I've been trying to run the dotnet build command on a migrated .net core project (from 1.0.0-preview2-003131 to 1.0.4). I followed the steps for migrating the project mentioned here, and the solution builds using Visual Studio 2017. However, using the dotnet CLI command 'dotnet build' gives me the following error:
C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\1.0.4\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(2867,5): error MSB4216: Could not run the "GenerateResource" task because MSBuild could not create or connect to a task host with runtime "CLR4" and architecture "x86". Please ensure that (1) the requested runtime and/or architecture are available on the machine, and (2) that the required executable "C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\1.0.4\MSBuild.exe" exists and can be run.
I have migrated a couple of other services earlier, and after sorting out a couple of package dependencies, the CLI commands worked just fine. I checked the sdk location mentioned in the error, and I couldn't find MSBuild.exe (I did find the MSBuild.dll and the MsBuild.deps file though). I need the CLI commands to work for the CI/CD setup that I have. Any help with deciphering and fixing this error is much appreciated.
System Details:
- Visual Studio 2017 Community
- dotnet --version --> 1.0.4
The migration steps I followed:
- Changed the sdk version in global.json
- Ran the dotnet migrate command
- Opened the solution in VS 2017 and built it. The build was successful.
Edit: I assumed that this was a dotnet core project. Apparently (even before running the dotnet migrate command), one of the projects inside this solution was already targeting .Net 4.5.2. The relevant .csproj file is below:

The original solution compiles and builds without any problems. I'm a bit new to this, but I'm a bit confused as to how a solution which has projects targeting two separate vesions of dotnet compiles (and why, on migrating, the build process fails). Should I be running the migrate commands separately? (only on .xproj projects)?
The .NET Core build of MSBuild that is included in the .NET Core CLI is capable of building classic projects on windows machines as well as long as they target .NET Framework >= 4.0, reference assemblies are installed and no special targets / tasks are used.
In your case, you tried to compile a resource with a different architecture than the host MSBuild instance is. This is worked around in SDK-based projects beginning in the upcoming 2.0 tools but classic projects rely on MSBuild to launch an additional process using a different CLR - which is not supported on .NET Core.
The easy way to work around it is to not use the dotnet commands to restore / build the solution, but their msbuild equivalents using the msbuild.exe installed with visual studio using the developer command prompt. (e.g. => msbuild /t:Restore, msbuild, msbuild /t:Publish /p:Configuration=Release etc.).
Another workaround would be to edit the problematic csproj file to add this to the <Project> in the "old" project:
<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(MSBuildRuntimeType)' == 'Core'">
<GenerateResourceMSBuildArchitecture>CurrentArchitecture</GenerateResourceMSBuildArchitecture>
<GenerateResourceMSBuildRuntime>CurrentRuntime</GenerateResourceMSBuildRuntime>
</PropertyGroup>
There is an issue on MSBuild's GitHub repo about this problem.
