Error building solution MSB4057

Question

I'm trying to build my solution in Visual Studio, but I keep getting this error message:

Error MSB4057 The target "ContainerWaitForWarmupCompletion" does not exist in the project. OnlineShop.Catalog.API D:\path\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets 894

I've tried reinstalling the SDK, but it didn't fix the problem. The weird thing is that everything works fine in Rider. I'm using docker-compose. Any suggestions on how to solve this? Thank you.

Hello @Dominik Brdak ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Looks the error is related to container(docker). Is there anything changed in the container?

Are you using any extensions, command line tools or external packages?

Are there any special or customized settings in your project file(for example, for C#, in the .csproj file).

Please try following:

1. Restart VS.
2. Restart Windows.
3. Close VS, go to your solution folder and remove the hidden .vs folder, reopen your project and rebuild your project.
4. If you are using NuGet packages in your project, please try to clean NuGet cache and restore(rebuild your project) the packages.
5. Try to create a new project and build it, check if the same error will appear.

Best Regards,

Tianyu
