Error 6212 On Build of Imported VS 2010 project

We've recently decided to look into a move to VS 2013 from VS 2010 and have discovered the missing Setup & Deployment Projects within VS. So we went about attempting to import one of our existing Setup projects from VS 2010. Although we were able to import the project, we ran into a few issues.

First, the build indicated an error with a prerequisite of .Net 2.0 and an inability to find the necessary files. The error text stated we should remove the reference from the project, yet the only reference we could find was in the project file. When we removed that reference manually, then rebuilt the setup project, that error disappeared but we then received an error "Internal build error 6212".

Since that time, we've been unable to resolve the error and our setup project will not build and I can find no resolution on the web.

Help!

Hi Jim,

There might be some dependencies missing after the setup project was upgraded to newer version.

Kindly right-click the solution, open project dependencies dialog and check all that which is missing from the current setup.

Please let me know if this did not help.

Thanks,
Chaitra
