@JonathanLoscalzo, look under %appdata%/NuGet/NuGet.Config and remove any references to CLIFallbackFolder from it. This is an entry that we no longer need in preview3. If you do that, you will get the real error, which is that we can’t find the M.NC.App package. The reason for that is that the runtime between the CLI and asp.net are out of sync and when that happens, you need the feed above.

Still, I am moving this issue to NuGet, I don’t think NuGet should say that it failed to find the package on that feed if the folder is empty, it should just say that it failed to find the package.

@livarcocc Could you please comment? Moving the NuGet.config file to the same folder doesn’t work for me, and I see the same problem with 2.0.0-preview3-006609. This is on a win10 clean machine without %appdata%/NuGet folder.
