• I have written a descriptive issue title

GitVersion package

AzureDevops task

What are you seeing?

I am trying to set up gitversion in an ADO Server pipeline. I installed the gittools from the marketplace and I am getting the following error when I run the build.

##[error]A supported task execution handler was not found. The task does not carry an implementation that is compatible with your current operating system 'Windows(X64)'. Contact the task author for more details.

What is expected?

Setup of a version of gitversion that runs on x64

Steps to Reproduce

I have setup git version in my build script as shown below.

jobs:

• job: Build
  displayName: Build
  continueOnError: false
  workspace:
  clean: all
  steps:

  • checkout: self
    fetchDepth: 0

  • task: gitversion/setup@3
    displayName: Install GitVersion
    inputs:
    versionSpec: '5.12.0'

  • task: gitversion/execute@3
    displayName: Determine Version
    inputs:
    updateAssemblyInfo: true

Output log or link to your CI build (if appropriate).

Same issue on self hosted windows agent. Works on self hosted ubuntu agent and MS hosted agents

[willibrandon]

I just bumped into this issue myself.

[shieldsjared]

Also running into this. A quick google didnt lead me to a work around either. :/

@rodeoboy @dreteddy @willibrandon @shieldsjared that could be because of the agent version. We currently support

actions/dist/azure/updateTasks.mjs

Line 32 in 13ffcf7

minimumAgentVersion: "3.224.0",

[arturcic]

Can you tell me which version of the agents you have?

[rodeoboy]

3.225.2
Is there any value in installing the gitversion dotnet tool directly to the self hosted build agent?

The tasks/actions are just opinionated wrappers of the tools. You can run the tools directly in your pipeline/workflow

[shieldsjared]

Can you tell me which version of the agents you have?

@arturcic - I've also got version 3.225.2.

It seems to be an issue with the agent, and probably the version of nodejs microsoft/powerplatform-build-tools#491 (comment)

[arturcic]

Can you check which version of nodejs you have? As the requirements are https://github.com/GitTools/actions/blob/main/dist%2Fazure%2Fgitversion%2Fsetup%2Ftask.json#L17

[shieldsjared]

@arturcic -

We've got build agent version 3.225.2 and NodeJS version 20.17.0. We initially had v16 (whoops!) but after upgrading to 20, we're still getting the issue.

After reviewing the extension code that you pointed out, it appears that this issue is something deeper than the gittools extension and likely something to do w/ the overall AzDO extension framework, so I'll keep at it. Appreciate the pointers!

[arturcic]

@shieldsjared thanks for the updates, I will close this issue then as it's not related to gittools/actions
