TFS 2015 Update 2 On Prem.

Using Zip A Folder Build Step

Getting the following error: 2016-08-15T13:49:11.5749241Z ##[error]The given path's format is not supported. Does it matter if there are sub directories in the folder I am trying to zip?

Properties Page: Path to Folder: Tried hard coded as shown and using TFS variables to same path e:\Build\Hybris\hybris\bin\Custom\8\a\ Path to the zip file: Tried hard coded as shown and using TFS variables to Staging path e:\Builds\$(BuildDefinitionName)_$(Date:yyyyMMdd)$(Rev:.r)\custom.zip

Advanced: Overwrite zip file: True

Control Options: Enabled True, all others false

I've done a dir of the folder that is to be zip to make sure there are files, results listed in attached file:

1_Build.txt

It uses the .net compression function which is a one liner and it does handle sub directories. Please run these two commands with variables set properly to see whether it is succeeding or not.

Add-Type -A System.IO.Compression.FileSystem [IO.Compression.ZipFile]::CreateFromDirectory($pathToZipFolder, $pathToZipFile)
