My team have got a Visual Studio solution with 2 projects in it - 1 is an Umbraco website project, the other is a data access layer named Core. The Umbraco project has the data access layer as a dependency at build time, with the Umbraco project being published to an Azure Website.
We are using publish profiles downloaded from Azure and imported into the solution and saved as .pubxml format - standard.
When we do a publish inside Visual Studio, the Umbraco project builds and compiles the Core project as a .dll before deploying to Azure. This works fine.
However, this project is using TeamCity for continuous integration with the solution built using the Visual Studio (sln) build step. Before we introduced the second Core project it had been building/deploying correctly.
Since creating the second Core project as a dependency, the build now fails in TeamCity only. It appears to be searching for the publish profile in both projects when we have only saved it in the Umbraco project (the one we wish to deploy).
I'm unsure where the issue lies. We only want the publish profile to apply to the Umbraco project we wish to deploy, not the Core one which just needs building/compiling.
Here is the TeamCity build config output including the MSBuild output:
