How to find reason of failed Build without any error or warning

I have a WebApplication which contains reference to WCF services.

While building using Visual Studio 2010, Build fails without any error or warning. However building the .csproj using MsBuild is successful.

Can’t figure out what should I try in Visual Studio, to resolve / diagnose the issue. Can you please help out?

EDIT:

I find out that the build has been failing,

  1. From text displayed in status Bar.
    enter image description here

  2. From output window :

    ========== Build: 0 succeeded or up-to-date, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========

Build + Intellisense swallowed the error messages.
Selecting Build Only displayed them.
