Will there by any VM images with .NET Framework 4.8 available?
We can’t download symbol files for .net core 3.1.12 use the following command:
dotnet symbol –symbols /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/3.1.12/libclrjit.so
The server says HttpSymbolStore: 404 Not Found ‘http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols/.debug%2Felf-buildid-sym-6dd9daba56b8e42ee0798d70e03043546ec01531%2F.debug’ .
The above command works in 3.1.11.
Is there any changes since 3.1.12?
.net framework does not asked to reboot, so i thanks to the developer team
,
It would be really amazing if you could make .NET Framework updates to not require a reboot on every update, just like .NET 5/Core updates. This seems like a small issue but with Windows 10 forcing a reboot after some time, we having issues with machines meant to be 24/7 available.<
Yes, I agree on this one. We are using ARM templates to deploy VMs and the need of a reboot over complicates the process. Would there be an ETA for this request?
