.Net build is failing due to invalid applicationHost.config

Leave a Comment

Folks,

Am trying to run a build using the below command line however there is a prompt everytime which is causing trouble. I have to address this manually and cannot run automated builds.

$currentScriptPath = (pwd).Path $solution = "$($currentScriptPath)\foobar_Msi.sln" $project = "$($currentScriptPath)\foobarSetup\foobarSetup.vdproj" $BuildLog = "$($currentScriptPath)\buildlog.txt" $devEnvCom = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.com" $devEnvExe = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" $PackagePath = "$($currentScriptPath)\ReleasePackage" . . . & $devEnvCom $solution /project $project /Build release /Out $BuildLog 

An error occured when applying the IIS Express settings to server URL 'http://localhost:2943/' for project 'Foobar.UI'. You may have to manually edit the applicationHost.config file and make the changes for your site to run correctly

I cleared IISAppsettings in document, tried non-interactive command line arguments, changed the binding in build servers applicationHost.Config file and nothing works.

On your development machine, copy/move the solution to a local path that exactly matches the one it will be in when the automated build is run. Open the solution in Visual Studio 2012, Save All, and add the hidden [solution path].VS\applicationHost.config to source control.
