I'm trying to apply a fix to allow NCover v1.5.5 to run on Windows Server 2008 X64 via my TeamCity Continuous Integration server as outlined on this blog:
http://abdullin.com/journal/2008/6/6/how-to-run-free-ncover-on-a-64-bit-machine.html
Here is my log:

So I'm trying to apply the CorFlags trick to make it work, but I am getting an error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v2.0\Bin>CorFlags.exe D:\TeamCity\build Agent\work\a65ff8d0771db303\tools\NCover\NCover.exe /32BIT+
Microsoft (R) .NET Framework CorFlags Conversion Tool. Version 2.0.50727.42 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
corflags : error CF008 : The specified file does not have a valid managed header
Any ideas?? Help!
I actually solved this by upgrading to a newer version of NUnit, and changing my NCover task to point to the X86 version:
<exec program="tools\ncover\NCover.Console.exe" workingdir="${build.dir}\Debug\UnitTests">
<arg value="//w "."" />
<arg value="//x "..\..\test-reports\Coverage.xml"" />
<arg value=""..\..\..\lib\NUnit-2.4.8-net-2.0\bin\nunit-console-x86.exe"" />
<arg value=""UnitTests.dll" "/xml:..\..\test-reports\UnitTests.xml" "/nologo"" />
</exec>
