Any screenshots or additional context?

Hi @srajanpm, thanks for reporting this issue! We couldn't reproduce your issue, so we came up with some validations for you:

1. Have you tried to install each dependencies separated? The reason is to narrow the problem to only one dependency
2. Did you have installed dotnet-2.1 as prereq?

   npm install -g dotnet-2.1

If the problem is related to botdispatch, we think that this issue should be transferred to botbuilder-tools repository, is that okay with you?

This is our environment:

• macOS Catalina@10.15.4
• node@12.16.3
• npm@6.14.4

We found some related issues for botdispatch in macOS , please follow these issues:

• microsoft/botbuilder-tools#862
• microsoft/botbuilder-tools#176

Hope this helps to you 😊!

Thanks @Batta32

I tried installing dotnet-2.1 and I am getting the same error.

I agree to move to the issue to bot-buildertools repo.

Thanks @srajanpm 😊! @stevengum could you possibly transfer this issue to botbuilder-tools?

[munozemilio]

@tsuwandy could you please take a look at this one?

[tsuwandy]

@srajanpm, have you tried uninstalling dotnet 3.1 and retry the install?

[srajanpm]

@tsuwandy yes I uninstalled dotnet 3.1 and retried the dotnet-2.1 install and it fails with the same error.

[tsuwandy]

@srajanpm, did you check out these related issues (installing on MacOS) added by @Batta32 in earlier thread:

https://github.com/microsoft/botbuilder-tools/issues/862 https://github.com/microsoft/botbuilder-tools/issues/176

.NET Core install instructionfor MacOS: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/dependencies?pivots=os-macos&tabs=netcore31

[srajanpm]

@tsuwandy

I followed #862 and it looks like it helped but not sure.

I tried installing dotnet 2.1 locally instead of globally, seems like dotnet2.1 is installed - i see the following message:

+ dotnet-2.1@2.1.1005 added 1 package and audited 1 package in 1.098s

and an error:

_> node -e "/PostInstall: Installs platform-specific .NET framework /try{require('./dist/app.js')}catch(e){}"

npm WARN saveError ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/srajan/package.json'_

And checking with "dotnet --list-sdks" returns nothing.

[tsuwandy]

862 actually has quite different instructions. Did you pre-install dotnet first (per the prerequisite instructions https://github.com/microsoft/botbuilder-tools/tree/master/packages/Dispatch#prerequisite):
