MSTest can not publish results. Says that platform and flavour are not right and they are

Question

we are trying to execute unit tests with MSTest from command line and publishing the results at the TFS server. The problem is that MSTest is always returning:

Publishing results of test run buildmachine@XXX-XXXXXXX 2010-12-16 11:39:13_Release_Any CPU to http://xxxx:8080/Build/v1.0/PublishTestResultsBuildService2.asmx... ......................................................................................... Build 'xxx>xxx>x>x>x>xxxx>xxxx>x.x.x.xxx' does not include the specified configuration ('Release/Any CPU').

The problem is that the specified configuration should exist. We've build with the next MSBuild settings:

<ConfigurationToBuild Include="Release|Any CPU">
  <FlavorToBuild>Release</FlavorToBuild>
  <PlatformToBuild>Any CPU</PlatformToBuild>
</ConfigurationToBuild>

Any idea? I'm starting to be fed up with this.

The problem was that the build didn't succeeded and then MSTest couldn't publish the results. The error message could be better ...
