Julian,

 

Thanks.  This was very insightful.

 

However, I have a conflict that I don't know how to resolve.

 

On the machine for which Nant Version 0.86 works with 'net-3.5'
framework specified, I have Windows SDK Version 6.0a installed.

 

On the machine for which Nant Version 0.86 does not work with 'net-3.5'
framework specified, I have Windows SDK Version 6.1 installed.
Supposedly this is the version of the framework for .NET 3.5.

 

I checked the registry key:

 

SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft
SDKs\v6.0A\WinSDKNetFxTools\InstallationFolder

 

This is present on both machines and references the 6.0A or 6.1 version
of the SDK respectively.

 

It seems counter intuitive that I should need to revert BACK to SDK
Version 6.0A from Version 6.1 in order for Nant 0.86 to operate
properly.

 

Is there some reason or explanation why Nant 0.86 might NOT be
compatible with SDK Version 6.1?  I would think that this problem
manifests itself 'the other way 'round'.

 

Any other ideas or clues would be greatly appreciated.

Having just spent this evening wrestling with the same issue, I can tell
you that they come from the registry.  Have a look at this post:

They don't map to environment variables and the application uses them
extensively.

 

Jumping in late here but I presume that you'll want to install at least
the .NET 3.5 SDK to make your build work.  I just ended up installing a
Visual Studio 2008 and the SDK to support the project I've been working
on.

 

 Best

Where or how does Nant get the value, used in Nant.exe.config, for

'sdkInstallRoot' and 'installroot' ?

 

Do these map to environment variables?  Are they required?
