Hi,

Thanks for getting in touch! I am not really sure what is going on in those logs except it looks like NuGet pack is not being called correctly.
We have some Videos on how to Integrate TeamCity and Octopus that should help you figure out where this went wrong, as it is step by step.
http://octopusdeploy.wistia.com/projects/gguvhmqn6b The videos for TC are down the bottom.

Hope that helps!

Vanessa,
thank you for your help. i was able to generate nuget package finally in my teamcity project. strange thing is if i add this property true in my webproject and uncheck the checkbox in teamcity for Run OctoPack , then only it is generating the nuget package. if i remove the
true from project and check the checkbox and then its not generating .
