Azure cspack.exe throws System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingException

Question

I have installed Azure SDK 2.5. When I run command:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\.NET SDK\v2.5\bin\cspack.exe" .\ServiceDefinition.csdef "/out:Package.cspkg"

I got an exception:

Unhandled Exception: System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingException: Object '/8ba37d11_3239_4c7c_9f1a_aa967b1dc5e9/eocq0iwbskmwhdjkfth7xtqy_4.rem' has been disconnected or does not exist at the server.

At the same time this package is built successfully on other machines.

Does anybody face with this issue?

This was a bug that was introduced in SDK 2.5 for a long running CSPack process. There is a fix for this in the upcoming 2.6 release.

Yes, Microsoft Support said they expects stability improvements for CsPack.exe in SDK 2.6. So, I am waiting for SDK 2.6 release. – Roman Oleynik Mar 31 '15 at 05:46

In our case it happens only on one machine (Win Server 2008R2) that we are using for automatic deployment to our testing environment, we are fine with using the CSPack workaround.

The workaround consists of two steps:

MSBuild which fails, however it fails in last step of creating the package, so all the files that should be packed to the package are in folder "AzureProject\obj\Release\WebRoleName".

Run CSPack manually:

$releaseWebAppPath = "$tempPath\AzureProject\obj\Release\WebRoleName"
& $cspackPath "$slnRootPath\AzureProject\ServiceDefinition.csdef" /role:"WebRoleName;$releaseWebAppPath" /sitePhysicalDirectories:"WebRoleName;Web;$releaseWebAppPath" /out:"$packagePath"

This creates a package that you should be able to deploy.

As you can see from description of the topic I used CSPack. The issue is reproducible for CSPack as well as for MSBuild. — Roman Oleynik, Jul 20 '15 at 13:33
