I am getting below error while building jenkins build for a .net project.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\workspace\Timesheet_UAT\FleetPride.Timesheet\FleetPride.Timesheet\FleetPride.Timesheet.csproj(440,3): error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\WebApplications\Microsoft.WebApplication.targets" was not found. Confirm that the path in the <Import> declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.
As It's trying to find the Visual studio folder on the server which is not present on the server. So is it mandatory to have the visual studio installed on the server? Below is the complete error log I am getting in jenkins.
