dot net 8 version issue with patch.ps1 #1

Closed cmhofmeister closed 4 months ago

Hey lextm,

I first want to say I really appreciate you posting this workaround. I've been a developer for many years, but this is my first time dealing with web. I'm trying to get through a 101 course on web apis and when step 1 of a 101 doesn't go well, it is very frustrating. I can't believe that Microsoft, who just came out with the MAUI framework and knows that developers are using MacBooks doesn't see the value in this.

I have tried by best to follow the steps to run the provided scripts successfully on dot net 8, but having an issue. Being a newbie to all of this, I apologize in advance if I'm doing something dumb. If you have a few minutes to support this that would be wonderful, but I get how busy everyone is.

When I start running the script this is the first error message:

C:\>Powershell.exe -File patch.ps1 -msiFolder C:\msi\AttachedContainer
Patch files
Attempting stop...
Internet services successfully stopped
Copy-Item : Cannot find path 'C:\Program Files\IIS\Asp.Net Core Module\V2\18.0.24080\aspnetcorev2_outofprocess.dll'
because it does not exist.

Looking through the script I see that the version information (18.0.24080) seems to be obtained from aspnetcorev2.dll.

When I navigate to that base folder I see there is a version mismatch as I only have this folder:
C:\Program Files\IIS\Asp.Net Core Module\V2\18.0.24081 Please note the 24081 vs 24080.

Aside from hacking the script, I was wondering if you have any idea or comments.

Thanks again.

En, pretty bad the convention was broken. I'll see how we might resolve this issue.

Switched to folder query to determine the version number.

This alternative way should apply to all .NET 7/8 versions, as only one child folder should be there (unless ASP.NET Core team makes another big change in the future).
