Trying to follow updated MVC tutorial for MVC 6 using VS2015

Question

In the "adding a model" section of the tutorial, the instructions are:

Run the following commands in the command prompt:

dnu restore
dnvm use 1.0.0-rc1-final -p
dnx ef migrations add Initial
dnx ef database update

When executing dnvm use 1.0.0-rc1-final -p I get an error of type Invoke-Command : Cannot find dnx-clr-win-x86.1.0.0-rc1-final . So I find two possible solutions in this post:

Solution #1:

SET DNX_FEED=https://www.myget.org/F/aspnetrelease/
dnvm upgrade

Solution #2:

If you want to use beta8 bits then you have to run "dnvm upgrade -u" (-u means unstable; aka dev feed)

...but both solutions get my console stuck in this state (for more than an hour):

Downloading dnx-clr-win-x86.1.0.0-rc2-16308 from https://www.myget.org/F/aspnetvnext/api/v2

 Installing runtime
    Unpacking runtime

Any way to circumvent these problems?

Answer 1

The name of the dnx changed in the latest version of ASP.NET 5. It is now called 1.0.0-rc1-update1 .

You can find out the version name inside global.json file.
