Bitrise Build Issue Report template

Description of the issue

When I try to build any of our support libraries using the current stable Xamarin configuration. Our projects are failing due to the following issue. If I switch to the Apha or Beta branches I am not seeing this. Running the same builds locally also does not result in this behavior

Could not find dependent files. Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Reflection.Metadata, Version=1.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a’ or one of its dependencies.

Environment:

If on Bitrise.io: which stack? If not on Bitrise.io: on what operating system? (Plus any other information you can share)
Xamarin Stable

Which build Step causes the issue and which version of the step?
custom script

Reproducibility

  • Does a “Rebuild” help? (You can trigger a rebuild from the Build’s page, by clicking the “Rebuild” button in the top right corner of a finished build) : NO
  • Does a rebuild without caches help? (You can remove the Cache:Pull and Cache:Push steps temporarily to not to use the cache, or you can delete all the caches on the Settings tab of the app. : NO
  • If you have multiple different build configurations (workflows), does the issue affect all/more than one? : YES
  • If it’s an issue which happens sporadically, what’s the frequency? (e.g. Once a day ; about x% of the builds) :
  • Does upgrading the build Step to the latest version help? : NO
  • When did the issue start? :
    04/01/2017

Linux/Android stack builds

Can it be reproduced by running the build locally, after doing a new git clone of the repository into the /tmp directory and running the build from there with the Bitrise CLI ( https://www.bitrise.io/cli )? If no, can it be reproduced with Docker (using the same docker images / environment we use on bitrise.io)? Related guide: http://devcenter.bitrise.io/docker/run-your-build-locally-in-docker/ .

Other stacks

Can it be reproduced by running the build locally with our CLI ( https://www.bitrise.io/cli ), after doing a new git clone of the repository into the /tmp directory and running the build from there with the Bitrise CLI ( https://www.bitrise.io/cli )?

Build log

Please attach the build log (you can download the build log from the build’s page, once the build is finished, using the “Download log” button - floating at the bottom right corner of the log viewer), or if you can’t attach the whole log then send the full log through a private channel (e.g. email - https://www.bitrise.io/contact ), with a link to the related GitHub issue.

Hey @michael.stonis! :wave:t2:

This seems like there is a referencing issue in the project, could you please check if the files reported in the build log is failed is referenced properly?

This discussion might help:

The actual situation that I can imagine is that different versions of Xamarin studio handles un-referenced libraries differently.

Hope this helps!
