TFS Won't Restore one NuGet package

I've got TFS doing some continuous integration builds. Today, when setting up a new solution, I couldn't get it to work. It seems it can't find AutoMapper. All the other packages can be found just fine.
A couple relevant points:
* None of the packages are in source control, we're letting TFS restore them.
* We have an internal NuGet feed, but it doesn't seem to be a problem in other solutions, and in this solution we are still getting Entity Framework to restore - just not AutoMapper.
* I tried removing and re-adding the NuGet Packages. No luck.
* If I use Remote Desktop to connect to the build server and open the project in Visual Studio there, it restores the packages and builds fine.
This is from the TFS Logs:

Hi Pharylon,
Thanks for your reply.
You’re using TFS 2013?
TFS 2013 Build will run below two commands in order and separately to build solution on build agent machine, please manually run below two commands on your build agent machine to check result and find why cannot run command successfully.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0\Tools\nuget.exe restore "C:\Builds\ID\teamprojectname\builddefinitionname\src\solutionname.sln" -NonInteractive

Attempting to do private browsing session froze Firefox, then won't restore one of the 2 windows I had open (with multiple tabs in each). Only 1 window is able to be restored now.

I had 2 windows open in Firefox. Each had multiple tabs open in each window. I then attempted to do private browsing session, but then a pop-up box appeared asking me something about a script (related to private browsing). This froze Firefox. So I had to close Firefox using ctrl-alt-del. I tried to re-open Firefox, but only one of the windows will restore now (with the tabs that were previously open). I clicked on "History" in the menu bar and the "Recently Closed Windows" phrase is grayed out. Is there a way to go about restoring this window? I considered doing a restore to 3 days ago in my History tab, but I am worried that this will erase all the bookmarks I've made in the past 3 days. I've also considered going manually into history and trying to forage through each, but many of these tabs have been open for about a 3-4 weeks now as I've been keeping them all open for research. So they would be buried under hundreds-thousands of other pages. (I've done a lot of browsing). Should I just call it a loss? I appreciate any help.

I removed add-on BetterPrivacy. No problems since then anymore.

TFS Online Builds Fail Sometimes on Package Restore

We are currently getting errors with package restore for TFS online build.
C:\a\src\Web\Web\.nuget\NuGet.targets
(100): Unable to find version 'XXX' of package 'YYYY'.
It worked earlier for the same solution, but to another build definition/website. And yes, it has worked many times for this build definition/website. We periodically get these failures on a given day. Maybe twice a month.
It always seems to be environment related as the errors just go away. On occasion, the VSO support site has shown a problem status (not green). But often the status is green.
Does anyone else have this problem occur this often? We like using VSO and Azure for the most part. But the builds are just killing us. They are vey, very slow compared to what we can do locally and not very reliable.

The package restore workflow has been changed by NuGet team. For Team Foundation Build 2013 on-premises and Visual Studio Online (formerly Team Foundation Service), the default Build Process Templates already implement the NuGet Package Restore
workflow without any special configuration.
Please ensure you have applied the right way to do package restore in your solution hosted in VSO and try to build again.
Have a look at below links for more details:

Nuget package consuming issue through VSIX

My solution contains 20 projects and am consuming 5 nuget packages like Json, AutoFac, etc. I want to create a project template which will have 15 projects from my solution. So I followed below steps.
1. Using "export template" feature I exported the 15 projects.
2. Unzipped them and added a root .vstemplate file along with them to create the VSIX installer.
3. Added below xml template to each projects that consuming the nuggets.
<WizardExtension>
        <Assembly>MyWizard, Version=1.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a, Custom=null</Assembly>
    </WizardExtension>
    <WizardData>
      nugget details........
    </WizardData>
Now my issue is that after installing the VSIX although the projects is added successfully, the nugget references are not getting added. Those are showing with yellow exclamation mark after following the manage/restore nugget also. How to resolve it.
Also is there any way to export all the projects at a time instead of exporting them as templates one by one.

