dotnet format no longer works

[damienbod]

I have be using dotnet format and think this is great. After installing .NET SDK 6.0.2 and also .NET 6.0.3 , the tool no longer works. Wondering if this will get fixed, or if this is no longer supported?

>dotnet format

I have the same problem after update

Is this on an ASP.Net Core project? In that case, #1519 describes a similar issue.
#1433 (comment) proposes a workaround (using the dotnet-format global tool instead of the one shipped with the SDK) that you might want to try.

@ranma42 Thanks for the feedback, tried this and this does not solve the issue. Thanks

project: ASP.NET Core 6.0.3

same issue today

The dotnet runtime version is '6.0.3'.
  The dotnet CLI version is '6.0.201'.

dotnet format --verify-no-changes --verbosity diag ./mySolution.sln

There is a fix coming in the next .NET 6 SDK release. In the meantime you can install dotnet-format as a global tool to work around this issue (See #1519 (comment)). Closing this issue as duplicate of #1519
