MSBuild.exe output encoding

Question

I use MSBuild.exe for building solution on machine with russian language. But in TeamCity build log all russian chars in wrong encoding. How to setup MSBuild.exe for properly output (UTF-8 for example)?

Answer 1

Check /fileloggerparameters command line parameter here. It should be the same for console logger.

e.g. MyLog.log file with diagnostic verbosity using UTF-8 encoding:

/fileLoggerParameters:LogFile=MyLog.log;Encoding=UTF-8;Verbosity=diagnostic
