My company uses ThinkGeo in one of its API projects and I have been trying to get my local dev environment to run it in order to fix an issue within the API. I am on Linux Ubuntu and am hitting issues trying to install and run ThinkGeo Product Center.
The first issue came trying to use the CLI13 ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI.dll I get the following error…
Command Used: "dotnet ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI.dll /startevaluation /username:myUser /password:myPass /id:f4d1f27e-761e-4ada-82d7-53e7b20d2c2e"
Error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
I have been able to get products returned when I use dotnet ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI.dll /getproductids but /startevaluation does not seem to work.
I had hoped that this issue was maybe fixed with CLI14 but when I download CLI14 from your website it is just a .exe without any .dll or anything like a runtimeconfig.json file. I tried to run ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI14.exe as it is and got the following error…
Command Used: "dotnet ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI14.exe /startevaluation /username:myUser /password:myPass /id:f4d1f27e-761e-4ada-82d7-53e7b20d2c2e"
Error: "A fatal error was encountered. The library 'libhostpolicy.so' required to execute the application was not found in 'ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI14/'. Failed to run as a self-contained app. The application was run as a self-contained app because 'ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI14.runtimeconfig.json' was not found. If this should be a framework-dependent app, add the 'ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI14.runtimeconfig.json' file and specify the appropriate framework."
I tried to copy ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI13/ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI.runtimeconfig.json and create my own ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI14.runtimeconfig.json but was unsuccessful.
Error: "Unhandled exception. System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'ThinkGeo.ProductCenter.CLI14.exe'. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest."
Am I missing something here or doing something wrong? I couldn’t find much in the way of Linux support on the forums here.
