Hi

I run nuget restore before each of my builds which pulls packages down from nuget and out private myget feed.

This morning all of my builds are failing with a nuget operation timeout

If i test the same process on my machine in the office all works just fine.

Any ideas ?

Regards

Jonathan

   hi
   I'm just trying out appVeyor and getting the same
   We have a private nuget feed, so at first thebuild just failed
   then I added the feed creds, and the source (via settings > install > ps) and nuget restore via build > before build
   It seems to get through the restore, but then hangs
   no detail from teh console, but I imagine its the nuget restore, prompting for creds?
   all works locally and on a team city server

   Any ideas of how to get any more info?

   Yep, most probably it asks for credentials.

   What commands have you used to add custom source with credentials? We have some recommendations here: http://www.appveyor.com/docs/nuget#restore-private-feed

   yep - found and followed them, so I have:
   nuget sources add -Name MyAccountFeed -Source https://www.myget.org/F/MyFeedUrl -UserName %nuget_user% -Password %nuget_password%

   just to add, with that, if I add "nuget restore" as a powershell before build step, it just hangs

   If I dont have that setup, it fails the build when trying to package restore. we have this setup in a nuget.targets file:
   C:\projects\Project.nuget\nuget.targets(43,9): error MSB3073: The command ""C:\projects\Project.nuget\nuget.exe" install "C:\projects\Project\MyProject\packages.config" -source "https://nuget.org/api/v2/;https://www.myget.org/f/myfeed" -o "C:\projects\Project\packages"" exited with code 1. [C:\projects\Project\MyProject.csproj]

   at least for a migration period, we'll need to keep our packages on myget, so any help would be great

   Hi Steve,

   Take a look at this thread: http://help.appveyor.com/discussions/problems/381-install-hangs

   This is how-to from a customer who managed to solve the issue with credentials. Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

   Hi - took a look and with nuget verbose figured it out
   I had added the feed with:
   nuget sources add -Name MyFeedName with the name of the feed matching what we have in our nuget.targets
   changing it to use the feed url as the name as well solved it:

   nuget sources add -Name https://www.myget.org/F/myPrivateFeed

   all working now - win!

   Great, thanks for the update! It's worth adding to "NuGet" article in our docs. I'm going to re-visit all recent reports related to NuGet to collect gotchas.
