WILL NOT RUN - ASP.NET Core + Angular 2 template for Visual Studio

I have followed the posting at http://blog.stevensanderson.com/2016/10/04/angular2-template-for-visual-studio/ to start a new MVC Angular 2 application.

I already had VS2015 (pro) Update 3
I updated my .net core to version 1.0.1
I insured my Node.js was above version 4 ( I had 10 )
I tried to install the ASP.NET Core Template Pack extension from https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MadsKristensen.ASPNETCoreTemplatePack but the Download button on that page is broken so I got it from http://vsixgallery.com/extension/ae9d6285-3f2a-4cbe-9021-82eb4d8b8c74/
I started VS and went to Visual Studio’s File New Project menu, expand the Web category, and picked ASP.NET Core Angular 2 Starter Application (.NET Core)
I let the prjoect build and waited until the depencies finsihed restoring
I then tried to run the project - NO LUCK
Ctrl+F5 - nothing
F5 - nothing
The Start button on the tool bar just says "Start", not IIS or Chorme, or anthing like that. Pressing the "Start" button get the error "Unable to start debugging. The startup project cannot be launched"
Under VS's Debug Menu, both the "Start Debugging" and "Start without Debugging" options are disabled.

I also noticed that in the solution explorer there is an entry "References (Errors - see Error List ) --- there is no Error List...

Don't know what to do.

Does Visual Studio's "File -> New Project" menu offer you the option to create a "ASP.NET Core Web Application (.NET Core)" project? If not, I suspect the issue is that you also need to install the Visual Studio tools for .NET Core 1.0.1: https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#windowsvs2015

Please let me know whether or not this fixes it! I'll close this since I think that is likely to be the solution, but please reopen the issue if not.

Thank you for taking time to help me with this.

Yes, I believe I do have Visual Studio tools for .NET Core 1.0.1 installed. I sent several screen shots and the project created from the template to you in eMail. To bad I can't paste screen shots here. Please let me know if you did not receive the email reply,

Here is some text from command prompt results showing I have dot ent core 1.1:

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.14393]
(c) 2016 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>dotnet --version
1.0.0-preview2-003131

C:\WINDOWS\system32>node -v
v5.10.1

=========================

Thank you again for your help as I believe this template will be of enormous value to me as we have had no luck upgrading our Angular 2 beta 17 application to more recent versions of Angular 2.

The run/debug options become enabled if I changed the lin in the project.json file from :

  "dependencies": {
    "Microsoft.NETCore.App": {
      "version": "1.0.1",
      "type": "**platform**"
    },

===================

to:

  "dependencies": {
    "Microsoft.NETCore.App": {
      "version": "1.0.1",
      "type": "**default**"
    },

==========================
But then 40 errors in the project.json file pop up:

The most important is probably the one build error:

I do not see an option to reopen this closed issue, unless you wanted me to open a new issue?

All my email replies are getting bounce back – trying again without

Thank you for tanking time to help me with this.

Yes, I believe I do have Visual Studio tools for .NET Core 1.0.1
installed. I can share some screen shots here:

And here is the app I created with the template ( I called the project
OmniPotA2 ):

If I change type form “platform” to “default” the run options then appear,
but I get 40 errors from the project.json file :

I went ahead and zipped up the solution and included it --- I’m am sure it
is something very simple and maybe even trivial to you.

(The file was renamed from “OmniPotA2.zip” to “OmniPotA2.MYzip” )

Thank you again for your help as I believe this template will be of
enormous value to me as we have had no luck upgrading our Angular 2 beta
17 application to more recent versions of Angular 2.

Steve, the email I got from you said "Reply directly", but all my emails are getting bounced back.

I tried twice, then a third time without the zip file of the solution.

My direct email is pgorbas@yahoo.com is you want me to email the solution zip to you directly so you can see what the template is creating for me.

To clarify, installing the .NET Core SDK is not the same as installing Visual Studio Tools for .NET Core. Running dotnet --version only shows that you have the .NET Core SDK installed - it doesn't show that you have installed the Visual Studio tools.

Could you ensure you've installed DotNetCore.1.0.1-VS2015Tools.Preview2.0.3.exe? I don't know for sure that will fix the issue, but it's something you do need if you want VS to be able to launch your projects correctly.

Yes, I certainly have DotNetCore.1.0.1-VS2015Tools.Preview2.0.3.exe installed from the very first. If I try to use the link you sent, it just prompts me to download the same file I already have saved. If I try to run it, it just comes up with the repair or uninstall option.

@pgorbas

@pgorbas Have you installed vs 2017 RC ?

No I am not using VS 2017 RC yet, I didn't want to introduce new unknowns. I have VS2015 Pro.

I have tried using the template with several .Net Frame works ( selected when you create the project ). I have through 4.6.1 available, but I have also tried several others including 4.5.2 which you show in your tutorial. No matter which one I use to build the app with the template, I always get this error in the project.json file:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "Microsoft.NETCore.App": {
      "version": "1.0.1",
      "type": "platform"
    },

intellisense says that "type" must be either "default" or "build" -- I have tried both of those and I trade a single error about the type to a pile of errors complaining about DNC4.5.1 not being supported. ( this error regardless which .net framework selected at project creation ( 4.6.1, 4.5.2 or even 4.5.1 )

@pgorbas

Same issue here.
I've made sure all the prerequisites above are installed and as @pgorbas stated, when trying to reinstall the tools the option given is either repair/uninstall meaning it's there.
Here's what the IDE looks like. Brand new project from the "ASP.NET Core Angular 2 Starter Application (.NET Core)" - click to enlarge:

I've found a solution here.

HTH.
