Here is my code:

<exec program="${msdeploy.exe}"
  commandline="-verb:sync 
               -source:dirPath=${path::get-full-path(Web.UI.dir)} 
               -dest:package='c:\foo.zip'
               -verbose" />

I'm getting this error:

[exec] Error: Package file 'c:\foo.zip'
[exec] ' does not have a .zip file name extension.
[exec] Error count: 1.
