windows key and then add the strings

error 3 is "The system cannot find the path specified."
suggest trying sysinternals procmon to see what it is looking for (And failing to find)
You need to add the path to the SDK\bin directory.
EG:
c:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin\
