I'm hoping someone can help me out. Thanks!
I'm trying to deploy my dotnet core 2.0 API
When I try and build the project with bitbucket pipelines I get multiple errors finding references. It does restore the project successfully.
However the project builds successfully on my laptop.
folder structure:
/API
/Controllers
/Migrations
/Models
/Services
API.csproj
Program.cs
Startup.cs
bitbucket-pipelines.yml
pipelines:
default:
- step:
image: microsoft/dotnet
name: Check if it builds
script:
- cd API
- dotnet build
example error:
Services/MyService.cs(18,29): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'IRepository<>' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) [/opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build/API/API.csproj]
Note I have the latest version of dotnet, same as I'm using in bitbucket pipelines. I have checked via running dotnet --info
Finally i've figured out what was the cause of this issue. I feel really silly for not figuring this out sooner.
My git repository was somehow setup with ignorecase = true.
I have switched it to false (which will prevent this issue in the future).
This means that I can have two of the same files or folders.
I had renamed a folder to a different case.
My repo had
API/
API.csproj
and
api/
api.csproj
My Mac couldn't allow for both so I only saw one folder and one project on my local machine.
To fix this, I had to git rm -r --cached api
This deleted the duplicate folder
I had the project file as a duplicate as well so used git rm -f api.csproj to remove the file from the repository.
Then git pull to bring those changes into my local master branch.

On a Windows machine there is a GitLab-Runner run from a domain user with admin rights. When I log as this user and call dotnet build -c release to build an ASP.NET Core app, the dll has all the information from the AssemblyInfo.cs file. When I do the same as part of a CI job, the produced dll is missing all this information (for example the version number).
The AssemblyInfo.cs file is not part of the repository, instead, it is produced by a prebuild event (using gitWCRev.exe tool). However after running some tests I can see that the AssemblyInfo.cs is actually generated when the job is run by the runner.
Any help as to why the file is ignored and how to overcome this issue would be appreciated.
At first I thought that this might be related to Pre-build task of Visual Studio project fails in GitLab Runner issue, but I don't get any build errors.
On the same machine, I build a .Net Framework app which has the same AssemblyInfo setup, but is compiled using msbuild /property:Configuration=Release by the runner and the produced dll file has all the expected information.
It turns out the problem was partially related to the AssemblyInfo.cs file not being part of the repository.
SDK-style csproj normally don't list the files in the project, but figure them out based on the folder contents. When dotnet build was run, AssemblyInfo.cs wasn't present in the project directory (GitLab-Runner usually clears out files not present in the repository before starting a job/pipeline), so build tools had no idea they needed to load it. It made no difference that the file was being created by the build tools.
The solution proved to be creating an empty AssemblyInfo.cs file before running dotnet build. This way build tools knew they needed to compile it. Actual compilation still happened after prebuild events, so all the needed information was there.
I created the empty AssemblyInfo.cs file using PowerShell:
New-Item -Path "Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs" -ItemType File
Also, checking the build logs helped me finally figure it out. To get the build logs I've called build tools like this:
dotnet build -c release /flp:v=diag
The .Net Framework app didn't have this problem because it wasn't an SDK-style project. All the files needed for compilation were listed in the project file and build tools knew to load them, even if they were created during the prebuild event.
We have Xamarin.Forms solution with iOS and UWP projects. We use Azure pipelines to build the iOS project. Until yesterday everything was working fine.
Now the build fails at the NuGet Restore step with the error:
##[error]The nuget command failed with exit code(1) and error(/Users/runner/work/1/s/"MyProjectName.UWP".csproj : error MSB4057: The target "_IsProjectRestoreSupported" does not exist in the project.
We can see that the problem occurs when trying to restore NuGet packages for the UWP project on the Mac OS build host.
Image: macOS-11
Workaround will be to exclude it from the solution, but we are using it for testing purposes and this is not a good option for us.
We had the same problem yesterday for our iOS (macos-11) and Android (macos-10.15) Pipelines.
The issue 21180 for mono seems to be the root cause, which is also referenced in a pull request to update the mono version for MacOs virtual environments. Regarding to this workflow test we gave msbuild a chance, and it works.
Solution:
Instead of NuGet restore we use directly MSBuild.
- task: MSBuild#1
inputs:
solution: 'App.sln'
configuration: 'Release'
msbuildArguments: /t:restore
Looking at the log file, MSBuild ignores the UWP project. That is the behavior that NuGet had with the older mono version 6.12.0.125. Ignoring the UWP-Project is no problem, because it can only be build on windows environments.
Project "/Users/runner/work/1/s/App.sln" on node 1 (Restore target(s)).
ValidateSolutionConfiguration:
Building solution configuration "Release|Any CPU".
/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/6.12.0/lib/mono/msbuild/Current/bin/NuGet.targets(315,5): warning : Skipping restore for project '/Users/runner/work/1/s/App/App.UWP/App.UWP.csproj'. The project file may be invalid or missing targets required for restore. [/Users/runner/work/1/s/App.sln]
Some additional information:
The NuGet restore task uses msbuild to find all referenced packages. If that fails, it will use the packages.config file as fallback, the pipeline step will not fail.
