I have a Visual Studio solution file that uses VCBuild.exe (it's a VS 2008 solution).

I'm trying to figure out how to get VCBuild.exe on the build machine. I've installed the Windows 7.1 and Windos 6.1 SDKs,b ut VCBuild.exe isn't there.

Do I really have to install VS 2008? I installed the SDK suggested in the error message.

[c_utils:Rebuild] VCBuild
[11:10:19][VCBuild] C:\BuildAgent\work\8a052fdddf5aac36\Project.sln.cache(392, 5): error MSB3411: Could not load the Visual C++ component "VCBuild.exe". If the component is not installed, either 1) install the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5, or 2) install Microsoft Visual Studio 2008.

  • It is a Visual Studio build tool, pretty evident from the error message. Made to build files that only Visual Studio can create. The SDK only supports make files. – Hans Passant May 07 '14 at 17:39
  • @HansPassant "pretty evident from the error message". Is it? It says one of my options is to install the Microsoft Windows SDK, which I tried and didn't work. – Stealth Rabbi May 07 '14 at 20:04
