Error: The "CreateWorkspaceTask" task failed unexpectedly
I am getting an error when trying to run a build in TFS. The specific error is a casting error from object of type 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Tasks.SerializedWorkspace' to type 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Tasks.SerializedWorkspace'.
The builds used to work a while back and I don't know of any changes that have occured on either the development machine, build server or TFS server. Any ideas?
The contents of the log are such:
