I am trying to run Asp.net MVC project retrieved from TFS source control. I have added all assembly references and I am able to build and compile successfully without any error or warning.
But I get the following error in the browser:
Could not find a part of the path ‘C:\B8akWorkspace\B8akProject\B8akSolution\B8AK.Portal\bin\roslyn\csc.exe’.
Here is a full screenshot of the error page.
After few days of research, I understood that Roslyn is .Net compiler platform that offers advance compiling features. However, I do not understand why my build is trying to find \bin\roslyn\csc.exe because I did not configure anything related to Roslyn nor I intend to use Roslyn in my project.
The problem with the default VS2015 templates is that the compiler isn’t actually copied to the tfr\bin\roslyn\ directory, but rather the {outdir}\roslyn\ directory
Add this code in your .csproj file:
<Target Name="CopyRoslynFiles" AfterTargets="AfterBuild" Condition="!$(Disable_CopyWebApplication) And '$(OutDir)' != '$(OutputPath)'"> <ItemGroup> <RoslynFiles Include="$(CscToolPath)\*" /> </ItemGroup> <MakeDir Directories="$(WebProjectOutputDir)\bin\roslyn" /> <Copy SourceFiles="@(RoslynFiles)" DestinationFolder="$(WebProjectOutputDir)\bin\roslyn" SkipUnchangedFiles="true" Retries="$(CopyRetryCount)" RetryDelayMilliseconds="$(CopyRetryDelayMilliseconds)" /> </Target>
