Compiler error while scaffolding an MVC controller #258

Closed

Description

I get this VS popup sporadically when trying to scaffold a new controller:

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Error

There was an error running the selected code generator:

'Project WebApplication6 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0) will be compiled because project is not safe for incremental compilation. Use --build-profile flag for more information.
Compiling WebApplication6 for .NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0
Running with configuration from C:\temp\WebApplication6\src\WebApplication6\bundleconfig.json
Processing wwwroot/css/site.min.css
  Bundled
  Minified

Compilation failed.
    0 Warning(s)
    1 Error(s)
Time elapsed 00:00:05.9348301'
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

Repro:

  • Right-click on Controllers and Add -> Controller
  • Select MVC Controller - Empty
  • Set the controller name and click Add

Sometimes you get the above error and when pressing OK it goes back to the controller name window. Still not sure what triggers the error.
