Msbuild error: failed to start monitoring file changes

Question

when i run Msbuild web.csproj i get the following error:

AfterBuild target> -> C:..\web\obj\debug\csautoparameterize\original\web.config : error ASPconfig: an error occurred loading a configuration file: Directory C:..\web\obj\debug\csautoparameterize\original\Configs' does not exist. Fail to start monitoring file changes.

if i open visual studio (2010)..clean solution and rebuild, its fine. if i try to do publish via visual studio, this error returns and i cant build again (until i clean solution).

any ideas?

thanks

Answer 1

Is that a network drive? I was getting a similar error when I had my SVN working copy on a network drive, apparently the folder monitoring service for the test server completely freaks out when it's not a physical drive.
