Workload installation fails with "Number of entries expected in End Of Central Directory does not correspond to number of entries in Central Directory"

philippjbauer commented 2 years ago

Description

Can't install Maui workload on macOS Monterey (12.1) on Apple Silicon ARM64 with sudo dotnet workload install maui or subset of maui, like maui-ios.

I am getting the following error, every single time:

Workload installation failed: 
Number of entries expected in End Of Central Directory 
does not correspond to number of entries in Central Directory.

All prerequisites are installed according to official install instructions. Fresh install of latest .NET 6 SDK 6.0.101. maui-check is checking out without problems.

Steps to Reproduce

Run sudo dotnet workload install maui in CLI.

Did you find any workaround?

I found a workaround encountering download issues with the dotnet workload install command. This involves some helpful, but unfortunately undocumented, command options I figured out by looking into the source code in the .NET SDK GitHub repo. 😮‍💨

⚠️ Attention
This requires a \*nix shell environment. You can probably get this working in Powershell as well.

🗒 Note
The following commands use sources specifically for installation of MAUI Preview 12.
If you want to use stable workloads the same instructions should apply but without the 
need for the rollback file or sources.

Download URLS

First you have to download the URLs to the needed workload nuget packages.

# Get all URLS
dotnet workload install maui \
    --print-download-link-only \
    --skip-manifest-update \
    --from-rollback-file https://aka.ms/dotnet/maui/preview.12.json \
    --source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/dnceng/public/_packaging/dotnet6/nuget/v3/index.json \
    --source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/azure-public/vside/_packaging/xamarin-impl/nuget/v3/index.json

# Example Output
Resolving package URLs for workload(s) maui...
    ==allPackageLinksJsonOutputStart==
["https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/dnceng/9ee6d478-d288-47f7-aacc-f6e6d082ae6d/_packaging/825db618-e3eb-4426-ba54-b1d6e6c944d8/nuget/v3/flat2/microsoft.netcore.app.runtime.mono.android-arm/6.0.2-mauipre.1.22054.8/microsoft.netcore.app.runtime.mono.android-arm.6.0.2-mauipre.1.22054.8.nupkg",
 ... ]
==allPackageLinksJsonOutputEnd==

Create list of URLs

Then you follow the next steps to create a file with all links, ready to be used with wget.

Paste package links JSON into a new text file, e.g. maui.workload.preview-12.txt.
Replace all , with newline, remove [, ] and ".
Create new folder, e.g. maui.nuget.cache.
Change into new folder.

Download packages

Use wget command inside of new cache folder to download all packages from text file.

wget -nv --show-progress -nc -c -i maui.workload.preview-12.txt

You can retry as often as needed, use ctrl-c to cancel when the download gets stuck and use the command again to continue where the download stopped. wget will skip files you already downloaded.

Install workload from disk

Now use the downloaded files from your local cache to install the workload.

sudo dotnet workload install maui \
    --from-cache ~/path/to/maui.nuget.cache \
    --skip-manifest-update \
    --from-rollback-file https://aka.ms/dotnet/maui/preview.12.json \
    --source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/dnceng/public/_packaging/dotnet6/nuget/v3/index.json \
    --source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/azure-public/vside/_packaging/xamarin-impl/nuget/v3/index.json

Use the same sources to restore a project

dotnet restore \
    --source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/dnceng/public/_packaging/dotnet6/nuget/v3/index.json \
    --source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/azure-public/vside/_packaging/xamarin-impl/nuget/v3/index.json

That should do it.

Related to #3021

The last comment points to documentation that was moved / official docs were no help.

Unfortunately the answer as of now is basically try again, this appears to be a transient network error of some type.

You can track discussion/progress here, as this is a dotnet/sdk level bug: https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/20849

philippjbauer commented 2 years ago

Thank you for the quick reply and reference @Redth!

philippjbauer commented 2 years ago

It worked eventually after retrying a bunch of times.

philippjbauer commented 2 years ago

@Redth I found a workaround for this and added it to the OP. Do you think this could find a place over in the SDK issue you linked to help people with similar download issues that discover that thread?

Redth commented 2 years ago

Please add your findings to the issue in their repo. I'm not familiar with their code base but I can raise the issue again with the team if you've shared new/more info.

Thanks!
