"Failed to initialize source control provider" error

Post by mattbnh »

But I am not using source control with Flare!

I amusing Flare 6 to build a merged chm set with about 12 slave chms included in the master TOC.
each linked project gives the following error during the build.

Collecting linked (merged) help system info...
Compiling linked projects...
D:\CCURE_9000_2_01\AppServer-Guide-Help-and-PDF\AppServer-Guide-Help-and-PDF.flprj: Failed to initialize source control provider: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

None of the projects are linked to Source control. None of the targets have the 'get latest version' option checked.

I have TFS 2010 on the system (Win 7) but we only use it to put finished output into the engineering build system.
Our actual docs source control is external - we archive finished work to a legacy Clearcase.

The build ends up fine with no errors on the Error tab, and everything works.
So there is no crisis.
But the error is peculiar, and I would like to know what causes it.
