dotnet-install: Failed to verify the version of installed ".NET Core SDK".

[MichalStrehovsky]

I'm using the setup-dotnet Github action to install the latest 9.0 daily build.

I'm getting the error in the subject. Full log:

FWIW, here is how my Github workflow invokes the action:

https://github.com/MichalStrehovsky/rt-sz/blob/49efb3c6bbf5eeeb3480945d26181aaac9fe5137/.github/workflows/sizestats.yml#L121-L125

Here is the failing run: https://github.com/MichalStrehovsky/rt-sz/actions/runs/8874728405/job/24363235450

This worked fine 3 days ago and I didn't make any changes in the repo for a while.

Hi @MichalStrehovsky,

According to the logs, there was a problem with checking if the package was installed locally successfully, after the unpacking the archive with sdk.
Unfortunately, the normal verbosity log doesn't let me understand what kind of restrictions it may have faced.
I don't see the support of -verbose parameter in the action itself..

Could you just try to rerun it? Probably the was a temporary issue with the build machine.

[MichalStrehovsky]

It succeeded on a rerun. I guess since we don't have the log we won't know what went wrong and there's nothing left to investigate. Thanks!

[YuliiaKovalova]

@MichalStrehovsky, I have requested the support for the scripts verbosity output.
Once available, you can enable it by default: actions/setup-dotnet#522

Hello @YuliiaKovalova, I am still seeing this issue when running the command line: powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass .\dotnet-install.ps1 -InstallDir .\plz_dlt -Architecture x64 -Channel 9.0 -Quality daily on windows. The full execution is as follows:

Is there any other steps we can take to hopefully figure out why this is failing?

[YuliiaKovalova]

Hi @LoopedBard3 ,

Could you please rerun it with -Verbose argument specified and attach the log?

Thank you!

[YuliiaKovalova]

We were able to reproduce it on our side, I am working on the resolution.

[ViktorHofer]

@mmitche submitted a change that will fix this but the change hasn't yet reached installer because dependency flow is blocked right now because of a source-build re-bootstrap issue. Once that is resolved, bits should be flowing again and the blob won't contain duplicate assets anymore.

You can the track the status of dependency flow via this PR: dotnet/installer#19634

[mmitche]

My change should have resolved the issue immediately (since it affected sdk's official builds immediately). If you see this again, let us know

[mmitche]

Looking closer, the main build is broken, this change dotnet/installer#19641 will end up being the resolution.

[YuliiaKovalova]

@mmitche, I have just validated the fix - it works now!
Thank you for addressing it.
