TFS无法恢复NuGet包

Question

I've got TFS doing some continuous integration builds. Today, it broke for one solution. It seems it can't find AutoMapper. All the other packages can be found just fine.

A couple relevant points:

• None of the packages are in source control, we're letting TFS restore them.
• We have an internal NuGet feed, but it doesn't seem to be a problem in other solutions, and in this solution we are still getting Entity Framework to restore - just not AutoMapper.
• I tried removing and re-adding the NuGet Packages. No luck.
• If I use Remote Desktop to connect to the build server and open the project in Visual Studio there, it restores the packages and builds fine.
• I can build manually by executing D:\\"Program Files"\\"Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0"\\Tools\\Nuget.exe restore followed by msbuild MySolutoin.sln
• Our TFS server is installed on our D:\\ drive.

This is from the TFS Logs:

Answer 1

I've seen this too. It seems to be triggered as soon as NuGet package restore switches to the internal feed. Once it does this is doesn't switch back to the official nuget.org feed and continues to look for the packages on the internal feed.

Ensure both package sources are added to your NuGet.config file. Also ensure both sources are 'active'.

<configuration>
    <packageSources>
        <add key="nuget.org"
             value="https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/" />
        <add key="example.com"
             value="http://example.com/feed/nuget/" />
    </packageSources>
    <activePackageSource>
        <add key="All"
             value="(Aggregate source)" />
    </activePackageSource>
</configuration>

See NuGet configuration file documentation.

Answer 2

Matt's answer put me on the right track but we don't use an internal feed so I had to do some more digging. This answer works, at least, for a project created in Visual Studio 2015 and built by TFS 2015 .

In Visual Studio, open the NuGet package manager settings (Tools menu > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Settings). Choose "Package Sources" from the options list on the left.

Create the nuget.config file at the root of the solution. This should be the same folder location as your ".sln" solution file. Copy the following into the config file:

<configuration>
    <packageSources>

    </packageSources>
    <activePackageSource>
        <add key="All"
             value="(Aggregate source)" />
    </activePackageSource>
</configuration>

Within the <packageSources> tag, create an <add key="" value="" /> entry for each source listed in the "Package Sources" options window. The key is the name of the source as shown above the URL, and the value is the URL itself. Include those listed in both "Available package sources" and "Machine-wide package sources". I did not create an entry for the local filesystem as it wasn't used in this solution. Based on the screenshot above, the complete config file now contains the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <packageSources>
        <add key="nuget.org"
             value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" />
        <add key="Microsoft and .NET"
             value="https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/curated-feeds/microsoftdotnet/" />
    </packageSources>
    <activePackageSource>
        <add key="All"
             value="(Aggregate source)" />
    </activePackageSource>
</configuration>

After committing the nuget.config file to source control, TFS was able to download all the necessary NuGet packages and successfully build the solution.

Answer 3

In addition to Matt's answer, I'd like to highlight the following well-hidden stuff from the NuGet documentation:

NuGet config files are treated in the following priority order (closest to the folder nuget.exe runs from wins), for example assuming the solution directory is c:\\a\\b\\c :

• c:\\a\\b\\c\\.nuget\\nuget.config - This file is only used for solution level packages, and is not supported in nuget 3.0 - 3.4
• c:\\a\\b\\c\\nuget.config
• c:\\a\\b\\nuget.config
• c:\\a\\nuget.config
• c:\\nuget.config
• User specific config file, %AppData%\\NuGet\\nuget.config .
• Or the user specified file thru option -ConfigFile .

This could explain some weird behaviour in specific scenario's where a restore does or does not pick up a configured feed, depending on whether youre restoring with nuget 2.x or 3.x

Edit: and I found yet another reason why packages might not be detected :

I have package "A" with version 1.1.1.0 .

Prior 3.4 this command works well:

nuget install A -version 1.1.1.0

With NuGet 3.4 RC I get:

An error occurred while retrieving package metadata for 'A.1.1.1' from source 'N'. An error occurred while retrieving package metadata for 'A.1.1.1' from source 'N'. Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.

...

The client treats 1.1, 1.1.0, 1.01.0 and 1.1.0.0 as the same version using SemVer rules. The reason non-normalized versions were special cased in the past is because for v2 http calls the client would first send the version string exactly as the user specified it
