When using ABP Suite to try to create a MAUI project, it seems everything with LeptonX won't compile at all, giving you lots of errors like.
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error MSB3027 Could not copy "C:\Users....nuget\packages\volo.abp.aspnetcore.components.web.leptonxtheme\2.1.0\staticwebassets\side-menu\libs\bootstrap-datepicker\css\bootstrap-datepicker3.standalone.min.css" to "M:\Projects\ASP.NET\ABP\src\BlazorHybrid4\aspnet-core\src\BlazorHybrid4.MauiBlazor\obj\Debug\net7.0-android\assets\wwwroot_content\Volo.Abp.AspNetCore.Components.Web.LeptonXTheme\side-menu\libs\bootstrap-datepicker\css\bootstrap-datepicker3.standalone.min.css". Exceeded retry count of 10. Failed. BlazorHybrid4.MauiBlazor C:\Program Files\dotnet\packs\Microsoft.Android.Sdk.Windows\33.0.26\tools\Xamarin.Android.Common.targets 895
If you switch to creating a similar project with just plain Lepton instead, the generated solution will compile and somewhat work, but UI seems really broken, like it can't access CSS files etc.
Haven't used ABP in a few month and at least then, support for MAUI was best described as Alpha / experimental, is this still the case?
I know that MAUI overall seems to be somewhat of an unfinished product, but this seems to be related more to ABP. Can't be sure though as MAUI in itself is kind of pre release.
BTW, this form seems to be broken in responsive mode, and the submit button isn't even displayed in a somewhat narrow web browser. Expand it to full screen and it will show up.
It seems ABP Suite 6.0 rc4 (and at least RC3 as well) are locking some files after generation, which leads to error messages when trying to build and not all of them are obvious that it is ABP Suite that is the reason for it, while some contain that information if you looks closely, like "XXXXX Exceeded retry count of 10. Failed. The file is locked by: "Volo.Abp.Suite (36088)"
Killing/restarting the ABP Suite process makes the error go away so it is no doubt about what is causing this, so as long as you know why this is, you can easily work around the problem.
As I understand it, the MAUI mobile application generated by ABP Suite seem to use Preferences instead of SecureStorage for storing JWT tokens which AFAIK isn't the recommended way of doing it as it is not as secure as SecureStorage. There is even a community post about this
https://community.abp.io/posts/using-abp-client-proxies-in-maui-with-openid-connect-em7x1s8k
private async Task SetTokenCacheAsync(string accessToken, string refreshToken)
{
await _storage.SetAsync(IssueTrackrConsts.OidcConsts.AccessTokenKeyName, accessToken);
await _storage.SetAsync(IssueTrackrConsts.OidcConsts.RefreshTokenKeyName, refreshToken);
}
private async Task ClearTokenCacheAsync()
{
await _storage.RemoveAsync(IssueTrackrConsts.OidcConsts.AccessTokenKeyName);
await _storage.RemoveAsync(IssueTrackrConsts.OidcConsts.RefreshTokenKeyName);
}
public class DefaultStorage : IStorage, ITransientDependency
{
public Task<string> GetAsync(string key)
{
return Task.FromResult(Preferences.Get(key, string.Empty));
}
public Task SetAsync(string key, string value)
{
Preferences.Set(key, value);
return Task.CompletedTask;
}
public Task RemoveAsync(string key)
{
Preferences.Remove(key);
return Task.CompletedTask;
}
}
I tried to update to ABP Suite matching the latest RC 6.0.0 RC4 but that did not seem to exist (and instead installed some Preview 7 from July even though I specified the version in the CLI command). So I did a "abp suite remove" and also deleted the directory, and then did a "abp suite install --version 6.0.0-rc.3". Now I seem to have a mismatch of versions, which I would assume is rather the ABP Suite RC3 having some incorrect INF
abp suite install --version 6.0.0-rc.3 [18:36:35 INF] ABP CLI (https://abp.io) [18:36:36 INF] Version 6.0.0-rc.4 (Prerelease) [18:36:36 INF] Installing ABP Suite v6.0.0-rc.3... You can invoke the tool using the following command: abp-suite Tool 'volo.abp.suite' (version '6.0.0-rc.3') was successfully installed.
abp suite [18:37:01 INF] ABP CLI (https://abp.io) [18:37:01 INF] Version 6.0.0-rc.4 (Prerelease) Starting Suite v6.0.0-rc.3 ... Opening http://localhost:3000
What is the ABP Suite to be used with RC4 and is there a ABP Suite RC4 as well?
