Path not supported - Build failure IOS

whann0205 commented 3 years ago

Unable to copy file "..\AssetQueryApp\wwwroot\css\AssetQuery.css" to "C:\Users\HANN~1.HAN\AppData\Local\Temp\Xamarin\HotRestart\Signing\AssetQueryApp.iOS.app\out\Payload\AssetQueryApp.iOS.app\D:\VCSource\repos\AssetQueryApp\AssetQueryApp\wwwroot\css\AssetQuery.css". The given path's format is not supported. AssetQueryApp.iOS

Regardless which Version of Visual Studio i always get this message if it try to build IOS. It does not matter if put to a local device or to a remote mac. As i can see above there is are two backslashes before the Drive Letter which looks like it assumes to have an UNC Path! --> \D: Can you please help me fix that ?

Can you share what the CSPROJ looks like?

whann0205 commented 3 years ago

AssetQueryApp.iOS.zip AssetQueryApp.Android.zip

I have included both android csproj and the ios one.

whann0205 commented 3 years ago

Its not only within that application. It can be tested simply creating a new project based on your template Build your first hybrid app... Here Again Android no problem with IOS the infamous path not supported error!

Tested again with a different computer. But again the projects folder is on a different harddisk D: Same problem - path not supported error. Unable to copy file "..\FirstBlazorHybridApp\wwwroot\css\open-iconic\font\fonts\open-iconic.svg" to "C:\Users\Annem\AppData\Local\Temp\Xamarin\HotRestart\Signing\FirstBlazorHybridApp.iOS.app\out\Payload\FirstBlazorHybridApp.iOS.app\D:\Vcsource\source\repos\FirstBlazorHybridApp\FirstBlazorHybridApp\wwwroot\css\open-iconic\font\fonts\open-iconic.svg". The given path's format is not supported

FirstMobileBlazorBindingsApp buillds ok and runs even on a iphone6! Are hybrid supposed to work on the ios platform? Any help would be highly appreciated

Eilon commented 3 years ago

Hi @whann0205 I just installed the Mobile Blazor Bindings templates on a new Windows computer and it all seemed to run fine for both iOS (through the remote iOS Simulator) and locally on Windows. Everything compiled and ran as expected.

I see HotRestart showing up in the path names of the error message you have. I wonder if you have some option in VS enabled that I don't have enabled?

Eilon commented 3 years ago

Also, can you check exactly which version of VS you have? Open the VS that you were using for this project, go to Help/About, press "Copy Info", and paste here.

Hi Eilon! Sorry for the delay, but i wanted to test every possible thing before posting. Below you find the info pasted from Copy Info inside VS. I have updated VS yesterday to the latest version 16.10.2 because i hoped that it maybe solves my problem, but unfortuneatly it does not or not fully. Before i have been using 16.10.1 which configuration i have pasted as well. For easier troubleshooting i installed your example application with dotnet new blazorhybrid -o FirstBlazorHybridApp. I can confirm that deploying to a remote mac´s simulator does indeeed work now! With or without hot restart enabled, although vs studio hangs afterwards. Deploying to the local device results in that infamous part not supported error. Hot Restart must be enabled in order to be able to deploy to the locally attached iphone, so its not possible to try without hot restart. Tested again with my app against the remote mac and its working now, yah!! With 16.10.1 it wasn´t even possible to deploy to the remote mac i got MessagingRemoteException: An error occurred on client Build1610000230 while executing a reply for topic xvs/build/execute-task/FirstBlazorHybridApp.iOS/17bd5ba002fACTool IOException: Sharing violation on path /Users/xcodeclub/Library/Caches/Xamarin/mtbs/builds/FirstBlazorHybridApp.iOS/17bd5ba7e8b828e834e23c166e9ea1b3f47ef313acadf9480788415842b317f3/Assets.xcassets/AppIcon.appiconset/Contents.json FirstBlazorHybridApp.iOS Again locally attached iphone fails to build with this project and getting the path not supported error. Naturally it would be quite nice to test the application on a real device. Maybe i can fetch the ipa and use itunes to deploy to that device? Many thanks for trying to help! I know that this project is experimental, but i hope it gets released soon. Its so exciting to use blazor and c# for programming on mobile devices! I tried .net6 preview 4 also for that matter but quit it because i got much more troubles, but will definitly watch that progress here, too.
