Is there an existing issue for this?

• [X] I have searched the existing issues

Description

Trying to run command from https://abp.io/get-started and the running generated command it is looping infinitely:

Reproduction Steps

dotnet tool install -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli

abp new abptest -t app-nolayers --ui no-ui -dbms SQLite --theme leptonx-lite -csf

Expected behavior

To create a project

Actual behavior

It is looping, restarting and doesn't create anything

Regression?

Never tried before

Known Workarounds

No response

Version

0.7.8

User Interface

MVC

Database Provider

EF Core (Default)

Tiered or separate authentication server

None (Default)

Operation System

Windows (Default)

Other information

Any command gives the same loop. Even abp --help

[enisn]

Probably it still works,

It shows an animation and updates the exact same line to show an animation. Your terminal app may not support updates and adds the updated content as a new line.

@ahmetfarukulu can you confirm this?

I think problem related with your nuget cache folder, if the folder requires admin privileges CLI also should start as administrator.

You can run dotnet nuget locals all --list this command to see the nuget global-packages cache path.

In that folder there should be volo.abp.studio.extensions.standardsolutiontemplates directory.

@ahmetfarukulu hi, command dotnet nuget locals all --list gives output:

http-cache: C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\NuGet\v3-cache
global-packages: D:\NugetPackages
temp: C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Temp\NuGetScratch
plugins-cache: C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\NuGet\plugins-cache

There is volo.abp.studio.extensions.standardsolutiontemplates inside D:\Nuget\Packages folder:

I have tried to run terminal as administrator and the looping is still on:

I am also using the similar path. It might be related to the NuGet cache. You can execute this command dotnet nuget locals all --clear and try again. If the issue still occurs, can you share the logs from the %UserProfile%\.abp\cli\logs path?

command abp new abptest -t app-nolayers --ui no-ui -dbms SQLite --theme leptonx-lite -csf is still looping.

As you can see, there are problems during the global cache clearing process as well. The issue is related to your global cache path. Can you change the global NuGet cache path and try again?

You can set global path;

• Open terminal as administrator.
• Run command setx /m NUGET_PACKAGES "D:\packages\nuget"

I also had the same problem, how did you solve it?

[tombohub]

@ahmetfarukulu

1. I have run the command as administrator

   setx /m NUGET_PACKAGES "D:\packages\nuget"

output:

PS D:\PROJEKTI> setx /m NUGET_PACKAGES "D:\packages\nuget"

SUCCESS: Specified value was saved.

.

2. I run the command in the same as administrator terminal

abp new abptest -t app-nolayers --ui no-ui -dbms SQLite --theme leptonx-lite -csf\c:

output:

PS D:\PROJEKTI\prototypes> abp new abptest -t app-nolayers --ui no-ui -dbms SQLite --theme leptonx-lite -csf\c

Looks like it's still the same looping.

@tombohub @usoftadmin

I can reproduce the problem when the NuGet global cache directory's volo.abp.studio.extensions.standardsolutiontemplates folder is corrupted (for example, if there is a folder like 0.7.9 but the folder content is empty). So, you can simply remove the volo.abp.studio.extensions.standardsolutiontemplates folder. Afterward, when you execute the abp command, it will download the related version package.

To find the correct NuGet cache directory, first execute the dotnet nuget locals all --list command. Then, remove the volo.abp.studio.extensions.standardsolutiontemplates folder.

In the next version, this process will be automated, so I am closing the issue. Feel free to reopen it if the problem still exists.

[tombohub]

@ahmetfarukulu after reinstalling the tool and creating the project

dotnet tool install -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli

abp new abptest -t app-nolayers --ui no-ui -dbms SQLite --theme leptonx-lite -csf

It is not longer looping. Thanks @ahmetfarukulu

I have reassigned the directories NUGET_HTTP_CACHE_PATH、NUGET_PACKAGES、NUGET_PLUGINS_CACHE_PATH、NUGET_SCRATCH in the environment variables. For example:
