Any problem in build process triggers "No valid MSBuild was detected for the selected target:" exception

[janpio]

After code restructuring this Exception is triggered a bit too often.

E.g. if just the build process in MSBuild fails:

CordovaError: No valid MSBuild was detected for the selected target: Error: C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin\msbuild.exe: Command failed with exit code 1

Any luck resolving this issue??

Which one exactly?

This issue refers to a problem in the way the code is structured - returning an exception that is not 100% correct all the times.

I get the above mentioned error whenever i run cordova build windows

I have uninstalled Cordova and installed previous version where linux, windows and windows phone were supported..

I tried command on mac and windows.

Please open a new issue so we can debug this step by step. (Start by including your cordova platform list and cordova -v output, also the complete output and the command you are running)

Essentially the MSBuild detection code does not work well with VS 2017. Duping this into #274

The original issue was another problem - any problem in the build process triggers this error message as it is a general catch for any error.
