System.InvalidOperationException: The project service does not contain the specified project

Problem:

When configuring my Build Service on TFS 2015 I received the following error message when building my SharePoint WSP with the build service.

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\SharePointTools\Microsoft.VisualStudio.SharePoint.targets (387, 5)
The "ValidatePackage" task failed unexpectedly.
System.InvalidOperationException: The project service does not contain the specified project: c7bc030b-17d9-42eb-8dd4-a7c0d3258203.

I have tested a few fixes mentioned on the web as installing Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012* or Open the *.csproj in a text editor and look for the <ProjectTypeGuids> entry and make sure the guids are listed there*.

Nothing worked for me until I figured out a really stupid configuration setting that is quite obvious but I have overlooked.

Resolution:

Our SharePoint 2013 solution was created with Visual Studio 2013 and within the vNext Visual Studio-Build I had configured the Visual Studio-Version 2012. I just needed to set the correct version and it worked like a charm.

Select different Visual Studio Version
Select Visual Studio 2013 as Visual Studio-Version
