I am using NAnt to build an asp.net mvc 3 project that contains EXT JS. After the code successfully compiles, msbuild attempts to copy the files into the following sub folder "_PublishedWebsites". Unfortunately the build fails and I get the following error:

[msbuild] C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.0\WebApplications\Microsoft.WebApplication.targets(177,5): 
error MSB3021: Unable to copy file "Scripts\Foobar\extjs\resources\css\ext-all-gray.css" to "build\_PublishedWebsites\Foobar.WebUI\Scripts\Foobar\extjs\resources\css\ext-all-gray.css".
Could not find a part of the path 'Scripts\Foobar\extjs\resources\css\ext-all-gray.css'. [C:\Work\Projects\Foobar\Src\Foobar.WebUI\Foobar.WebUI.csproj]

The files are in the location but the error seems to occur when files have "-" in the name. To confirm this I excluded the files that were causing the build to fail and what do you know, the build works.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

This error message is about output location not input files, I guess. IMO your part of the output path "Scripts\Foobar\extjs\resources\css\" does not exist. Let's say if "css" folder is missing. Do you have some other .css files without '-' chars in resources\css folder? Are they deployed correctly?
