I have an ASP.NET Core project in Azure DevOps repository and it gets built OK using the DevOps build pipeline. However, the release over that builds always fails with this error:
Error: No package found with specified pattern: D:\a\r1\a***.zip
I've already checked out this and this Q/As, but cannot figure out the solution.
Here is my azure.pipelines.yml
file:
pool:
vmImage: 'vs2017-win2016'
variables:
buildConfiguration: 'Release'
steps:
- script: dotnet build ".\src\MyProject.sln" --configuration $(buildConfiguration)
displayName: 'dotnet build $(buildConfiguration)'
- script: dotnet publish ".\src\MyProject.sln" --configuration $(buildConfiguration) --output $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)
displayName: 'dotnet publish $(buildConfiguration)'
- task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1
pathtoPublish: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
artifactName: 'drop'
publishLocation: 'Container'
