My laptop died so I restored my code to my desktop. I use Xamarin for VS 2017. When I compile I get a "java exited with code 1" error, the logs contain the following:

This is not the entire log (won't fit here), but you should get the idea.
I have no idea what these errors mean, am I missing some package registrations or some such?
Turns out the installation folder on Windows 10 is different than Windows 7. I restored my backup-up to \User\\source\repos and everything compiled and deployed successfully.
After Migrating a project from 2008 to 2012, while build or rebuild facing this issue.
Detailed Error as follows,

(According to the error messages, they are all common errors. I could not give the most direct correct answer for this issue, I can only give you some troubleshootings. In order to avoid losing contact in the round-trip comments, I post those troubleshootings as answer instead of comments.)
To resolve this issue, please try following methods:
Add <NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy enabled="true"/> into the VS2012 DevEnv configuration file, you'll find it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe.config
Adding the following under the first property group in the Project file:
<PropertyGroup>
<GenerateResourceNeverLockTypeAssemblies>true</GenerateResourceNeverLockTypeAssemblies>
</ProjectGroup>
If you have app.config file in your project, please try to add following into it:
<runtime>
<NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy enabled="true"/>
<legacyCasPolicy enabled="true"/>
</runtime>
If above not helps you, please try to reinstall the Visual Studio 2012.
Hope this helps.
I am facing an issue with Visual Studio 2015. When I click on new project/add new file, I get an error message. I get this error even for clicking few menu items.
Set property 'System.Windows.ResourceDictionary.DeferrableContent' threw an exception.
I even get few more errors like:
The 'XamlDesignerPackage' package did not load correctly.
The problem may have been caused by a configuration change or by the installation of another extension. You can get more information by examining the file 'C:\Users\MY PC\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ActivityLog.xml'.
Restarting Visual Studio could help resolve this issue.
I have tried repair and reinstall(uninstall and install again) both didn't have any effect.
These are the errors found in ActivityLog.xml

In trying to get to the button of this I did the following:
1 ) In VS2013 I created a new Ax EP WebApplication project and added \Web\Web Files\Web Controls\TSTimesheetEntryPage to the project.This added 4 more dependent files to the project
3) Build the solution
Now I get compiler errors:
Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Portal' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft.Dynamics' (are you missing an assembly reference?)
Error 2 The type or namespace name 'EPFormAction' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I tried resolving these errors by adding the EPApplicationProxies and the TSTimesheetProxies to the project by right clinking on my project select Add Ep Proxy project.However, the compiler starts to complain about duplicate types.
'Microsoft.Dynamics.Portal.Application.Proxy.TSTimesheetLine' exists in both 'c:\Users\lawrence\AppData\Local\Temp\Microsoft Dynamics AX\C Sharp Projects\EPApplicationProxies\bin\Debug\EPApplicationProxies.dll' and 'c:\Users\lawrence\AppData\Local\Temp\Microsoft Dynamics AX\C Sharp Projects\TSTimesheetProxies\bin\Debug\TSTimesheetProxies.dll' c:\users\lawrence.ntow\documents\visual studio 2013\Projects\debugTimesheet\debugTimesheet\TSTimesheetEntryPage.ascx.cs 22 debugTimesheet
Any help will be much appreciated.
I'm currently working on a build for a project, but I'm facing difficulties with the TFS Build.
I just want to create a zip package, using a TFS Build, with parameters from IIS Express.
CSPROJ configuration:
IIS Express is present on my machine and on the build server (I can access to the *.svc files in the project).
And all is on source control.
When I use the "Build Deployment Package" on my machine, I've got the zip.
When I use the "Build Deployment Package" on the build server, I've got the zip.
When I use the MSBuild's command line on both, I've got the zip.
The command line in question :
"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe" "C:\WORKSPACES\[...]\Project.csproj" /p:Platform=AnyCPU;Configuration=Release /p:DeployTarget=Package /p:DeployOnBuild=true;DefaultPackageFileName=ZipName.zip
But when I put the same command line in a build, it fails:
"C:\Builds\2\[...]\Project.csproj" (default target) (1) ->
(PackageUsingManifest target) ->
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.0\Web\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(3009,5): error : Web deployment task failed.(Object of type 'manifest' and path 'C:\Builds\2\Project Release\Binaries\_PublishedWebsites\Project_Package\Project.SourceManifest.xml' cannot be created.)

