Custom Build Activity Not Running

I have a custom build activity, but it's not executing. I've put it in try-catch block which catches Sysytem.Exception in my build template, and first line of overriden execute method is throwing Sysytem.Exception. On the log I see only line with the name of my custom activity! Any guesses?

     protected override void Execute(CodeActivityContext context)
     {
        throw new System.Exception("This is hello messasge");
        ...
     }
Solution

  • I found out! I have specified path to assembly with my custom activities in the properties of build controller, but a had assembly with the same name in GAC. So, I suppose, TFS was using not my assemly, but assembly from GAC.
