Can't publish asp.net 5 application after update to beta8 - the dependency ... could not be resolved

Question

I have updated a webApi asp.net5 application to beta8 and can't publish to the file system any more.

The build seems to work, i can debug and run the app, but if i try to publish i get errors like this...

Here is the Project.json file:

LibInternal.Database is a .NET Framework 4.5 Project.

Here is packages.config from LibInternal.Database:

<packages>
  <package id="AntiXSS" version="4.2.1" targetFramework="net45" />
  <package id="Devshed.Csv" version="1.3.8" targetFramework="net45" />
  <package id="Devshed.Shared" version="1.3.7" targetFramework="net45" />
  <package id="DotNetZip" version="1.9.2" targetFramework="net45" />
  <package id="Iesi.Collections" version="3.2.0.4000" targetFramework="net45" />
  <package id="MongoDB.Bson" version="2.0.0" targetFramework="net45" />
  <package id="MongoDB.Driver" version="2.0.0" targetFramework="net45" />
  <package id="MongoDB.Driver.Core" version="2.0.0" targetFramework="net45" />

Somebody any ideas?

Answer 1

After a couple of hours of research and chat with microsoft developers i can say that is a bug.

This is a known issue by Microsoft team and hopefully it will be fixed in the next beta. I could fix this with this two steps:

In the solution folder should be a sub-folder named "wrap". In this folder are sub-folders with project.json files. In this file i had to change "net45" to "dnx451".

I had to change the name of the sub-folder in the bin folder:

\project\wrap{LibraryName}\bin\Release\net45 => \project\wrap{LibraryName}\bin\Release\dnx451

After that i could publish to filesystem.
