TFS 2012 Build “Access to Path Denied”

Question

I’m using TFS 2012 Build and running into an error

Access to the path is denied

The solution being built contains about 15 proje

Answer 1

I found the same problem which occurred after the build tried to overwrite files in the "Working Directory" it had created in a previous attempt to build. (set in the Agent)

I resolved this by manually deleting the output folder it created (in my case [Working Directory]\Binaries) before attempting the build.

This can be done automatically by changing the Build Definition. Under Process---2.Basic---Clean Workspace set this to the Outputs option
