Thanks @jmezach and @PinpointTownes. The space in the path does appear to be the problem. It’s good to know how to repro the issue. Makes my job a lot easier. 😄

I will get a fix for it today hopefully.

@eerhardt FYI, I’m also seeing this bug, which only reproduces when there’s a space in the project path (maybe caused by a few missing quotes somewhere?).

Compiling AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Extensions for .NETStandard,Version=v1.4

C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe compile-csc @G:\space in path\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Server\src\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Extensions\obj\Debug\netstandard1.4\dotnet-compile.rsp returned Exit Code 1

You can see that the path used (and returned) by dotnet build is totally wrong:

G:\space in path\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Server\src\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Extensions\path\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Server\src\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Extensions\bin\Debug\netstandard1.4\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Extensions.xml

While it should be:

G:\space in path\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Server\src\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Extensions\bin\Debug\netstandard1.4\AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Extensions.xml

(on a totally unrelated note, thank you very much for the unicode bug fix 😄)
