"error MSB3552: Resource file "**/*.resx" cannot be found" only in particular environments

I have a build that works on my computer but is failing in a continuous integration environment (AppVeyor) with this error:

Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(2867,5): error MSB3552: Resource file “**/*.resx” cannot be found.

On my computer, the build output contains:

React.Core.csproj" (target "ResGen" depends on it):
Task "GenerateResource" skipped, due to false condition; ('%(EmbeddedResource.Type)' == 'Resx' and '%(EmbeddedResource.GenerateResource)' != 'false' and '$(GenerateResourceMSBuildRuntime)' != 'CLR2') was evaluated as ('Non-Resx' == 'Resx' and '' != 'false' and 'CLR4' != 'CLR2').
Task "GenerateResource" skipped, due to false condition; ('%(EmbeddedResource.Type)' == 'Resx' and '%(EmbeddedResource.GenerateResource)' != 'false' and '$(GenerateResourceMSBuildRuntime)' == 'CLR2') was evaluated as ('Non-Resx' == 'Resx' and '' != 'false' and 'CLR4' == 'CLR2').
Done building target "CoreResGen" in project "React.Core.csproj".

However, on the build server, it says:

React.Core.csproj" (target "ResGen" depends on it):
Using "GenerateResource" task from assembly "Microsoft.Build.Tasks.Core, Version=15.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a".
Task "GenerateResource"
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\15.0\Bin\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(2867,5): error MSB3552: Resource file "**/*.resx" cannot be found. [C:\projects\react-net\src\React.Core\React.Core.csproj]
  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.6.1 Tools\resgen.exe" ........

It looks like EmbeddedResource.Type is incorrectly set to Resx rather than Non-Resx, but I have no idea where that comes from 😦

I also noticed a few other messages that appear on the build server that do not appear on my local build:

  Culture of "" was assigned to file "**/*.resx".
Done executing task "AssignCulture".
Task "AssignCulture"

  Resource file '**/*.resx' doesn't depend on any other file.
  Resource file '**/*.resx' gets manifest resource name 'React.Core.__.*'.
Done executing task "CreateCSharpManifestResourceName".
Task "CreateCSharpManifestResourceName"

 Creating a separate AppDomain because of error parsing "**/*.resx". Illegal characters in path

Seems like there’s some strange globbing issue going on? I’m not sure.

Seems like something specific to the AppVeyor build.
