  1. Stuck when starting to build

    Bizarrely, since my last restart of Windows, NCrunch seems to be working again. Good news, but frustrating in that I don't know why! Fingers crossed this is the end of the problems. Thanks for your patience :-) Julian

  2. Stuck when starting to build

    > Does the engine give any indication as to which project is being built? Does the Processing Queue Window show any build tasks stuck in progress? No, nothing. The Processing Queue Window is empty. Interestingly, if I build the solution while the NCrunch Build icon is spinning, NCrunch pauses - a…

  3. Stuck when starting to build

    Yes, as I think I said early on, the problem project is referencing a legacy C++ ActiveX control, which I can't (yet) do without. But I've now ignored that project and anything that references it - so shouldn't that now be irrelevant? No, I'm afraid there's nothing apparent in the Event Viewer. …

  4. Stuck when starting to build

    OK, I ignored the problem project and a test project which depended on it. The projects are now all loading - but I'm back to the original issue, where it never gets past "1 build process is being processed". Looking at running processes, I just have nCrunch.EngineHost451.x64.exe. Julian

  5. Stuck when starting to build

    I had all kinds of problems with the VS2015 update (hanging during initial setup), but after a load of messing around I got it sorted, and VS2013/NCrunch are both now running again. But I'm afraid I'm now back to the original issue, with NCrunch hanging while loading a particular project in my so…

    Thanks Remco, I'll try that tomorrow and let you know :-) Julian

  7. Stuck when starting to build

    Remco, Sorry for the delay since the last post. I moved house a couple of days after your last reply, then had a couple of weeks with no internet, then Christmas happened, unpacking and so on. Just before we moved, I made the following notes ready to post to you: *** The BuildHost proces…

  8. Stuck when starting to build

    Hi Remco, Sorry it took a while to reply, work got in the way. > Am I correct in my understanding that you're able to observe the problem with the 'Instrument output assembly' both disabled and enabled? That's right. > And that the issue seems to have an intermittent side to it? Sort…

  9. Stuck when starting to build

    Hi Remco, I spent a couple of hours trying the steps you suggested. Yes, VS can build the projects fine, and I can build the solution from the command line. I made a small dummy project as suggested, using .NET 3.5 - and it's fine. Switching it to 4.51 is also fine. Turning 'Instrument outp…

  10. Stuck when starting to build

    2.18.0.3 is permanently stuck when starting build for me (the B in a green circle, white dot continually circling it). Brief history: After installing 2.18.0.3, NCrunch told me there was a serious 64-bit issue which I needed a .NET 4.6 hotfix to sort out. I installed the hotfix (KB3088957), and i…
