dotnet Initialization fails with multiple nuget sources

[nasfra]

Steps to reproduce

I am running dotnet version 1.0.4.
I have the following nuget configuration file in folder C:\Program Files (x86)\NuGet\Config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSource>
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
    <add key="syncfusion" value="http://nuget.syncfusion.com/aspnet" />
  </packageSource>
  <packageRestore>
    <add key="enabled" value="True" />
    <add key="automatic" value="True" />
  </packageRestore>
  <bindingRedirects>
    <add key="skip" value="False" />
  </bindingRedirects>
</configuration>

I am trying to install a new template, Fable.Template. I run the following command

dotnet new -i Fable.Template::*

Expected behavior

I would expect the Fable.Template package to be downloaded from the first soure (nuget.org) and installed.

Actual behavior

nuget is ignoring the first source declared in the nuget.config file (the nuget source) and is attempting to download the packages from the second source (syncfusion).

I get the following error

Restoring packages for C:\Users\user.folder\.templateengine\dotnetcli\v1.0.4\scratch\restore.csproj...

I don't believe this is a location that nuget looks for when trying to find NuGet.Config files: C:\Program Files (x86)\NuGet\Config.

@emgarten to confirm.

[nasfra]

I checked the entire drive and there is a bunch of nuget.config files to be found! They either have the same content as in C:\Program Files (x86)\NuGet\Config or contain only a single node:

<configuration>
  <solution>
    <add key="disableSourceControlIntegration" value="true" />
  </solution>
</configuration>

Looking at fiddler output I can see the process of dotnet ignoring the other available packageSources.

Thanks for the help with this!

[emgarten]

@nasfra run nuget.exe sources from the project folder to see all package sources discovered.
http://dist.nuget.org/index.html

You may need to copy the NuGet.Config file you pasted to %appdata%/NuGet/NuGet.Config which is the default location that restore will use to find sources.

[nasfra]

The details of my setting are:

• Windows 10
• Visual Studio 2015 installed
• Visual Sutdio 2017 installed
• This is the first project I attempt to do using the command line/dotnet
• I am trying to use the templates created by Fable, start reading at How do I start?

I don't have a project in my folder yet, since I am trying to create one.

Nuget is not in my path, so I just ran the nuget.exe resources from a .net project and I receive the following output

Registered sources:

1. nuget.org [active]
   https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/
2. syncfusion [active]
   http://nuget.syncfusion.com/aspnet
3. Microsoft Visual Studio Offline Packages [active]
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\NuGetPackages\

The %appdata/NuGet/NuGet.Config file is available. It has the following node:

  <packageSources>
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/" />
    <add key="syncfusion" value="http://nuget.syncfusion.com/aspnet" />
  </packageSources>

Thank you for your help on this!

@nasfra remove syncfusion from your packageSources, it looks like it is having problems. From the Fable guide it doesn't look like this is needed for Fable.

[nasfra]

Removing SyncFusion from my sources works in this case, but isn't really practical! I need SyncFusion for my work: visual Studio needs it, build scripts need it, etc. If I remove SyncFusion source form the config file, it is no longer available to all these resources.

[emgarten]

@nasfra this looks like an issue with syncfusion, have you contacted them to find out what might be wrong?

[livarcocc]

Closing this issue since this seems to have been resolved and we haven't had activity here in a while. Re-activate if that's not the case.

Hi, the same error appears on my machine, too:

I have the following sources (retrieved by nuget sources):

1. nuget.org [Enabled]
   https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json
2. Genscape_local [Enabled]
   http://genbuild02.genscape.com:8181/artifactory/api/nuget/genscape-internal-nuget-local
3. Genscape_debug [Enabled]
   http://genbuild02.genscape.com:8181/artifactory/api/nuget/genscape-internal-nuget-debug
4. Microsoft Visual Studio Offline Packages [Enabled]
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\NuGetPackages\

run dotnet new -i Fable.Template and result:

Edit:
On my personal PC, where there are no other sources the command runs fine.

It seems like you have a feed that is not correct and that NuGet cannot find, therefore failing restore. Do you actually need the feed that's failing?

[Stefanpu13]

Hi, thanks for the suggestion.
Trying will other templates also fails (ruled out problem with fable template)
Disabling the sources from VS-> Options -> NUGet Package Manager did not help (though it modified the global Nuget.Config file)
Deleting the sources from the global Nuget.Config file helped.
However, I still think that it is better to try all sources even if some of them fail - after all, my Nuget.Config`s "packageSources" tag has 3 keys, but only two of them were tested

[richardwhatever]

I get problem too.

[ckpearson]

Yeah, this is happening for me too.

<add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
<add key="CliFallbackFolder" value="C:\Users\Clint\.dotnet\NuGetFallbackFolder" />
<add key="[SECRET]" value="[SECRET]" />

I need the [SECRET] source for some client work, and I clearly have the primary feed configured, so my only guess is that it's trying the private feed and kak'ing itself when it fails and then just bails.

The console output is basically just it retrying loads to find the package in the private feed and getting a 401 and freaking out.

This is for the Giraffe template.
