CUDA error MSB3191

I tried to do the two new steps manually in my older project (CUDA Link Error (Lib to Dll)) to get my CUDA kernel running (just added the structure to the Lib part of the project). The steps are:

1: Project's 'Build Customization' to use CUDA 7.0(.targets, .props)

2: TestKernel.cu I've changed it's type to CUDA C/C++ in the Class Property Page.

Now I'm getting the following error message from CUDA 7.0.targets:

Error 1 error MSB3191: Unable to create directory "SourceLib.dir\Debug\C:\Users\Matthieu\Desktop\Project\src\SourceLib\Helpers\". The given path's format is not supported. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V120\BuildCustomizations\CUDA 7.0.targets 412 9 SourceLib

I've searched for a solution but I can't find any. Everyone is talking about this part "SourceLib.dir\Debug\C:\Users.......", which obviously looks wrong, but I can't find the setting in Visual Studio or CMake. Where can I adjust this?

It's similar to this question (CUDA 6.5: error MSB3191 Unable to create directory and LNK2001 Unresolved External symbol), but I can't fix it by copying the .cu file.

If I don't set the .targets file it won't build. I'll get the older error. Any help? And alternative for getting the setup running using Cmake is also welcome :) Thx!

The issue was that the CMake file was filling "SourceLib.dir\Debug" into the Intermediate Directory property (Project Properties -> General). Deleting it resolved the issue with the CUDA 7.0 target
