Known Issues

[ptasev]

The experience of navigating new releases is poor. I have not been able to figure out how to go from the release notes document to see what changes have been made for each repo.

Also, where do I go to find out what the difference is between the SDK versions? There's 103 and 202 now and no matter how many links I follow through these release documents I still haven't been able to figure out the difference.

Edit: I did find the links to the issues fixed in each repo on the blog. It's confusing why this isn't in the release document.

When running the command listed in the announcement post (https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/march-2024-updates/):

winget install dotnet-sdk-8

It currently still downloads 8.0.200.

[devlead]

And, last night 8.0.203 was released, but several packages and containers are still missing i.e. sdk:8.0.203-alpine3.18

[cmenzi]

Again. The package is not available here:

• https://packages.microsoft.com/ubuntu/22.04/prod/pool/main/d/dotnet-sdk-8.0/
• https://packages.microsoft.com/ubuntu/22.04/prod/dists/jammy/main/binary-amd64/Packages
  apt-get install -yq dotnet-sdk-8.0=8.0.203-1 fails

[hilari0n]

Could anyone point me to where can I find the differences between SDK versions 8.0.202 and 8.0.203?

A user of ours is having issues when 8.0.3 is installed. When rolling back to 8.0.2, the application works as intended. The app crashes with this error message:

CoreCLR Version: 8.0.324.11423
.NET Version: 8.0.3
Description: The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime at IP 0x00007FFD5906C5E4 (0x00007FFD58EE0000) with exit code 0x80131506.

Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

For me, it is now (today) working. I had the same issue for one week, but now i can update.
