Pdb2Pdb.exe failed with -532462766

[forki]

local build on master (31a98b9) after git clean -xdf with build.cmd debug:

[forki]

calling it manuall and we see netstandard can't be found:

[abelbraaksma]

I linked issue #6182, not sure it's related as that was not a .NET Standard project, but this remarkably unique error number is the same.

Also, in the referred issue, the problem went away after compiling a second time. Was that the case here too?

@tmat any ideas about this error? I haven't seen it myself

[tmat]

No idea :(

[cartermp]

I just tried with both master and dev16.0 and it doesn't reproduce😕

[forki]

No it does only reproduce in one of my machines. The other one is fine Am Mo., 11. Feb. 2019, 23:45 hat Phillip Carter <notifications@github.com> geschrieben:

@forki for the machine that repros the issue, what version of VS is installed.

And can you attach the fsharp.proj.build.binlog from the artifacts\logs\debug directory please

Thanks

[forki]

sure.

15.9.6

fsharp.proj.build.zip

@forki, it would seem as if the runtime can't find netstandard.dll
When running this command:

"C:\Users\Steffen\.nuget\packages\Pdb2Pdb\1.1.0-beta1-63314-01\tools\Pdb2Pdb.exe" "d:\code\visualfsharp\artifacts\bin\FSharp.Core\Debug\net45\FSharp.Core.dll" /out "d:\code\visualfsharp\artifacts\SymStore\net45\FSharp.Core.pdb" /srcsvrvar SRC_INDEX=public

Gives this message:

Unbehandelte Ausnahme: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Die Datei oder Assembly "netstandard, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51" oder eine Abhängigkeit davon wurde nicht gefunden. Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.

On my machine it locates it from the GAC:

I suppose the install of the desktop framework might have gone wrong:

To see what versions of netstandard you have in the GAC:

type:
gacutil -l netstandard

Microsoft (R) .NET Global Assembly Cache Utility.  Version 4.0.30319.0
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

The Global Assembly Cache contains the following assemblies:
  netstandard, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51, processorArchitecture=MSIL

Number of items = 1

c:\microsoft\visualfsharp\fcs>

[forki]

but why would I habe that? and why does it need it in GAC?

[KevinRansom]

@forki, I have no idea .. to both questions. netstandard.dll is deployed with the desktop dotnet framework into the framework directory, and I believe should load from there.

What version of the desktop framework is installed on your machine:
I am using 4.7.2

[forki]

ok it looks like I don't have 4.7.2 and I can't install it (because WIndows!) - anyway DEVGUIDE only lists 4.6 as requirement.

[cartermp]

Ergh, looks like we'll need to update that. Although the projects themselves don't require it in master, it looks like we do actually have a dependency on net472, since we're now working with netstandard2.0 components. I'll update it.

@forki You should be able to install it from the VS installer as a redistributable. I believe it will cause a reboot if you're on an older version of Windows though.
