XS_USE_ASSEMBLY_NUMBER_FOR is set.
To make the switches work, do the following:
- If you want to use
XS_ASSEMBLY_POSITION_NUMBER_FORMAT_STRING, use a dot (.) slash (/) or hyphen (-) between the values, for example,%ASSEMBLY_PREFIX%.%ASSEMBLY_POS%, or similar. - Leave
XS_USE_ASSEMBLY_NUMBER_FORempty.