TFS online build error in NuGet.targets

Just yesterday, all of our TFS online builds started failing with the same NuGet.targets error
C:\a\src\.nuget\NuGet.targets (92): The process cannot access the file 'C:\Users\buildguest\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config' because it is being used by another process.
This started happening right after a performance related TFS outage on 12/18/2014. Don't know how it could have changed anything, maybe just coincidence.
No changes to solutions, structure, packages or otherwise - just source changes checked in.
Can this be corrected?

You are likely still using the msbuild based NuGet package restore from prior to NuGet 2.7 and you are still likely using an old version of NuGet.exe with that as that
process checked a version of NuGet.exe in with it. This is no longer a recommend approach because there are certain NuGet packages that now include msbuild targets as part of them because MSBuild needs all of the refereced targets files on disk when
it starts it is not possible to add targets files as part of the NuGet restore.
My guess is the error you are now seeing is because we have moved to dual proc build machines and this a multiproc MSBuild with legacy old style msbuild hack package restore bug.
It is likely you can upgrade to a newer version of nuget.exe and check that version in with their solution and it will work around this issue.
There are detailed instructions on the NuGet.org site about the various ways to do package restore.

Nuget Package dlls not uploading to VS Online

I have a large project using multiple Nuget packages. It builds and works as expected on my local PC. I thought I would try VS Online and make use of the TFS capabilities so that my co-worker and I could manage the project better. However,
the project will not build in VS Online. Based upon the errors and after poking around I discovered that not all the Nuget packages were getting uploaded. However, some of the folder structure gets uploaded, but not all.
For example the AjaxControlToolkit.7.1213 has content, tools and lib subfolders on my local PC. My VS Online version doesn't have the lib folder, which is where the dll resides. This causes the error that
occurs multiple times for numerous packages.
What am I doing to cause this? I have turned on "Enable Nuget package restore" and updated all packages.
I posted a question concerning this in the wrong forum, you can see the error log here if
needed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Your iPhone's iOS must be same or newer than the one in backups. In your case it is older so you need to update your iPhone and then recover it with backup.

IPod classic corrupted and won't restore on Windows

So I have an 80Gb iPod classic. While I was transferring some files something went wrong with the USB connection and iTunes immediately froze and so did my iPod. So I reconnected my iPod and now it won't let me transfer any files because it keeps getting stuck. Then I tried to restore and got an error that I was unable to restore. I disconnected my iPod and it seems like it restored because the next thing I knew everything has been wiped out. But when I connected it to my PC a message appears that the iPod is corrupted and a windows prompt appears telling me to format the disk. So here's what I've done.
-formatted the iPod in FAT32
-connected the iPod, no 'iPod corrupted' message appears.
-tried to restore, but received the same error message, won't restore
-when iPod disconnected it went through the same cycle (iPod restoring-then iPod corrupted-iPod needs to be formatted)
-went to Apple service center, they restored it using a mac and everything went smoothly, song were able to be transferred without a glitch.
-however will not work on PC needs to be restored again
can someone help to shed some light? is there something wrong with the hard disk? If yes, then why can it be restored through mac but not windows?
what can i do to solve this problem?
thanx

I was sort of relieved to read that I am not the only one with freezing issues.
I have been to the apple store twice only to be told there is nothing wrong and of course my warranty has expired !! I have the Model A1136 EMC No. 2065 80gig classic ipod. My dell computer is only 2 weeks old and works fantastic, however, when I open itunes and my ipod and it freezes, so does my pc and I have to do a task manager to get out of itunes and there are times when I can't and have to reboot my pc.
Well it has been two weeks now of me trying all that I can to fix the issue and only thing I can see so far that it freezes up when its in the analyzing the gapless sound upon adding music from my folders, etc etc. So I tried to "uncheck" everything that had to do with the sound and it worked. Oh and by the way, try setting your ipod on disk mode when you are trying to restore the ipod. It works better that way. Don't know what is going on but I am so angry with myself for being so attached to this ipod There is nothing out there that compares to my ipod and it's amazing the prices of mp3 that even come close to 80 gigs.
Good luck to all and if I find anything else to share, I certainly will Don't hesitate to email me if someone finds out or has a patch or something to get this thing going properly again bye for now ,,,,,,,,

