OctoPack 3.5.0 UseProductVersion

Legacy Execution
1

Hi, I have just upgraded from OctoPack 3.4.7 to 3.5.0 and now my solution won’t build with a problem in OctoPack.3.5.0\build\OctoPack.targets:

\packages\OctoPack.3.5.0\build\OctoPack.targets(47,72): error MSB4064: The “UseProductVersion” parameter is not supported by the “GetAssemblyVersionInfo” task. Verify the parameter exists on the task, and it is a settable public instance property.

Any ideas how to get around this?

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out! Could you please send me the build log where I can see the MSBuild comments that are being passed? If you are running if from the VS Console, send me a screenshot where I can see the full command + output.

Finally please also send the contents of your AssemblyInfo.cs file.

Thanks!

Hi Dalmiro

It fails from both MSBuild.exe (via Team City) and in Visual Studio itself. I had downgraded OctoPack back to 3.4.7 (like the other projects in the solution still use) so just upgraded this one project to 3.5.0 and this is the VS build output:

1>------ Rebuild All started: Project: dunnhumby.IdSrv.Core.Interfaces, Configuration: Release Any CPU ------

AssemblyInfo.cs is attached too.

And just to confirm, it’s not just a single project that fails, if I choose another project to upgrade to 3.5.0 to it fails - with the same OctoPack.targets error

Hi Gavin,

The parameter UseProductVersion was introduced in version 3.5.0 and I have just double checked that it works.

If I try to run a 3.5.0 OctoPack.targets against a 3.4.7 OctoPack.Tasks.dll I get the same error that you are seeing so I am wondering if your OctoPack install is getting mixed up somehow?

3.5.1 will output the OctoPack version so hopefully that will help determine what is happening.

Cheers,
Shane
