I have a project I am trying to use SlowCheetah for. I have created my config file (Test.web.config) and all the transformations I want to use (Debug_Mock.config, Debug_SQL.config, Release) in my Build configuration I have a post-build event is supposed to copy the transformed file into another directory but the file cannot be found
(error xcopy exited with code 4)
SlowCheetah doesn't seem to be transforming the file and placing it in the output directory (bin folder) like I would expect. Does anyone have any ideas as to why it is not happening, maybe a setting somewhere?
FYI: This process works on another machine, with the same project. As far as I can tell the same set up as well. But I may not be looking in the correct place.
Enable build verbosity (Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions
-> Build and Run
) and see the difference between the version that is working and the one that is not.
To my knowledge, slow-Cheetah supports config transforms for the app.config
files but
not web.configs
on debug at present. It should put a transformed web.config
file in the bin
folder of your project but your project still reads from the config file
in the root folder. Please have a look at pre/post build events at

You can request for web config transform support on debug at

Try re-installing Slow-Cheetah.
