问题
I'm trying to set up a nightly build for one of my company's products. When I execute the build, it fails after 45 or so seconds, giving the error "Error parsing the nested project section in solution file.
This is the log from the build:

And this is the log from MSBuild:

The solution builds correctly from within Visual Studio.
回答1:
Try to remove and then re-add some file, to cause sln file to be regenerated. This way I got build succeeded. My sln file was in an incorrect format for some reason.

I just spent all afternoon on this and found a contributing factor. I found the entry in the .sln file referencing a project that did not exist in the solution. Nor was that phantom project's GUID referenced anywhere else in the .sln file.
Searching returned a couple tricks, such as http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/da-DK/msbuild/thread/55ab07ef-9179-4cc6-b2d0-63fcf088d8ba
Those "seemed" not to work, as local builds still succeeded and the Team Build still failed. Then I noticed that line 6199 in my solution was always at fault, even though that line was changing over time. It turned out the Team Build Definition had Clean Workspace set to Outputs instead of All. After changing it to All, the Team Build worked again.

If you have modified the file manually or through merged tool, there might be an empty line left, which is OK with Visual Studio compilation, but fails in automation builds.
回答4:
For me renaming my Project and shorten the projectnames helped. It seems that, depending in which target directory tfs is dropping your solution, the max. lenght 256 for file names can be exceeded.
