Teamcity failing to install packages via nuget

Question

SOLVED - PLEASE SEE COMMENT

I have a project on team city that is failing to install the required packages.

This has has worked for over a year but this week all builds started failing. my development process is as follows:

We use github and develop locally using visual studio. We have a windows teamcity agent that does our compiling, and a teamcity server that automatically runs builds.

I get this Error on a build:

c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(902, 9): error MSB3073: The command "nuget install C:\BuildAgent\work\MyProject\MyLibaries\Gelf4Net\Gelf4net\packages.config -o C:\BuildAgent\work\MyProject\MyLibaries\Gelf4Net\Gelf4net\Packages" exited with code 1.

In my packages.config i have the following packages i need to install:

package id="log4net" version="1.2.11"

package id="Newtonsoft.Json" version="4.5.10"

package id="RabbitMQ.Client" version="2.8.7"

I have read through many topics on the net and have tried the following:

removed all package folder from teamcity nuget (force new packages to be downloaded)
updated nuget to latest version (2.5)
re added all the references to the project and pushed
re added the project to teamcity
enabled and disabled nuget on teamcity
added the new nuget 2.5 to teamcity

If I run "nuget install C:\BuildAgent\work\MyProject\MyLibaries\Gelf4Net\Gelf4net\packages.config -o C:\BuildAgent\work\MyProject\MyLibaries\Gelf4Net\Gelf4net\Packages" on the build agent it works and installs the packages.

The projects build and run locally.

Please any suggestions or help is appreciated

I have found the issue, our projects incude many other projects and unless the packages in each project are on the same version, teamcity will fail to build. — Andrew
