Home: "Package restore failed. Rolling back package changes..." appears in the error list

This error appears in the error list and it's frustrating that I can't get rid of it until after I build again.

Having this issue for EntityFramework VS2017, just stumbled over this thread through Google. Is there a workaround for this?

Could we use an infobar instead?

rchande on 17 Jul 2015

We'll take a look at how this could be improved. As for the infobar, I'm not sure that would be noticeable enough, and the user does need to know when the install failed.

@rchande I just closed the bugs that asks for removing the error. I think it should not be removed. We are tracking elsewhere improving the error messages.

@RanjiniM can you please verify we show a more useful message here?

Clearing out the milestone. We can't remove the error messages from error list yet until we find another way to surface those. In error cases the messages are explanatory.

I'm having same problem with installation of Nuget Packages:
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer
EntityFrameworkCore SQL Server Install errors.txt

Trying to install either from the console or from the user interface in VS 2015. Error output is attached since it is quite extensive.

ok, tried with Package Manager Console, and got

"install-package : One or more packages are incompatible with .NETCoreApp,Version=v1.1."

well, atleast I have a ballpark

Hello guys, I got the issue when I tried adding "Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework" to a .NET Standard Class Library Project. But when I added it to a .NET Framework Class Library Project it worked successfully without a problem.

@sameerfairgoogl how did you install it ?

Hello guys,
If you have problem with an entityframework package just try to install latest stable version from Nuget. Prerelease versions may cause trouble.

nhtbtmz on 11 Jul 2017

@m-henderson installed the nuget package for it, most likely this one if I remember correctly https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore

If you're using .NET Standard, try installing the Microsoft.NETCore.Portable.Compatibility package, and/or adding the PackageTargetFallback element to your _csproj_ file, example:

<PropertyGroup>
  <TargetFramework>netstandard1.4</TargetFramework>
  <PackageTargetFallback>$(PackageTargetFallback);portable-win+net45+wp8+win81+wpa8</PackageTargetFallback>
</PropertyGroup>

I have a problem when install Microsoft.Azure.NotificationHubs. How can I fix it

So the summary is that we get this message when installing previous .net packages on .net Core projects, and this is a matter of incompatibility.
If your package has a corresponding one in .net Core, then you're lucky. Go for it!

Yes

I had this issue, but When I cleared My Nuget Packages Cache, it resolved this issue. On Visualstudio, Go to Tools -> Options -> Nuget -> and clear your cache.
