Not being able to build in Release mode after upgrading to Uno 5.2

[WenHong-Lau]

I've recently updated the Uno Platform extension to ensure compatibility with the latest project templates and Uno 5.2. I ran uno-check to verify everything was up to date before creating a project using the "Uno Platform App" template.

However, upon attempting to build the project, I consistently encounter the following error:

The "GenerateAppManifestFromAppx" task failed unexpectedly.

Occasionally, I also face another issue stating:

Failed linking file resources.

I have attached the zipped solution along with the binlog
UnoApp1.zip

Thanks for the report. Can you provide the environment and command line you're using to make your build?

@jeromelaban, Indeed. To be honest, I didn't know that.
I'm not specifying this particular environment variable.
What could you suggest me in this case?
I've tried to change the command:

msbuild /r /t:Publish /p:Configuration=Release /p:RuntimeIdentifier=win-x86 /p:Platform=x86 /p:TargetFramework=net8.0-windows10.0.19041 /bl

But result is the same.
I've also tried to remove the nuget folder before execution of this command.

No, this is not related to the target platform. In your context, msbuild is running in 32bits mode, it could be because of the surrounding shell. This is quite uncommon, though.

@limeniye I missed this in your video, but you're using powershell, and the binlog shows that there's an environment variable called msbuild, which is using an incorrect path (it's supposed to end with amd64). This means that msbuild is running in 32bits mode and we're not supporting that scenario, we'll be updating our tooling to flag that scenario.

@jeromelaban, thanks.
Now I understood you.
I found another shell on my PC:

And now it works well!

Great, thanks for the update!
