Team city unmet requirement: MSBuildTools12.0_x86_Path exists
I have a TeamCity install on x32 Server2008 windows machine. I've run the .net 4.5 web install. I've also copied over the files from my x64 machine based on this article so that I didn't need to install vs2012 (though, I did have the change the path to remove x86 on the 32bit machine):
MSBuild in TeamCity of Visual Studio 2012 solution
I can't seem to get the local agent to run the build that I've setup for msbuild on a vs2012 or vs2010 project. I keep getting:
Unmet requirements: MSBuildTools12.0_x86_Path exists
I've restarted the server multiple times, and restarted the agent as well. I've tried messing with the path variables a little, but can't figure out what I'm missing. I've looked as well in the Configuration Parameters, and can see these:
MSBuildTools2.0_x86_Path C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727
MSBuildTools3.5_x86_Path C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5
MSBuildTools4.0_x86_Path C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319
How do I get 12.0 in there?
Answer
I needed to install MSBuild separately, then after restarting the agent the variable was there.
(From MSDN article) MSBuild is now installed as part of Visual Studio rather than as part of the .NET Framework. The current MSBuild version number is 12.0. If you want to install MSBuild separately, download the installation package from MSBuild Download.
