I am trying to remote debug windows 7 64bit machine, which runs remote debugging tools. I`m compiling my code in my local computer and then I copy it to remote machine and run it with remote debugger.

It used to work until this sunday, and I don't recall any special changes or installations done around that time. Since Sunday, everytime i'm trying to run remote debugger (F5) I get this build error

1> ------ Build started: Project: Messaging, Configuration: Debug Dynamic x64 ------

1> The operation cannot be completed because BeginBuild has not yet been called.

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

Edit : I changed "On run, when projects are not up to date" to "prompt to build" and then is seems my projects were outdated. I can't understand why.. myabe it`s the reason and the "BeginBuild has not yet been called" is just the sympthom?

Any idea?

Thanks

Got the same thing with VS Express 2013. A mere restart did the trick.