Not sure if there is a better way to submit suggestions for improvements, as GitHub Issues are only for the non commercial version? Don't want a suggestion to lower our number of support tickets.
ABPSuite by default creates DTOs with different DTOs for each AGUD/CRUD operation. While this might be the most fancy solution, in many cases, just having one simple DTO for all operations is sufficient and also much easier to maintain for simple projects.
Suggestion, consider implementing an option in ABP Suite to use one simple DTO for all AGUD/ CRUD operations instead of separate ones.

Hi,

It seems like ABP Suite is currently broken with Blazor Server and client. We have a new project that was supposed to have started up yesterday but since we can't even create and run a fresh project in ABP Suite currently, it is still at a standstill. We would like some information about the status on this and possible solutions / work arounds. Thanks.
Initial post fron the bug thread for 4.4.4 but not sure if anyone is reading that as there are no replies there yet.
ABP Framework version: v4.4.4 UI type: Blazor Server DB provider: EF Core Tiered (MVC) or Identity Server Separated (Angular): no
After upgrading to ABP 4.4.4 we can no longer create working projects in ABP Suite (have no tried other methods). The DBMigrator runs fine on a newly created project (default options, .net 5, no preview) but at runtime we get
[17:46:09 INF] Authorization failed. These requirements were not met: PermissionRequirement: AbpAccount.SettingManagement
[17:46:10 WRN] Unhandled exception rendering component: Undefined permission: Audit Volo.Abp.AbpException: Undefined permission: Audit
and in the browser:
blazor.server.js?_v=637706942980000000:21 [2021-11-10T16:46:09.985Z] Error: There was an unhandled exception on the current circuit, so this circuit will be terminated. For more details turn on detailed exceptions by setting 'DetailedErrors: true' in 'appSettings.Development.json' or set 'CircuitOptions.DetailedErrors'.
We have also since last time we tried using ABP Suite upgraded from VS2022 Preview to Current, but I don't think that is the cause of the problem here. Could possibly be related to .net updates also.
There is additional information in the 4.4.4 bug thread linked above.
Where can I find a proper guide on how to debug the ABP Framework? For sake of argument, let's say that we are following the Blazer Server tutorial at https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Tutorials/Part-1?UI=BlazorServer&DB=EF and would like to debug for example the call to CreateEntityAsync?
Are we supposed to replace the packages with source code? If so, how is it supposed to be done in a effective way, I can't see any options in ABP Suite for it, just that some modules can be installed as source code rather than modules?
A general guide "How do debug your ABP application" would be nice.
Thanks.
I am trying to understand the practical differences between using ABPHelper(GUI) and ABPSuite? Both seem to do basically the same thing and both also seem to be in active maintanance. What advantages/disadvantages does each of them have over the other? Thanks.
Hi,
Have searched for this but not found any good answer. Can someone please explain to me the reasoning for deciding to use Redis in ABP and be dependent on it for the "public website" features? Having researched it, my understanding is that in order to use it, you have to install the Linux subsystem and then a linux distro and then finally Redis. If that is the case, I would much rather just find some other solution for my needs for a public website/CMS that does not require all these extra steps and maintaining something I don't feel familiar with which might also have some additional concerns regarding stability, performance, security etc. in a production environment.
I know that .net core is supposed to be multi platform these days but would imagine that it is still mainly "Microsoft developers" using it and that it is also mostly hosted in Windows enviroments so having to go the extra mile here seems strange to me.
Obviously there are lots of smart people involved in the ABP project, so perhaps I am missing something here that would make me understand the reasoning here and why it is a better solution than the alternatives :)
Thanks.
