visual studio and docker-compose not working.

[AnthonyDewhirst]

I created a brand new .net 6 web app and selected enable docker support, I then copied in the latest app insights and configured.

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">

    <PropertyGroup>
        <TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework>
        <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
        <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
        <UserSecretsId>98a17432-a18a-471c-b956-6cd9f60a0ca3</UserSecretsId>
        <DockerDefaultTargetOS>Linux</DockerDefaultTargetOS>
        <DockerComposeProjectPath>..\docker-compose.dcproj</DockerComposeProjectPath>
    </PropertyGroup>

    <ItemGroup>
        <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Profiler.AspNetCore" Version="2.5.0" />
        <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Azure.Containers.Tools.Targets" Version="1.17.0" />
    </ItemGroup>

</Project>

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// Add services to the container.
builder.Services.AddApplicationInsightsTelemetry();
builder.Services.AddRazorPages();

var app = builder.Build();

// Configure the HTTP request pipeline.
if (!app.Environment.IsDevelopment())
{
    app.UseExceptionHandler("/Error");
    // The default HSTS value is 30 days. You may want to change this for production scenarios, see https://aka.ms/aspnetcore-hsts.
    app.UseHsts();
}

app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseStaticFiles();

app.UseRouting();

app.UseAuthorization();

app.MapRazorPages();

app.Run();

and (appsettings.development.json):

{
  "DetailedErrors": true,
  "Logging": {
    "LogLevel": {
      "Default": "Information"
    }
  },
  "ApplicationInsights": {
    "InstrumentationKey": "<guid>"
  }
}

I then ran using "docker" - not docker compose The AI telemetry appeared straight away. All was well.

I then used the instructions at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/containers/tutorial-multicontainer?view=vs-2022 to ad the docker-compose project.

I then started using "docker-compose". Now the application insights are no longer collected by visual studio.

Hi AnthonyDewhirst, it looks like you are looking for information about enabling application insights (not yet the profiler) in your project. Could you please file an issue here: https://github.com/microsoft/ApplicationInsights-dotnet? Tagging TimothyMothra for awareness.

I am closing this since it is not actionable for this repo. Feel free to file new issues if/when profiler get into the picture and if there's any trouble.
