    copied!<p>I have three Visual Studio solutions. The first is configured to build as <em>Release</em>, and the other two are set to build as <em>Debug</em>.</p> <p>When running a simple <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSBuild" rel="nofollow noreferrer">MSBuild</a> script explicitly stating the configuration to build (Debug), the first project is still built as Release.</p> <p>Sample script:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Target Name="Build"&gt; &lt;ItemGroup&gt; &lt;ProjectToBuild Include="$(SolutionsPath)\Solution1.sln"/&gt; &lt;ProjectToBuild Include="$(SolutionsPath)\Core\Solution2.sln"/&gt; &lt;ProjectToBuild Include="$(SolutionsPath)\UI\Solution3.sln"/&gt; &lt;/ItemGroup&gt; &lt;MSBuild Projects="@(ProjectToBuild)" Targets="Rebuild" Properties="Configuration=Debug;Platform=Any CPU"/&gt; &lt;/Target&gt; </code></pre> <p>I have tried variations of the above such as the following, but I always end up with the same result.</p> <pre><code>&lt;Target Name="Build"&gt; &lt;ItemGroup&gt; &lt;ProjectToBuild Include="$(SolutionsPath)\Solution1.sln"&gt; &lt;Properties&gt;Configuration=Debug&lt;/Properties&gt; &lt;/ProjectToBuild&gt; &lt;ProjectToBuild Include="$(SolutionsPath)\Core\Solution2.sln"&gt; &lt;Properties&gt;Configuration=Debug&lt;/Properties&gt; &lt;/ProjectToBuild&gt; &lt;ProjectToBuild Include="$(SolutionsPath)\UI\Solution3.sln"&gt; &lt;Properties&gt;Configuration=Debug&lt;/Properties&gt; &lt;/ProjectToBuild&gt; &lt;/ItemGroup&gt; &lt;MSBuild Projects="@(ProjectToBuild)" Targets="Rebuild" Properties="Platform=Any CPU"/&gt; &lt;/Target&gt; </code></pre> <p>I note there is a similar question, <em><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/474403">MSBuild task - Build fails because one solution being built in release instead of debug</a></em>, but that is specific to TFS and Teambuild. I am talking pure MSBuild with a simple project file created from scratch.</p> <p>How can I fix this problem?</p>
