Create Web Site project, open NuGet UI, meet error.

[v-lawu]

NuGet 840

Repro steps:
1.Create empty Web Site project.
2.Right click the project node and select Manager NuGet Packages...

Expected: Can open NuGet UI.
Actually: Meet error.

What version of VS & NuGet are you using?
If you aren't using 3.4.2, please try that one and let us know what happens.

@rrelyea @yishaigalatzer @v-lawu
Does not repro for me with Nuget 3.4.3 build 840 on Dev15.
Nor does it repro on Visual Studio 2015.

[rrelyea]

@zhili1208 investigated. Seems like VS2015 Update 2 w/ NuGet 3.3 or NuGet 3.4.3 -- there are errors. They differ, but the problem is the same. As such, we'll move out of the 3.4.3 milestone and consider the scenario in triage.

@rrelyea I just found 3.3 works for this scenario, the error of 3.3 is from my machine proxy setting, this is an regression, I fixed this and will send a pr soon

[yishaigalatzer]

Can you explain the exact scenario? The fix is about project.json so it's hard for me to tell how it is related to a web site project that typically used web.config

@yishaigalatzer web site project don't use project.json, but nuget search project.ProjectName.json or project.json for every project, nuget try to get project name from msbuild file, but for web site, there is no such file, so the project name will be empty string, then when we search project.ProjectName.json, it will throw Exception from Project Name emptyOrNull check

I followed the repro steps on 840/dev15preview and did not see the problem. To verify this fix I'd want to see the problem first.

[joelverhagen]

Thanks @rohit21agrawal -- I was doing the repro wrong!

Installed.

Fixed the main problem, but added a new one .

Ttry to open NuGet Package manager - works, but not for one of my projects and VS crashed.
Tried the Console way and I am getting this, in any Web Project I am trying:

תודה על העדכון :)

[zhili1208]

tried on my machine, looks like the path is good on my machine, the issue here is the website project root path is bad for nuget, not sure it's a path encoding issue or something else. so @MosheL what's your project path for the web project? and what's the nuget version? Does it work for any nuget version before? Not sure it's an regression or not.

[emgarten]

@MosheL which version of NuGet did this last work with? Are you able to repro this with 3.3.0?

[MosheL]

@zhili1208

1. web project, c:\inetpub\matimim on this error message
2. solution is on MyDocs, so in my machine it's have a hebrew name (E:\המסמכים שלי)
3. Install-Package : An error occurred while writing file 'e:\inetpub\matimim\packages.config': Failed to write packages.config as XML file 'e:\inetpub\matimim\packages.config'. Error: 'Illegal characters in path.'.
   the path is correct, tested via copy/paste to CMD (start e:\....).
4. Visual studio 2015 u1
   on 3.4.x I have the main problem. I was installed file from github - NuGet.0d421874-a3b2-4f67-b53a-ecfce878063b.3.4.4.870.vsix. this file has the new error message..

Tried to install 3.3, installation failed.
I do not know what the specific version I was used before, but it works on these projects and still working on my other Machine on Web projects with similar configuration (solution in MyDocs, website in IIS folders))

[yishaigalatzer]

Can you please go to tools and options -> extensions and updates and tell us what version of nuget is installed on your other machine?

Also can you share the packags.config file?

[MosheL]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<packages>
  <package id="ImageResizer" version="3.2.4" targetFramework="net40" />
</packages>

for working version I can check on morning.

[yishaigalatzer]

Thanks

@MosheL this sounds like a different issue, I've opened #2798 to track it. please add comments there if you find where this was last working. Thanks!
