Additional Context

[kippesp]

I’ve got it working by obtaining the binary ArtifactTool_win10-x64_0.2.128 (via a less secure Windows system) and placing it into the correct directory manually. Another person in my org used the --debug data to identify the .zip and manually download the zip and do the same thing.

I suspect @marklindell would have success by running the az command again with the --debug flag, capture the output, find the line with “ArtifactTool”, grab that URL, download with curl (or maybe a browser), unzip the contents into USER/.azure/azuredevops/cli/tools/artifacttool/ArtifactTool_win10-x64_0.2.128 (or whatever the zip file root name is).

No idea why I have to do this, but I think there is behind the scenes security software involved.

The fix was to add retries to the file handling and adding additional logging to get more information out of this error. If you are using azure devops extension 0.17.0 and still seeing the issue then please paste the detailed logs and we can investigate this further.

@atbagga Let’s keep this open for now and we will check the new logs to determine if this is the same issue or not.

Adding @satbai as well.
