That's pretty common if you haven't specified your working directory correctly. How are you starting the app?

Masamune3210 commented 4 months ago

by having the program directory in the system path and executing RdtClient.Web.exe from a terminal window

I have never seen this behaviour yet, what .NET runtime are you using? And where is rdt-client extracted to?

And what command are you using to start the app?

Masamune3210 commented 3 weeks ago

Just the normal one that you would get from Microsoft, if you need any more verbosity on that point you will have to let me know how to give it

.\rdtclient.web.exe

And just to be sure, the appsettings.json file is in the same folder right?

Masamune3210 commented 3 weeks ago

Yep, executing .\rdtclient.web.exe in the folder where the exe resides alongside its other files works fine, but just executing rdtclient.web.exe outside of the folder attempts to look for the json in the cwd instead of the directory the executable is in, saying

Could it possibly be from this line? It seems to be adding the json but not specifying a directory before it, which if I'm not mistaken, causes it to look for the folder in the working directory
