Unable to pack a Nuget Package on VSTS Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'NuGet.Frameworks.NuGetFramework'

Question

On running \'pack\' I am getting the following error...

2017-07-05T10:37:09.7762333Z ##[section]Starting: NuGet pack
2017-07-05T10:37:09.7762333Z ===========         


        

Answer 1

This seems to be an issue using the Nuget pack item built in to VSTS. I swapped it out for a Command Line element to call dotnet pack instead and it now works.
