Team Build ignores MSBuild arguments

Question

I have created a new team build definition. On every checkin, the build happens on a TFS server (another build controller). After the build completes, I want to publish the files. The MSBuild input arguments used are /p:DeployOnBuild=true;PublishProfile=QADeploy. QADeploy is the publishing profile created.

I expect the team build to succeed which happens. But the successful build does not publish or attempt to publish the files to the destination folder. Any ideas why, the publish via publish profile is not triggered?

Answer 1

Weird, but adding the Visual Studio Version resolved the problem:

/p:DeployOnBuild=true /p:PublishProfile=QADeploy /p:VisualStudioVersion=11.0
