Problem

Jenkins dashboard shows following simian analysis:

But after clicking one item I get:

Setup license stuff for PostSharp 2.1

Problem

Normally PostSharp runs fine on unattended build servers. So on our global Jenkins continuous integration server PostSharp does the job.

But on my local TeamCity continuous integration server I got the following error:

MSB4067: The element beneath element is unrecognized.

Problem

Our global Jenkins continuous integration server throws this error during compile step. My local TeamCity continuous integration server runs fine. What is the difference.

Background

I integrate some static code analysis steps via MSBuild-targets in the csproj files.

Using NuGet in a MSBuild-target to have the packages at the last stand

Motivation

Encouraged from the article “Using NuGet without committing packages to source control” I decided to wrap the NuGet-call in a MSBuild target instead of using a pre-build event.

Because we also trigger FxCop and StyleCop via targets this fits better in our project management.
