Cannot find the msbuild executable.
What happens?:
Unable to rebuild my mono libraries and executables.
What should have happened instead?:
Mono should be available and on the default path.
Software version (if not a Wikimedia wiki), browser information, screenshots, other information, etc.:
Cannot find the msbuild executable.
Unable to rebuild my mono libraries and executables.
Where? Please provide context. Thanks!
mono is in /usr/bin/mono, and msbuild should be there too. Except that it is missing again. What is going on?
rmallett@tools-sgebastion-10:~$ which mono
/usr/bin/mono
rmallett@tools-sgebastion-10:~$ which msbuild
rmallett@tools-sgebastion-10:~$ uname

rmallett@tools-sgebastion-10:~/tool-milhistbot/mono$ xbuild AutoStub.csproj
xbuild tool is deprecated and will be removed in future updates, use msbuild instead <<<<
I've never used xbuild before.
No. xbuild does not contain the libraries that I need. Cannot build with xbuild. Need to have mono restored.
My Bots are written with a C# API. Still working so long as mono is present, but changing them will be difficult. Can rtebuild on the Linux machine here, but no assurance that iut is running the same version of mono.
Hmmm

rmallett@tools-sgebastion-07:~$ which msbuild
/usr/bin/msbuild
rmallett@tools-sgebastion-07:~$
So everything is okay, and that is because I am on tools-sgebastion-07. msbuild id available, and the version of mono is good.
Normally I login with:
ssh rmallett@login-stretch.tools.wmflabs.org
So we seem to have more than one machine.
It looks like tools-sgebastion-10 is an obsolete server that needs to be decommissioned. How do you force it to login to a working server?
