BTDF v5.7 GetSoftwarePaths target resolves to V2.0 not v4.0

jasonhyland commented 5 years ago

Hi, I am getting System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'xxxx' or one of its dependencies. This assembly is built by a runtime newer than the currently loaded runtime and cannot be loaded.. *\Framework\BizTalkDeploymentFramework.targets(1461,5): error MSB3073: The command "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\installutil.exe /ShowCallStack "xxxx"" exited with code -1.

Target GetSoftwarePaths: is pointing to v2.0 framework Using .NET Framework Install Path 'C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727'. .net install path is some how pointing to v2.0 version, i think this needs to point to 4.0 version

Do I need to specify a property to get it to resolve to V4? Any help appreciated!

That would happen if you're executing MSBuild.exe < v4.0. Is this in Visual Studio, from a custom script..?

Here's what doesn't make sense -- the .NET Framework Install Path comes from a built-in MSBuild task, GetFrameworkPath. It uses the "Path" output, which "Contains the path to the latest framework assemblies, if any are available." "If several versions of the .NET Framework are installed, this task returns the version that MSBuild is designed to run on."

I've always seen it follow that behavior. Are you absolutely certain that MSBuild.exe is running from v4? Are you getting this from a deployment in Visual Studio, from an MSI execution, other?

In the btdfproj file, adding the ToolsVersion="4.0" solves this issue and uses the v4.0 .NET framework. As in <Project xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" DefaultTargets="Installer" **ToolsVersion="4.0"**>

If Jason can rebuild the package with the above update to the btdfproj file, the resulted output should work correctly. I had this issue when I tried to deploy the solution from Visual Studio.

Thanks Ashwin, this fixed it. Should have read the "upgrading" section in help better.
