visual studio Solution: This is a common issue in visual studio and this error could be a cause when we add/remove the Pre-build event command line(s) and in Post-build event command line(s)… Generally visual studio gives every line as a new command line to the command prompt to execute with "EXEC" command, if we by mistake keep any empty line… visual studio also send this empty line as a new command https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6wwa031b.aspx line and command prompt throws an error as it expects a valid command but what we sent is not a valid command to it… as you can see the below image as i selected the empty line which by mistakenly entered in the project->properties Build Events Tab section… Hope this solution work for you…. Happy Coding🙂 Share https://saimaterial.wordpress.com/2012/11/30/error-the-exec-task-needs-a-command-to-execute-in-visual-studio/ this:ShareTweetEmailShare on TumblrLike this:Like Loading...

only way to send input to it is via the input and inputstring attributes. Also note that since Ant 1.6, any attempt to read input in the forked program will receive an EOF (-1). This is a change from Ant 1.5, where such an attempt would block. If you want to execute an executable using a path relative to the project's basedir, you may need to use vmlauncher="false" on some operating systems - but even this may fail (Solaris 8/9 has been reported as problematic). The resolveexecutable attribute should be more reliable, as would be something like
