I am running .NET Core 1.1.0 on Ubuntu 14.04, with the goal of hosting my Web APIs in Docker on Ubuntu. I want to build my packages on Ubuntu, but some of the NuGet references are hosted on an internal NuGet repository (Artifactory). This works fine in VS2015 on Windows after I add the package source, but when I run:
dotnet restore
on Ubuntu, the packages hosted on the public NuGet repo download fine, but those on Artifactory fail:
error: Unable to resolve 'Mercury.BaseModel (>= 1.1.0)' for '.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.1'.
I found a NuGet config file at \home\<user>\.nuget\NuGet\NuGet.Config
and added the Artifactory repository as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
<add key="Artifactory-DEV" value="https://theluggage-agct.gray.net/artifactory/api/nuget/nuget-institutional-development-local" protocolVersion="3"/>
</packageSources>
</configuration>
but I am still getting the same error.
NuGet itself does not work after installing the .NET Core SDK, I am using dotnet restore
as mentioned - is there similar config I must edit for the dotnet CLI (which must be using NuGet?) or is there something else I need to do?
Thanks!
After all that I quickly identified 2 problems I had missed:
- I had used
sudo -i
to run as root attempting to resolve the problem, as as a result the NuGet config I setup in my \home folder was not being picked up.
Moving back to my own logon, I then got an error:
error: Unable to load the service index for source https://theluggage-agct.gray.net/artifactory/api/nuget/nuget-institutional-development-local.
error: The content at 'https://theluggage-agct.gray.net/artifactory/api/nuget/nuget-institutional-development-local' is not a valid JSON object.
error: Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: <. Path '', line 0, position 0.
Turns out that our Artifactory NuGet repo returns XML which is NuGet v2 compliant. I changed the config file to set the repo as v2 and it is now working. So, from above, edit the file at
\home\<user>\.nuget\NuGet\NuGet.Config
adding your new repo URL, and get the version setting right:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
<add key="Artifactory-DEV" value="https://theluggage-agct.gray.net/artifactory/api/nuget/nuget-institutional-development-local" protocolVersion="2"/>
</packageSources>
</configuration>
Dotnet CLI restore can take -s as source feed url, so if you have Artifactory with Remote repository to nuget.org.
dotnet restore -s https://artifactory.example.com/api/nuget/nuget.org
