Running aspnet-codegenerator I get: MvcControllerWithContext.cshtml no found.

Steps to reproduce:

Following the MVC Net Core tutorial until this point. Install locally dotnet-ef and dotnet-aspnet-codegenerator and the following packages.

Steps later in the tutorial, run this: export PATH=$HOME/.dotnet/tools:$PATH, and this(my case):

dotnet aspnet-codegenerator controller -name SessionController -m Session -dc ApplicationDbContext --relativeFolderPath Controllers --useDefaultLayout --referenceScriptLibraries

Expected behavior:

Generate SessionControllers and Views.

Actual behavior:

I get this error:

Building project ...
Finding the generator 'controller'...
Running the generator 'controller'...
Attempting to compile the application in memory.
Attempting to figure out the EntityFramework metadata for the model and DbContext: 'Session'
A file matching the name MvcControllerWithContext.cshtml was not found within any of the folders:

   at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.CodeGeneration.ActionInvoker.Execute(String[] args)
   at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.CodeGeneration.CodeGenCommand.Execute(String[] args)
RunTime 00:00:07.88

EDIT:

I installed dotnet-ef and dotnet-aspnet-codegenerator globally, but I get the same error. I notice that I have configured this var: NUGET_PACKAGES=/home/dlag/.config/nuget/packages. In that path, I have the error file: packages/microsoft.visualstudio.web.codegenerators.mvc/3.1.2/Templates/ControllerGenerator/MvcControllerWithContext.cshtml I try coping .config/nuget to .nuget but same error. How can I tell dotnet to look for this path?

Hello dlagg, I found the way how to solve this. Please downgrade your version from v3.1.4 to v3.1.0 by using these commands:

dotnet tool uninstall --global dotnet-aspnet-codegenerator
dotnet tool install --global dotnet-aspnet-codegenerator --version 3.1.0