Nuget packages are not uninstalled properly in VS 2010

Hi,
I have created 3 Nuget packages. One package is dependency of other two Nuget packages. Once I install the 3 packages in my project it installed and working fine. If I uninstall the nuget from my VS2010 project it will throw the below messages.
Access to the path <packageslocation>\AssemlyName40\lib\net40\AssemblyName.dll is denied.
It uninstalled from the project correctly. But the packages dlls are not removed from the package installed location.
Note: This issue not occurred in VS2012,VS2013 projects.
If the assembly is presented in GAC location this error occurred in Visual Studio 2010. If not its not reproducing VS2010 also.
Thanks,

Hi Abbas,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this issue is to discuss:Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer
Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio Editor. As you said about the Nuget packages un-install issue, since Nuget packages is a third-party packages, it is out of support of Visual Studio General Questions forum.
To help you find the correct forum for this issue, I suggest you can ask the issue directly to
Nuget, it will better support this issue.
Thanks for your understanding.

My iPod generation 6 160gb will not sync. iTunes says corrupt, won't restore just errors out and then loops the same messages.

My iPod is corrupt according to iTunes, however it won't restore through iTunes either. I've tried to reformat the drive. Makes no difference. I've tried to reformat after choosing disk manager, and again the same result. The iPod takes forever to work through the reformatting process and I get the same message "Itunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod" and then my pc tells me to format the disk.
It's so frustrating, is there a fix to this? It seems like the iPod could still function, but I'm missing the way to get out of this loop, please help me!

Likely a hard drive fault, see the note that i wrote few years ago, hopefully it helps
If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
For old and other versions of iPod updater for window you can get here
http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
Intermediate Level
A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
For Window computer
Go to folder “My Computer”
Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
Now select “Format”
Eject your iPod and do a Reset
Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.

C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
Tips
a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2364921&#2364921
Advance Level
A. Diagnostic mode solution
If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
B. Format your iPod with a start disk
I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk
http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
http://www.ifixit.com/
Just in case that you are at the following situation
Your iPod warranty is expired
You don’t want to pay any service charges
You are prepared to buy a new one
You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
Last Resort Level
1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)
http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/index.cfm?page=Video/directory.html
2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.

Finally, I read a fair comments from dwb, regarding of slapping the back of the iPod multiple times
Quote “This has been discussed numerous times as a 'fix'. It does work, at least for a while. In fact I remember using the same basic trick to revive Seagate and Quantam drives back in the mid to late 1980's. Why these tiny hard drives go bad I don't know - could be the actuator gets stuck in place or misaligned. Could be the platter gets stuck or the motor gets stuck. 'Stiction' was a problem for drives back in the 80's. Unfortunately the fix can cause damage to the platter so we temporarily fix one problem by creating another.

My work issued iphone won't restore the backup. I get an error that my password is wrong. I tried variations of all recent passwords. Checked various threads and saw one that suggesting to use the "Change Password" feature under "Encrypt iPhone Backup" as a faster way to find your password. After a few wrong attempts I then successfully changed my backup password and wrote it down!!
Now when I tried to restore my backup with my shiny new password I get the same error that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone "my iphone" because the password was incorrect" The "Encrypt iPhone backup" option is checked and grayed out. I assume the fact its grayed out means its a policy set by my company. I cannot uncheck the "Encrypt iPhone Backup" option. My company IT helpdesk can't help me as they say they don't set a password or force its encryption. The phone has Mobile Iron 5.7.4 app installed as a corporate requirement.
Any ideas? I am using iOS 6.1.3 and I will not update it to iOS 7 since I cannot restore my backup. Learned this the hard way when it wouldn't restore after the iOS 5 to iOS 6 update. I have an iPhone 4s.
Thank you,

