Unable to run using 0.9.3-beta (DNX 5.0)

I tried to use the beta version of BenchmarkDotNet using DNX but it doesn't work even on the most basic example. Here is my sample code: ConsoleApp.zip

When I run it I have the following exception:
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The system cannot find the file specified
at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartCore(ProcessStartInfo startInfo)

at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Execute()

I tried to compile BenchmarkDotNet in debug to see what was the problem but then I get a different exception which seems to be related to a missing assembly: System.Runtime.InteropServices.PInvoke.

DNX is pretty new to me so maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Hi @rold2007 Do you have dotnet cli toolchain installed?

[AndreyAkinshin]

@adamsitnik, can we detect a situation when user doesn't have installed dotnet cli and print warning?

[adamsitnik]

@AndreyAkinshin sure, I will implement this

Thanks for your help, now it works !
If anyone has the same problem, just follow the instruction here.

@rold2007 You welcome! I am very happy that you use it, you are proably one of the first people that use dnxcore50 support! Please let me know if you have any troubles.
