I downloaded nopCommerce to evaluate for a client project. I'm running Visual Studio 2017 15.7.4.
I'm a very experienced WebForms developer but new to MVC. So I'm working through tutorials to familiarize myself with NOP.
So I'm using this tutorial to figure out how to add a new page.
http://www.strivingprogrammers.com/Steps-to-add-a-new-custom-page-in-nopCommerce-3-1-MVC-Version
I go to add a new controller using the "MVC Controller - Empty" option in the Add Scaffold dialog box. I then provide a new name for the controller - "TestController".
Visual Studio then shows a progress dialog box that reads
Scaffolding... Installing NuGetPackages. This make take a few moments. Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.BrowserLink.
This goes away and then another dialog pops up -
There was an error running the selected code generator: "Package restore failed. Rolling back package changes for 'Nop.Web'.
What does this mean?
I can compile and run NOP on my local machine. But clearly something else is going on if I can't add a new controller/page to the solution.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
