TFS 2010 Build Definition: MSBuild Arguments seems to be ignored

I am trying to create a package after a build in TFS 2010.

When I launch the following command on my computer:

 MSBuild.exe Fenicorp.Front.Web.FunnyApplication.sln 
 /p:DeployOnBuild=true;DeployTarget=Package

the solution is compiled and there is a package inside the obj folder.

However, when I specify 

 /p:DeployOnBuild=true;DeployTarget=Package

as MSBuild Arguments in a Build Definition and queue a new build, there is no package in my drop folder. Moreover the build status is Successfull, as if everything is fine.

Eventually I managed to make it work. I needed to install Visual Studio 2010 on the build server in order to have MSBuild to work with these arguments.
