Build error of ASP.NET Core - “…current settings, version 2.1.0-preview3-26411-06 would be used instead”

Question

I\'ve created a sample project using dotnet, but I get the following error when building the project:

error : The project was restored using Mic

Answer 1

I experienced the same:

The project was restored using Microsoft.NETCore.App version 2.1.2, but with current settings, version 2.1.0 would be used instead.

Removing the explicitly set --self-contained false from the dotnet publish command seemed to do the trick for us. It defaults to the same, so why it makes a difference, I have no idea.

This was with SDK version 2.1.400.
