Team build error: the path already mapped to works

问题:

So I have reviewed the link to solve this problem, as referenced below.

Team build error: the path already mapped to workspace

But my problem is that EVERY time i queue that Build Definition i get the same problem. Ok, i go delete the tfs workspace it's complaining about. Great it works! Then run the build again... ok now it doesn't and i have to go delete the TFS service workspace all over again.

How come TFS build service is stepping on itself every time it does a build. The error is " Unable to create the workspace 'xxx' due to mapping conflict... the path xxx is already mapped in workspace 'xxx'" but the mapping is to a workspace that the previous BUILD created. Not anything from a specific user.

ok, this seemed to occur because (i hadn't noticed) that i changed the "Build Agent Folder" specification by accident to a fixed path. rather than keeping it with $(SourceDir). I changed the entry in the build definition to this and it worked fine, after multiple builds using same build definition.
