Hi, @dotnet

It does work with dotnet run in my VM/Debian 9. But It can be running with docker run -v /example/mysource/:/source etc... microsoft/aspnetcore-build:1.0-2.0 ... with the docker image microsoft/aspnetcore-build:1.0-2.0.

The command dotnet build -f netcoreapp2.0 works well without any output. However the command dotnet run -f netcoreapp2.0 run with an error message The build failed. Please fix the build errors and run again.. It was confuse to me, What’s the problem?

error

$ dotnet build -f netcoreapp2.0
$ dotnet run -f netcoreapp2.0

The build failed. Please fix the build errors and run again.

P.S The dotnet run works well with a simple console application.

$ dotnet new console -o hwapp

I closed down VS Code, and then reopened my program folder. It worked. I think my the program was stuck in a loop. ;/

@KelechiDivine I don’t know why I am getting an email about your comment 6 months late, but the only other suggestion I would have for this issue is to update VS Code, and restart. For the past 18 months I have been working with Java 8, Spring, Struts 2, and using IntelliJ IDE. Good luck for anyone that experiences this issue in the future!
