However, the web deploy project does not build in the team build.
In the TFS2010 build log does it explicity say the project was excluded from being built?
You should check your solution settings first to make sure the project is apart of the solution then just the configuration manager to ensure the project is being targetting for build.

Had a look ... the project wasn't being targetted for build. Turns out that when we migrated the 2005 solution and projects to 2010 we hadn't installed the 2010 Web Deployment Projects RTW on the development machine, so it removed the web deploy project
from the target builds in the solution. Even though we subsequently carried out the install and migration for the web deploy we didn't notice that the solution still wasn't targetting it.

VS 2005 web deployment projects in TF build 2010
May 05, 2011 08:55 AM|LINK
We have a VS 2005 web deployment project that builds fine in TF 2005 producing a fully precompiled web site.
We have migrated the project to VS 2010 and created a TF 2010 build based on the upgrade template to carry out our existing 2005 build script.
We have downloaded and installed the 2010 Web Deployment Projects RTW (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=89f2c4f5-5d3a-49b6-bcad-f776c6edfa63&displaylang=en) on the build server.
However, the web deploy project does not build in the team build.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Jimmy Q,

Thanks for the nudge :)
