Problem adding a connector to a feed - Mirrored MyGet

[Guest]

Hello,

I have setup a feed using MyGet, the online Nuget as a service, and I would like to mirror this feed within my ProGet Server. I have added a new feed within ProGet, and I have added a connector, pointing at the MyGet feed. I don't get any errors when I hit save, but when I try to access the feed using:

http://localhost/feeds/MirroredMyGetFeed

I get the following warning:

"There was an error with one or more of your connectors: An item with the same key has already been added."

Can you please help me explain what might be going on here?

Thanks

Gary

If you can send us the Url to your feed (support at inedo dot com), we could take a look; it's difficult to know if the error is coming from the feed source (MyGet), or in our aggregation.

Thanks Gary, we were able to figure out root cause.

NuGet feeds use the "title" element for a package id, and the "id" element for the package url.

MyGet feeds also do this, but include a metadata property called "id" for the package. This was a recent change.

Our feed aggregator takes the "title" attribute and assigns it to package id. Since the MyGet feeds also have a metadata property called "id", we get this error.

Since the NuGet specification is implicitly defined, no one actually knows how this is supposed to behave.

We'll add yet another work-around to cover this NuGet quirk in future maintenance release of ProGet... but hopefully MyGet can also address this by removing the "id" metadata property.

ProGet 2.1.2 has been released, which addresses this bug.

Hey,

This is great news!

Thanks for getting this sorted out so quickly!
