ReportGenerator task does not work on the project for .NET Framework .

[norainu98]

Describe the bug

'....\tools\net47\ReportGenerator.MSBuild.dll' is set as 'ReportGeneratorAssembly' in a build\netstandard2.0\ReportGenerator.props.
However, above file does not exist in tools\net47 folder of the nupkg of v5.0.4.
As result, when target is .NET Framework. ReportGenerator command in the msbuild file does not wok.

To Reproduce

1. Set a reference of ReportGenerator v5.0.4 into the msbuild project file with TargetFrameworks is net47 or net48.
2. Set 'ReportGenerator' as msbuild task.
3. Run msbuild and even if 'ReportGenerator' is called but it's not work because ReportGenerator.MSBuild.dll for .NET Framework does not exist.

You are right, this file is missing in the packages.
I guess there was a temporal problem with the GitHub action building the project.
The files got missing in v5 and now seem to be back again (without any changes in the build pipeline).

I plan to publish v5.1 within the next days, which will fix the problem.

[danielpalme]

I just released v5.1. Does this work for you?

[norainu98]

Sorry, later.

ReportGenerator.MSBuild.dll exists in the %USERPROFILE%.nuget\packages\reportgenerator\5.1.1\tools\net47 folder.
However, version:4.8.13 works but version:5.1.1 does not work yet.

when call ReportGenerator Task of version:5.1.1, below error occurs.

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60' or one of its dependencies. 
at Palmmedia.ReportGenerator.Core.Generator.GetConfiguration()
   at Palmmedia.ReportGenerator.Core.Generator.GenerateReport(IReportConfiguration reportConfiguration) in /_/src/ReportGenerator.Core/Generator.cs:line 44

ReportGenerator Task of version:4.8.13 works fine.
In this time, a difference between ver4.x and ver5.x on my project is just a only version string of the package reference.

It took some time, but I figured it out.
New version 5.1.2 should finally work again.

[norainu98]

I confirmed to work 5.1.2 on my environment.
It worked by both net48 and net6.
Thanks!
