Debugging a build?

Hi,

 

I am running into a problem with my build script when running it through TFS build and using WiX. 

 

When I run msbuild on my tfsbuild.proj file on my local machine everything works fine and I am able to execute all of my tasks. This means that all of the build variables are passed correctly to each task.

 

When I build through TFS most of the build works except when it gets to the WiX tasks at which point it seems that they aren't being passed the files from my item group.

 

Is there some way to output a modified version of the tfsbuild.proj file that has all of the variables replaced with the replacement values and paths? 

 

Additionally, how does one run a tfs version of the build? The file layout that comes from TFS when you get sources is different than that of what TFS creates when it runs its build and when the build is running the folders are changed to reflect the differences, but it does mean that one can't run msbuild at the command line with the same folder layout.

 

Cheers,

Clint