I know I'm missing something, but I don't see what... so, if you have suggestions...it will be very welcome! :)
The tfs build did not run with the same account than me when I'm logged on the build server.
Is IIS Express is well launch with a tfs build ?
When I look in C:\Users\svcTfsBuild\Documents, there is no IISExpress directory, like with my user (svcTfsBuild is the service account for TFS Build).
The main goal:
Obtain a zip package with a tfs build with those parameters (parameters.xml within the zip package).
OR
Have a zip package where we can specify Application Pool and Physical Path when importing.
Like this:
<parameters>
<parameter name="IIS Web Application Name" defaultValue="Default Web Site/Project" tags="IisApp">
<parameterEntry kind="ProviderPath" scope="AppHostConfig" match="^ProjectTest/Project$" />
<parameterEntry kind="ProviderPath" scope="contentPath" match="^C:\\WORKSPACES\\[...]\\obj\\Release\\Package\\PackageTmp$" />
<parameterEntry kind="ProviderPath" scope="setAcl" match="^C:\\WORKSPACES\\[...]\\obj\\Release\\Package\\PackageTmp$" />
</parameter>
<parameter name="IIS Web Application Pool Name" defaultValue="ASP.NET v4.0">
<parameterEntry kind="DeploymentObjectAttribute" scope="application" match="application[#applicationPool='Clr4IntegratedAppPool']/#applicationPool" />
</parameter>
<parameter name="IisVirtualDirectoryPhysicalPath" defaultValue="D:\CompanyName\Project" tags="PhysicalPath">
<parameterEntry kind="DestinationVirtualDirectory" scope=".*" match="^C:\\WORKSPACES\\[...]$" />
</parameter>
</parameters>
Note : we can's specify the configuration in a parameters.xml directly on the csproj because the workspace are not the same on our machines, on the tfs build server...
I hope this is clear
EDIT: suggestion from drk
Like you said, I run the command line from the service account, and got this, in particular:

Done Building Project "C:\WORKSPACES\[...]\Project.csproj" (default targets) -- FAILED.
Build FAILED.
I've checked the service account (SvcTfsBuild in my case).
He has full control over the workspace (so the source code).
And my account and the SvcTfsBuild account are on the same groups (local administrator).
But the TFS BUILD log (verbose mode) did not show any permission problem...
EDIT 2013/03/25
I've uncheck the checkbox "Use IIS Express" in the Web tab.
The build generate the good zip package.
So, I asume there is a problem only with IIS Express.
In the build, I've had an "InvokeProcess" on the sequence "Run On Agent", just after "CreateLabel".
It launch ISS Express with those arguments :
/site:Project-Site
In the log file, I've got a Result to 0 (so, I assume ISS Express is well launch, if not, it is supposed to throw an exception).
But, if the command line is not well formed or wrong (ie: with /site and /path wich cannot be combined), the result is also 0.
And if I launch ISS Express that way, the build is stopped (iisexpress wait a manual action to stop or just listen).
EDIT 2 2013/03/25
To launch IIS Express in the same time than the build, I've made this :
On the Parallel, I've got a variable named "BuildFinished" wich is set to True in the Finally of the build process (on left).
But, I've again the same error (Site '' does not exist).
I've also find a difference between the two Project.SourceManifest.xml when build through "Build Deployment Package" (in VS2010) and through the TFBUILD.
Build Deployment Package :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<sitemanifest>
<appHostConfig path="Project-Site/Project" />
<contentPath path="C:\WORKSPACES\Project\obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp" />
<setAcl path="C:\WORKSPACES\Project\obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp" setAclResourceType="Directory" />
<setAcl path="C:\WORKSPACES\Project\obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp" setAclUser="anonymousAuthenticationUser" setAclResourceType="Directory" />
</sitemanifest>
TFBUILD :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<sitemanifest>
<appHostConfig path="/Project" />
<contentPath path="C:\Builds\1\Project\obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp" />
<setAcl path="C:\Builds\1\Project\obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp" setAclResourceType="Directory" />
<setAcl path="C:\Builds\1\Project\obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp" setAclUser="anonymousAuthenticationUser" setAclResourceType="Directory" />
</sitemanifest>
The path value is not the same.
After a couple of trys, I think the problem is between IIS Express and MSDeploy wich can't work together (this is the one saying "Site '' does not exist.").
So, instead of thrying to make it work, we change our mind to use a configuration wich works: modifying the csproj during the build processs in order to use IIS.
Step 1: IIS on the build server
Create an application pool: the name and the Framework version are the two things that matters. Nothing more.
Create the application: name and application pool are important. You can use C:\temp as physical path.
Step 2: Build's definition
You have two choices: create a custom build activity (better one) or do it inside the xaml (ugly one).
The goal, is to have the followings steps:
On the "Run On Agent" sequence, just after the "If Create Label"
Remove the readonly attribute on the targeted csproj (the one on the workspace created by TFS)
Read the csproj's content
Replace the following XML tags
<UseIISExpress>True</UseIISExpress> by <UseIISExpress>False</UseIISExpress>
<UseIIS>False</UseIIS> by <UseIIS>True</UseIIS>
<IncludeIisSettings>False</IncludeIisSettings> by <IncludeIisSettings>true</IncludeIisSettings>
<IISUrl>{IIS Express URL}</IISUrl> by <IISUrl>{IIS URL}</IISUrl>
/!\ Beware: the booleans can be True or true!
/!\ Beware2: if using Cassini, the IISUrl's tag may have a word wrap, like:
`<IISUrl>
</IISUrl>`
This happened only with one of the 4 dev's machine.
{IIS Express URL}: is like http://localhost:8080/ or http://localhost:8080/Application with IIS Express or empty with Cassini.
{IIS URL}: is like http://localhost/Application.
And finally, overwrite the csproj (remember, the one in the TFS's workspace, not the on on source control) with the modify content.
{IIS Express URL} and {IIS URL} can be arguments from the build, but only if the build take the csproj one by one (1 build = 1 zip package, so 1 csproj have to be modified).
With that solution (I think there is a better one that I don't know), we use a configuration that we know it works.
When the zip package will be import in IIS, the application pool and the physical path can be change.
And this is our goal.
Hope this helps.