Instead we got an error in the build steps for Android & iOS:
error NETSDK1004: Assets file
'/Users/runner/work/1/s/../obj/project.assets.json' not found. Run a
NuGet package restore to generate this file.
Updated Answer
This can be resolved using MSBuild task instead, as the collogues mentioned below.
However, in my case this still lead to the same error. After investigating the pipeline. The root cause has been identified:
Both in MSBuild#1 and XamariniOS#2 tasks
you should target the specific iOS Project and not the solution file, like so:
"
- task: MSBuild#1
inputs:
solution: 'PathToIosProject/myproject.iOS.csproj'
configuration: '$(BuildConfiguration)'
msbuildArguments: /t:restore
" - task: XamariniOS#2
inputs:
solutionFile: PathToIosProject/myproject.iOS.csproj'
configuration: '$(BuildConfiguration)'
packageApp: true
signingIdentity: $(APPLE_CERTIFICATE_SIGNING_IDENTITY)
Old Answer
We have managed to resolve the issue. The root cause of it seems to be an update to the mono framework in the MacOS pipeline build agent.
In order to fix it, we need a script for downloading and installing an older version of the mono framework as a first step of the build pipeline like so:
link to the pipeline tasks photo
This is the code of the bash scrip used in the task:
#!/bin/bash
set -ex
MONO_MACOS_PKG_DOWNLOAD_URL='https://download.mono-project.com/archive/6.12.0/macos-10-universal/MonoFramework-MDK-6.12.0.100.macos10.xamarin.universal.pkg'
mkdir -p /tmp/mono-install
cd /tmp/mono-install
mono --version
wget -q -O ./mono-installer.pkg "$MONO_MACOS_PKG_DOWNLOAD_URL"
sudo installer -pkg ./mono-installer.pkg -target /
mono --version
ls -alh /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current
Many people asking about problem with
Service 'web' failed to build: COPY failed: stat /var/lib/docker/tmp/docker-builder
This problem exist, when you trying to build Docker image from autogenerated Dockerfile for Linux in Visual Studio. I resolved that. Because many questions are not connected with ASP.NET directly i will help you, and tell what to do in this case in answer.
I tried to change:
COPY ["Divorcer/Divorcer.csproj", "Divorcer/"] to:
COPY ["/Divorcer/Divorcer.csproj", "Divorcer/"],
COPY ["./Divorcer/Divorcer.csproj", "Divorcer/"],
even to
COPY ["~/.Divorcer/Divorcer.csproj", "Divorcer/"]
Problem still exist.
So, as i told you Randomly generated path is like above.
Solution is in Solution. When you creating new project named "Divorcer" VStudio making
Solution
-- Project
Directories. This problem was resolved with simply bash commands (if you using screen OS you can do it with your mouse).
cd /Path/To/Solution/Project
mv Dockerfile ../
Its simply coping Dockerfile to Solution directory from Project directory. Now you can use docker build -t "someproject" . and it working.
Make sure that you are in Solution directory! Have fun.
I have an ASP.NET core application that I've been auto-deploying to an azure app service on commit to a git repo. It worked fine as a project.json type project.
I've converted my project.json to myproject.fsproj and it builds and runs locally. On comitting the .fsproj to git, the deployment was triggered, but it failed with the activity log containing one line: 'D:\home\site\repository\myproject.fsproj' is not a deployable project.
I guess it's an issue with the default kudu deployment script? Does anyone know how to sort this out, or do I need to submit an issue/RFC to the kudu guys?
UPDATE
I generated the original .fsproj using:
dotnet new mvc --language f# --framework netcoreapp1.0
I've since made changes to it, so I will try to do a minimal case later tonight.
Turns out that the default deployment in azure wouldn't deal with this.
Following the answer on Kudu Deployment Script for ASP.NET Core 1.0, I generated a custom deployment script using:
npm install -g kuduscript
kuduscript -y --aspNetCore myproject.fsproj
Added the resulting deploy.cmd along with a .deployment:
[config]
command = deploy.cmd
A deployment triggered by a push to git works as expected now.
I have this asp.net (4.6.2) web application which compiles and runs fine on my local machine.
The project is in a Git repo in VSTS.
I want this site deployed to Azure web sites. So I make a Webapp and set the deployment option to my VSTS Git repo.
This will automatically trigger a deployment... which fails.. with this error:
All packages listed in packages.config are already installed.

An error has occurred during web site deployment.
It looks to me like it's compiling my .d.ts files. Don't know why..VS2015 does not do that.
I tried to exclude this file in a tsconfig but that does not work.
How can I make this build succeed?
So the problem is that the Azure build machine is not equipped with typescript 2.0 (yet) and knockout.d.ts uses a 2.0 syntax for something. See the comments below the question.
GitHub issue here
You need to compile type script files before deploying to azure. In deploy.cmd file on azure you can add this code to Compile TypeScript right after the npm packages are installed.
echo Transpiling TypeScript in %DEPLOYMENT_TARGET%...call :ExecuteCmd node %DEPLOYMENT_TARGET%\node_modules\typescript\bin\tsc -p "%DEPLOYMENT_TARGET%"
You can find the deploy.cmd file on KUDU in site->deployments->tools section.
