Hello @Shekhar Gupta,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Did you navigate to the directory that mentioned in the error message => C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Enterprise\VC\Auxiliary\build and confirm that the vcvars64.bat file does exist?

If it doesn’t exist, please check if you have installed corresponding workload and components. For example, the vcvars64.bar file was there after I installed the "Desktop development with C++" workload from VS Installer > Modify > Workloads.

More specifically, you can directly install "MSVC v142 – VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools (Latest)" component from VS Installer > Modify > Individual components.

Please feel free to let us know the results.

Best Regards,

Tianyu

Thanks @Shekhar Gupta for sharing more details.

I can see that in the second screenshot, the path includes quotes(" "). Did these quotes appear automatically in the error message or maybe the path was manually set in somewhere and include the quotes? As, normally, the quotes are not needed for sub-directories, though there are spaces.

As the error message mentioned that the vcvars64.bat file cannot be found, is it possible for you to download/install this file(you need to install VS 2019 with "MSVC v142 – VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools (Latest)" component) into the mentioned directory and check if it works?

Anyway, I saw that you mentioned => "As previously same thing is passing for windows build". Is there anything changed like configurations, files, code…?

BTW, as Azure DevOps is currently not supported in the Microsoft Q&A forums, I would suggest you also submit a new ticket on our Developer Community - Azure DevOps for better help.

Regards,

Tianyu

It seems that it's true that the quotes interfere the build process.

I share the solution that you shared in above Developer Community ticket here, in case others get the same issue.

using below line without double quotes in between resolve the things “C:\Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Enterprise\VC\Auxiliary\build\vcvars64.bat”
