How to select changeset to build in custom build in visualstudio.com


I configured a solution in visualstudio.com with continuous deployment in an azure website.

I would like to create a custom build that lets me rebuild and deploy an arbitrary changeset. I created the build, but when I go to Queue a new build the Dropdown What do you want to build is disabled and locked with Latest sources.

How can I enable this selection?


Solution

  • I had this same issue using Visual Studio 2013 to queue a build from Visual Studio Team Services.

    There is a Hotfix for VS 2013 listed on this MSDN page that fixed it for me.

    If you are using Visual Studio 2013 with Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2013, you might have problems modifying build process parameters when you queue a build. Get the KB 2898341 hotfix.
