File system watcher crash about foundation HOT 12 CLOSED

I can confirm that downgrading to netcoreapp1.1 solves this issue. :-(

from foundation.

@JeremyKuhne Is this known issue?

from foundation.

We would need to know what the strings are to figure out what is going on. Knowing what is coming out of NotifyRenameEventArgs (name and oldName) and what is going into GetFullPath would narrow it down. If the string is turning into garbage inside Microsoft.Extensions we'll need to get this on ASP.NET's plate. Otherwise we can put this in CoreFX.

The exception itself doesn't reveal it. I would start by updating it so that next time it crashes you'll have more info as to what might have gone wrong.
You can try and use my project if you want to try and simulate the issue, but the project setup is not so easy.
This is the relevant repository snapshot as I'm planning to check-in the downgrade to 1.1 later tonight.

Let me know if you need anything from me.

@ianhays, do you see any changes that might impact this? I'm not finding anything.

Without a string, the best place to start may be https://github.com/aspnet/FileSystem as they're closer to your scenario.

Nothing off the top of my head, no. FSW didn't get very many fixes in 2.0.

@HarelM can you attach a debugger and get us the string that is causing the issue?

@Eilon as FYI

from foundation.

Can you send a more explicit instructions how to get the string? The debugger is attached but the symbols are not loaded properly and I'm not entirely sure how to get that working...

from foundation.

Any update on this? I really want to upgrade to 2.0 but this is a blocker...

from foundation.

@JeremyKuhne can you get this issue moved over to dotnet/corefx and help @HarelM with more info on how to get you more details?

from foundation.

I opened an issue on aspnet/FileSystem as I suggested earlier. There have been no changes in System.IO that look related. They are on top of the stack and are better equipped to investigate further.

aspnet/FileSystem#299

from foundation.

Ok, I'm going to close this one here so the conversation can focus on the issue in aspnet's repo.
