The FrameworkReference 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.App' was not recognized

Describe the bug

When adding .NET Core 3.0 to a multi-targeted project I'm getting the error:

error NETSDK1073: The FrameworkReference 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.App' was not recognized

I've followed the porting guide here but have been unable to resolve the issue. It looks like this also also been raised in other issues, but the indications there are that this was an issue during the previews and should now be resolved.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Clone into this repo which is the one I'm trying to add .NET Core 3.0 build support to.
2. Update the DataTables-Editor-Server.csproj file to target .NET Core 3.0:

<TargetFrameworks>netcoreapp2.1;netcoreapp3.0;net45;net46;net47</TargetFrameworks>

and add:

  <ItemGroup Condition="'$(TargetFramework)' == 'netcoreapp3.0'">
    <FrameworkReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore.App" />
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.CSharp">
      <Version>4.6.0</Version>
    </PackageReference>
  </ItemGroup>

3. Run msbuild DataTables.sln - observe errors for .NET Core 3.0 build.

The documentation here notes that Microsoft.AspNetCore.App" is implicit and doesn't need to be included, but the migration guide says it should if the SDK is Microsoft.NET.Sdk which I've been using.

Expected behavior

dll targeting .NET Core 3.0 will be build along with the others.

@nguerrera \ @dsplaisted any guesses what could be wrong?

@DataTables could you attach the binary build logs? You can get them by running msbuild /bl which produces an msbuild.binlog file

Sure thing - attached is the the requested file.

msbuild.binlog.zip

This issue was moved to dotnet/sdk#3762

Thanks @DataTables . I'm going to migrate this issue to the SDK repo, it they would have more context here:
