I\'m trying to get MSBuild 2010 to publish a web app to a specific location. I can get it to publish the deployment package to a particular path, but the deployment package
I think you're using the wrong property. Try the OutDir property instead.
Personally, I call MsBuild.exe directly instead of using the msbuild tag:
MSBuildPath - The path to MsBuild.exe (allows you to target any framework version you want)
ProjectFile - The relative path to your project file
LocalDeployPath - The local folder where everthing will be outputed. Your copy script will use also use this as the source directory.
SolutionConfiguration - Release, Debug
