Error Tfsbuilder with pipelines and pipeline components.

November 4, 2010

When compiling using the msbuild agent, I stumbled on the following error :

    C:\Users\TfsUser\AppData\Local\Temp\...\Sources\MySolution\MyProject\MyPipeline.btp : 
    error BTP0004: Component 'my component' could not be initialized. 
    Pipeline component 'myNamespace.myComponent could not be resolved (is an assembly reference missing?)

Simply cant find the assembly containing the pipeline component.

in the pipeline component postbuild event i added

    gacutil -u $(TargetPath)

    gacutil -i $(TargetPath)
