Amazon Linux 2 Configuration Transform error

Octopus Server
, ,
1

I’m trying to deploy .net core application on Amazon Linux 2.

Octopus server is 2019.3.3

I’ve did steps from https://octopus.com/docs/infrastructure/deployment-targets/linux/tentacle and everything looks good except config transform.
For testing I have minimum config that looks so:

nlog.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <targets >
    <target xsi:type="File" />
  </targets>
</nlog>

and nlog.release.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xmlns:xdt="http://schemas.microsoft.com/XML-Document-Transform">
  <targets xdt:Transform="Replace">
    <target  xsi:type="File" name="infoFile"/>
  </targets>
</nlog>

In step I have config transform as

nlog.release.config => nlog.config

Step is failing with error:

Transforming '<package_path>/nlog.config' using '<package_path>/nlog.release.config'.

Adding

Octopus.Action.Package.EnableDiagnosticsConfigTransformationLogging True

not provides additional logging

Windows deployment for same config working without exceptions for same transform.
How can I fix it?

Hi @scvot66,

Thanks for getting in touch and sending through all of that helpful information. I’m sorry to hear you’re hitting this strange issue. I see the xsi namespace is declared with xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" so the error System.Xml.XmlException: 'xsi' is an undeclared prefix is certainly unexpected.

I haven’t had any luck reproducing this error, however. I was running through a test in my local instance (2020.2.11), so I’m confident the issue you’re facing is something that has been addressed/fixed since 2019.3.3. Would you be willing/able to upgrade at earliest convenience and let me know if that fixes this issue in your case?

I look forward to hearing back!

Best regards,

Kenny

Hi @scvot66,

This issue has been fixed in 2020.4 Octopus version.
