I got NAnt working this morning. The problem was in the following line
<property name="Platform" value="Any CPU" overwrite="true"/>
I didn't have a space between 'Any CPU' so it was failing.
I know the next question is specific to MSBuild but I will ask here since
it seems a lot of people use it. What do I need to add to get msbuild to
suppress warnings? I know the correct answer to the question is 'Fix the
warnings' however that isn't possible for some of these solutions. I know
when I run msbuild from the command line I can use /noconsolelogger, but I
am not sure how to add the NAnt tag for that. Or if there is a better way
to just suppress warnings, but still show errors and positive messages?

Did you try it without passing any properties? Frankly I use the exec task
to run MSBuild.
Can you build with MSbuild from your command line? Be sure that works so
you can rule this out as an issue.

Somehow I managed to download NAnt .85 and not NAntContrib (I wondered why
it looked exactly like the other binary I had, size and all). Now I am
getting a better error message (I think)
build.FACCBase:

The installation instruction for nantcontrib say to copy the
<nantcontrib>\bin files in the <nant>\bin folder. Did you do that?

I guess I am missing something simple. I went out and downloaded
nantcontrib 0.85. I tried adding the following to my build.FACCBase
target
<msbuild project="FACCBase.sln">
<property
name="Configuration" value="debug"/>
</msbuild>
And now I am getting the error Invalid element <msbuild>. Unknown task or
datatype.
I put NAntContrib in a different spot that I put NAnt 0.9, and changed my
nant.bat file to reflect the new location. What did I not do correctly?
I think once I overcome this initial hurdle I will be good to go.

We've found that it's easiest to just use the MSBuild task, rather than
the solution task, which calls out to MSBuild itself.

I recently had a friend recommend NAnt to me. The project I am working on
has 10 different solutions to it, and each solution usually has multiple
projects within that will output dll files for the final solution to use.
I have a very simple .build file right now:
<project name="Solution Build Example" default="rebuild">
<property name="configuration" value="release"/>
<target name="clean" description="Delete all previously compiled
binaries.">
<delete>
<fileset>
<include name="**/bin/**" />
<include name="**/obj/**" />
</fileset>
</delete>
</target>
<target name="build" description="Build all targets.">
<call target="build.FACCBase"/>
</target>
<target name="rebuild" depends="clean, build" />
<target name="build.FACCBase">
<solution configuration="${configuration}"
solutionfile="FACCBase.sln">
</solution>
</target>
</project>
The clean part is working fine, however when I get to the build portion I
get errors:
Solution format of file 'C:\TESTTFS\FACCBase\FACCBase.sln' is not
supported.
I am sure that you all will need more information to help me, so if you
tell me what I am missing to get this working I will provide as much as I
can. The solution in question has 8 projects and an active config of
Debug|Any CPU
Thanks.
