warning NETSDK1198: A publish profile with the name 'DefaultContainer' was not found in the project

[dviry]

When publishing a solution (about 30 projects), I get this warning on every project:

C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\8.0.102\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.NET.Publish.targets(204,5): 
warning NETSDK1198: A publish profile with the name 'DefaultContainer' was not found in the project. 
Set the PublishProfile property to a valid file name.

The container creation still works, but I think this warning should be handled (by not passing the PublishProfile to the inner build?)

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately we can't really change this behavior easily. I'd suggest that instead of publish profiles at the solution level, you instead try using the MSBuild target directly: dotnet publish /t:PublishContainer - this behaves identically to the DefaultContainer PublishProfile method, but it also works for console applications and is the more MSBuild-native way of accomplishing the goal. We're moving towards this in all of our documentation and examples going forward.

This doesn't help much - now instead of warnings I am getting build errors (for each and every project):

error MSB4057: The target "PublishContainer" does not exist in the project

Maybe some info on how to adjust the .csproj to avoid those build errors?

Thanks

If you upgrade to 8.0.200 that should just work, can you try that?

Installed 8.0.201 (was on 8.0.102) and it indeed resolved those build errors.

Thanks!
