Azure-pipelines-tasks: VstsTaskSdk missing in AzureWebPowerShellDeployment Task

[thomasmktong]

Hi, when I start a deployment task of Azure App Service: Classic today, I found the following problem

2017-09-21T00:06:52.6276856Z ##[error]File not found: 'C:\VSTS-Agent-2.104.0\_work\_tasks\AzureWebPowerShellDeployment_dcbef2c9-e4f4-4929-82b2-ea7fc9166109\1.0.46\ps_modules\VstsTaskSdk\VstsTaskSdk.psd1'

After some investigation, it seems to me that my VSTS agent has downloaded a new version of AzureWebPowerShellDeployment (1.0.46) few hours ago, Comparing the folder structure between the latest version and older version, seems it used to have a VstsTaskSdk folder under ps_modules, but now the whole folder and its scripts inside are missing.

Please can we get a fix for this Microsoft - we are using VSO and this is happening since yesterday using Hosted agents. Why did you even mess with it in the first place? It is deprecated so leave it alone.

hi @kinoro , we are hotfixing this. I will update here once that is done. Meanwhile, can you please tell me your account name.

Hi,

Is there any workaround available while you work in the hotfix?

Thanks.

[thomasmktong]

@chadidbarnero , if you use private pipeline, you can copy the whole VstsTaskSdk folder from old version to new version. Probably @arjgupta can help if you use hosted pipeline?

[chadidbarnero]

thanks @thomasmktong. Unfortunately I only have hosted pipelines...

Hi @thomasmktong , @kinoro , @chadidbarnero we have hotfixed the task. Can you please confirm if you are unblocked. The newer version is 1.0.47

[thomasmktong]

@arjgupta , I confirm that my build agent has picked up the new version and deployment can be done successfully. Many thanks.

[chadidbarnero]

It is working now. thanks.
