Azure DevOps build “rzc generate exited with code 1”

[ferronsw]

Describe the bug

The last container I build on Azure DevOps was with version 2.1.300 of the SDK. After upgrading to .Net Core 2.2 with SDK 2.2.203 I get the error below.

/usr/share/dotnet/sdk/NuGetFallbackFolder/microsoft.aspnetcore.razor.design/2.2.0/build/netstandard2.0/Microsoft.AspNetCore.Razor.Design.CodeGeneration.targets(131,5): error : rzc generate exited with code 1.

The container still builds successful on my local machine. I even went back to version 2.1, but now with the same problem. Any idea what can cause this problem?

I also created a self hosted agent. It has te same problem, but when I build the docker image myself on the same machine (self hosted agent) the build is successful.

Expected behavior

successful build

This is most likely where the error code is being returned from
https://github.com/aspnet/AspNetCore/blob/release/2.2/src/Razor/Razor.Tools/src/GenerateCommand.cs#L52-L56, but it's hard to tell what it's complaining about without build logs.

@pranavkm the build log doesn't show much more if I'm not wrong.

@pranavkm I figured it out but I don't understand why it's causing this problem. I have a view components folder ("~\Views\Shared\Components\ComponentX") that contained multiple views. This caused the problem. After moving one of the views so that only one file was left fixed the problem.

Is it possible too log where it's going when this error occurs? That would save lots of time.

[pranavkm]

@ferronsw you should typically see an error from the compiler. If you have a smallish app that reproduces the problem, I'd be happy to investigate why the error wasn't more prominent.
