✅ New to .NET, when creating a new ASP.NET Core Web API project no template generates.

I have the templates component installed.

hm.. if you do

dotnet --info

dotnet --info

in a terminal, what is the output?

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:04 PM

.NET Core SDKs installed:                                                                                                 No SDKs were found.

.NET Core SDKs installed:                                                                                                 No SDKs were found.

Which is weird because I have installed .NET 6.0 SDK through the installer.

Can you show the full output?

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:09 PM

I think I know what it is, but I need the entire thing to verify

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:09 PM

also, why 6.0 when 7.0 has been out for a year?

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:11 PM

Here you go, thanks for this, I've only ever used VS code and I feel like a complete noob hahaa

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:12 PM

hm ok I think I know what it is

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:12 PM

I also only know the linux terminal haha

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:12 PM

do you know how to open the "edit system variables" in windows?

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:12 PM

Yeah I've got it open

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:12 PM

awesome. go to "system variables" and click "edit" on your PathPath

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:13 PM

you'll get a big list

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:13 PM

we need to look for C:\Program files\dotnet\C:\Program files\dotnet\ and C:\Program files (x86)\dotnet\C:\Program files (x86)\dotnet\

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:13 PM

I see it

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:13 PM

let me know if you find one or both of these, and if both, in what order they are (top to bottom)

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

x86 appears above in the list

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

swap order?

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

so you have both?

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

yes

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

YeaH

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

make the non-x86 one go above the other

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

Just like this?

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:14 PM

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:15 PM

yep!

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:15 PM

Great I'll save and run the command

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:15 PM

save, close all open terminals

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:15 PM

including vs code etc

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:16 PM

Great they're showing up now

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:16 PM

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:16 PM

there ya go

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:16 PM

now it should all work

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:16 PM

including creating projects via vs

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:16 PM

Thank you! Gonna try generate a template now

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:17 PM

so to summarize, the problem here was that you had the x86 runtime installed before installing the x64 sdk

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:18 PM

these have different dotnet.exedotnet.exes and different path entries

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:18 PM

and the x86 runtime was intercepting the calls meant for the x64 sdk

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:18 PM

so we re-ordered it to prefer the x64 one and now it works

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:23 PM

The template has appeared

Jack9405OP•8/31/23, 12:23 PM

Thanks a lot!

Pobiega•8/31/23, 12:24 PM

then you can safely $close this

PPobiega then you can safely $close this
