Nuget throws exception but shouldn't

[enova]

Hi,

We use Windows forms Syncfusion nuget and we provide source in nuget.config like this:

No i our share we have our analyzer package which is in beta version and is changed very frequent so his version is 1.0.0-betaxxx. When we reference using packagereference like this:

nuget restore works properly. But when we want to restore latest version using wildcards we get this error:

1.0.0-*" />

When syncfusion feed is removed nuget restore Soneta.Analysis properly for this project. We thought that maybe share is thre problem so we switch to local nuget serwer and in that case nuget restore package from local serwer and than try to restore it from syncfusion serwer which end with the same error like above (from local serwer when syncfusion feed is disabled restore works properly).

What can be the reason that your feed throws this exception?

Hi Klaudiusz,   

  

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support.   

   

This might happen due to package manager setting. So, please change the settings like below to resolve the problem.   

The Visual Studio 2017 provides an option to change Package Management in NuGet Package Manger settings. This option available from Visual Studio 2017.  Please change the NuGet Package option in Default Package Management format dropdown. Select packages.config instead of the Package Reference, please refer to the following screenshot.   

   

  After changing the setting please try again. Still if you have face same problem please provide the below details. This will helpful to resolve your problem ASAP.   

1. Share the NuGet Feed link which is you are using.
2. Share the Visual Studio details.
3. Packages.config/project.Json file of your project
4. NuGet.Config file. You can find this file from the below location.

C:\Users\<User Name>\AppData\Roaming\NuGet

Hi,

We have got the same settings in VS as you. We have walkaround but I don't know if it is proper.

We change feed to this (we found this on some forum):

http://nuget.syncfusion.com/nuget_windows-forms/nuget/getsyncfusionpackages/windows-forms

and for this one this:

<PackageReference Include="Soneta.Analysis" Version="1.0.0-*" />

works as we expected. But my question is can we use this feed?

best regards
