Team Foundation Latest Version Number Exception: Path does not exist

FinalBuilder Discussion
1

Hi,

When I run the "Team Foundation Latest Version Number" action, I get the "Path does not exist exception", however there is no information about the missing path. I'm attaching the action's property value list and exception. The build script is being run via TFS build.

Is there anything that I am missing with this action?

 

Thanks,

Zvonko

Hi Zvonko,
I looks like the path to the ‘tf’ executable isn’t set. On your build server, can you please open FinalBuilder and go to Tools -> Options -> Version Control Systems -> Team Foundation Source Control. This should force FinalBuilder to populate the ‘Path to executable’ value with something like c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\tf.exe

Cheers,

Ben
