Running a build on TFS 2010 getting error "No outputs for project ..."
I have installed InstallShield LE on my PC with VS 2010 and on our build server with TFS 2010.
I have created an InstallShield project in VS 2010 and it buillds the msi and setup.exe without any problems, but when the InstallShield project is checked into TFS and run there I get the following error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\InstallShield\2010Limited\InstallShield.targets (89): No outputs for project "Service1" were provided, but the installation project references "Service1.Primary output".
Does anyone have any ideas?
Further info:
The referenced project 'service1' is a windows service project

I have done some digging around and found something a bit odd.
A snippet from my .isl file:
The 2nd tag contains a path which is local only to my machine, namely
'Trunk-Workspace'
A snippet from my .isl file:
CommonFilesFolder | 1 | ||
Service1 | ..\..\..\..\..\Trunk-Workspace\Source\Interfaces\Service1\Service1.csproj | 2 | |
Service1 | ..\..\..\Trunk\Source\Interfaces\Service\Service1.csproj | 2 | |
ISPROJECTDIR | 1 | ||
ISProductFolder | 1 | ||
ISProjectDataFolder | 1 | ||
ISProjectFolder | 1 | ||
ProgramFilesFolder | 1 | ||
SystemFolder | 1 | ||
WindowsFolder | 1 |
The 2nd
'Trunk-Workspace'

Hi,
Could you kindly let us know if you are coming across the same error message when performing the build through TFS with any other project.
You may try including a Windows Forms application project or an ASP.NET Web application project with an InstallShield Limited Edition project and built it through the TFS server.
Kindly let us know if you are coming across the same error message.
Thanks,
Lenwin

It seems okay for other project types.

Hi,
Could you kindly create a new project which includes the windows service project and check if you are coming across the same issue.
I did a quick test at my end and I was able to build the solution successfully through the TFS server.
