Category: Framework support Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: André Næss (hisnessness) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: 3.5 Support failing on machine without VS2008 installed Initial Comment: I have a build server on which I'm trying to use the latest 0.86-beta1 release. Trying to build my solution gave me the following error: [property] Target framework changed to "Microsoft .NET framework 3.5". BUILD FAILED INTERNAL ERROR System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at NAnt.Core.FrameworkInfo.get_Version() at NAnt.Core.Project.UpdateTargetFrameworkProperties() at NAnt.Core.Tasks.PropertyTask.ExecuteTask() at NAnt.Core.Task.Execute() at NAnt.Core.Project.InitializeProjectDocument(XmlDocument doc) at NAnt.Core.Project.Execute() at NAnt.Core.Project.Run() Please send bug report to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I found a fairly simple fix, in the nant.exe.config, I changed the reading of the sdkInstallRoot registry key (in the framework 3.5 node) to: <readregistry property="sdkInstallRoot" key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MicrosoftSDKs\Windows\v6.0A\InstallationFolder" hive="LocalMachine" failonerror="false" /> And the problem was solved. Now, I'm using TeamCity as the CI-solution on this server, and when setting it up I had some issues with not being able to run builds at all. The server was complaining about a missing "al.exe". To get around this I copied the contents of the v6.0A SDK folder from my machine (which has VS2008 installed) to the build server. I also manually set up the above registry entry. I'm not really sure where this problem is rooted. Is it simply me that haven't installed all the necessary stuff on my build server (I don't see Visual Studio as necessary stuff!), or is there something wrong with the .NET 3.5 framework installer. Or should NAnt use a different registry key? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=402868&aid=1902098&group_id=31650 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
