Hi,

What Bob said.  Do the paths in the registry exist on the filesystem?

I know for a fact that you can build this stuff without Visual Studio, but I run out of time to investigate. I have twice ended up having to install the IDE and be move on.

Best

Julian.

Do you have visual studio installed on the one that is working… and not on the one that isn’t.?

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

Julian

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?
