error MSB3086: Task could not find "AL.exe" using the SdkToolsPath
Hello,
I managed to deploy a POC , so now i'm trying to deploy a "bigger" application, but it fails to build.
I get this error :
c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(2342,9): error MSB3086: Task could not find "AL.exe" using the SdkToolsPath "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools" or the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A". Make sure the SdkToolsPath is set and the tool exists in the correct processor specific location under the SdkToolsPath and that the Microsoft Windows SDK is installed
i found some info about this, in this post ... but i can't change anything on the server of course.
I also noticed a similar issue on the appharbor forum but that parameter change doesn't work in this case.
Thanks for the help ! :)

AL.exe is the assembly linker and it's not installed on AppHarbor build servers. Are you trying to build Orchard by any chance?

I'm not trying to build Orchard, but it seems that the assembly linker's role is to make my embeded resources work. Does the fact that AL isn't installed on your servers mean that i can't have embeded resources in my project ?
If you have time, we can make a conf-call to show you what i'm trying to do (with skype or something...), that might help.
As i said earlier, im trying to get this "bigger" project to run on appharbor since your solution seems very appealing, but sadly if i can't find a way to show this to my client i'll have to find another solution, and i definetly dont want that :(
edit : sorry i didnt post in time, everything works now :) thanks a lot !

Hi,
I've tried adding the file to the directory specified in the error message. Could you building it again? Let me know if it fixes the problem.
Best regards,
Rune