This is a problem. We also set a policy which requires users create a backup password. That way if they salvage their computer, someone that buys it at the Thrift store won't be able to access what might be company data. The problem is that the password is only required one time, when the initial backup is made, and it might be a year or more before you need to use it to do a restore. Here is an article which may help out...at least with some ideas on password ideas...http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5162
If you can't remember it, you can always transfer your content to your computer, music, apps, photo's etc, then setup the device as new and transfer the content back. This won't allow you to get various settings, and points on games, etc, but at least you will have the really really important stuff. If you are connected to an enterprise mail server, that will restore all of your mail, contacts and calendar.

"manage nuget packages for solution" is missing in the drop down for NuGet Package Manager

Hi,
I have VS2013 Ultimate on windows 7 PC and that Nuget Option does show in the dropdown. Today, I setup a vm in Azure, from image I select VS2013 Ultimate, just like the one on my PC. However, when I click on the Tools, Nuget, there is only 2
drop down option, "package manager console" and "package manager settings" are the only 2 available. How can I get the ""manage nuget packages for solution"?
I want to install the xamarin.forms extension and I need this.
thank you
Thank you

Hi laJasmine,
Based on your issue, generally, I know that there have two ways to see the "manage nuget packages for solution" option after we install the VS2013 Ultimate.
One way is that it is default that we can see the "manage nuget packages for solution" option by right click this Solution->Manage NuGet Packages for Solution option like the following screen shot.
Another way is that we can see the "manage nuget packages for solution" option by clicking the Tools->Library Package Manager-> manage nuget packages for solution like the following screen shot.
So please check if you can get the "manage nuget packages for solution" option from this above two way again.
If you still could not the "manage nuget packages for solution" option in this VS2013 Ultimate, to check if this issue is related to the VS2013 Ultimate set up file. I suggest you could try to copy this setup file and then install it on other machine
and then check if you still get the issue.
If you have any updated message about this issue, please tell me.

IPhone 5 won't take a charge & won't restore from backup

My iPhone 5 stopped taking a charge. So I updated to 7.whatever & backed it up. It still would take a charge so I went through recovery mode. That seemed to complete (I've done it twice now) However, the phone still won't take a charge and it won't restore from my backup. (Since the initial run through recovery mode it has never accepted the backup. It alway errors out saying the iPhone disconnected. It never disconnected physically and I've tried mutiple cables so which worn on my other iPhone so they are not the problem. If I plug the iPhone in it will cycle between on and off and never accept a charge or allow me to get through the backup process without "disconnecting" Any suggestions?

Hello GreenLantern17,
It sounds like you are unable to charge your phone and it keeps disconnecting when you have it plugged into your computer, even though you have tried mulitple cables. If you have not already, try charging the phone with the wall adapter that came with it. If it works there, into I recommend starting with the following USB port troubleshooting for your computer:
Remove any third-party battery packs or cases from the device and ensure that the USB cable is connected directly to the port on the device.
If your Lightning or 30-pin cable is connected to a keyboard, display or USB hub, try plugging it directly into a USB port on the computer instead.
Close any virtualization apps (such as Parallels or VMWare).
These apps may interfere with your computer's ability to communicate over USB if they aren't properly configured, or up to date. If this resolves the issue, contact the developer of the app to see if an update is available.
Restart your computer.
Restart your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch.
If you're using an accessory or third-party cable to connect your device, try using an Apple cable with the device instead.
Update to the latest version of iTunes if you have not already.
Disconnect other USB devices from your computer, except for your keyboard and mouse. Then, reconnect your iOS device. If the issue is resolved, reconnect the other USB devices one at a time. Make sure your iOS device is still recognized by the computer after adding back each device.
If one of these steps resolves the issue, but it comes back later, make sure you haven't changed how the device is connected. For example, check to see if you plugged the device into a specific accessory, or used a specific cable that reintroduced the issue.
