Error "Showing a modal dialog box" when running from TFS

Hi

Using Syncfusion version 8.1. Project includes a licx license file: "Syncfusion.Core.LicenseComponent, Syncfusion.Core". Using TFS for build.

When moved build to new build machine (same OS version 2008 and also 2016) build breaks with message "Showing a modal dialog box or form when the application is not running in UserInteractive mode is not a valid operation".

The build DOES work when running manually on same machine, from same folder TFS uses and with same logon user. Running the LC.exe command as service with said user also succeeds. Running MSBuild (not the TFS flavour) as service also succeeds. Of course build also succeeds on older build machine.

What can further be cheched?

Can this be an issue with the "tmp_proj" WPF creates (which writes to user temp folder)?

Thanks

.NET framework 4.5.2

TFS 2017

VS 2013

Hi Omri,


You need to install Syncfusion setup v8.1 on your new build machine.

Also, ensure below registry keys present in your machine after installing the setup, 


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Syncfusion\Essential Suite\InstalledVersions 


Ensure your unlock key is registered in below registry key, 


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Syncfusion\Essential Suite\InstalledVersions\Keys 


Could you please follow the steps provided in the documentation link below to resolve the licensing issue in version v8.1?
