Describe the bug

After upgrading to recent version we get the following error when trying to get a service from the provider:

Message = "Unable to resolve service for type 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting.IHostingEnvironment' while attempting to activate 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting.DefaultApplicationInsightsServiceConfigureOptions'."

It is the following lines that introduces the error: services.AddApplicationInsightsTelemetry(applicationInsightsServiceOptions);

When I remove the same line the rest of the code works, and no exceptions, but I think we then will loose Telemetry logging.

Has the method of initalization, registering the services, or dependencieschanged from 2.22.0 to 2.23.0?

Hi @frodesorhoy, There was only one change to how services are registered. https://github.com/microsoft/ApplicationInsights-dotnet/pull/2908 This was a fix for another bug.

Yours is the first bug we've had reported with the 2.23.0 milestone. If you can please share a minimal repro for this issue I would really like to take a look.

I got a workaround (in our case):

Before (where I get the error):

       services.AddApplicationInsightsTelemetry();
       services.AddSingleton(_ =>
       {
           var telemetryConfiguration = new TelemetryConfiguration();
           telemetryConfiguration.ConnectionString = configuration["ApplicationInsights:ConnectionString"];
           telemetryConfiguration.TelemetryInitializers.Add(new OperationCorrelationTelemetryInitializer());
           return new TelemetryClient(telemetryConfiguration);
       });

After (no errors):

       services.AddSingleton(_ =>
       {
           var telemetryConfiguration = new TelemetryConfiguration();
           telemetryConfiguration.ConnectionString = configuration["ApplicationInsights:ConnectionString"];
           telemetryConfiguration.TelemetryInitializers.Add(new OperationCorrelationTelemetryInitializer());
           return new TelemetryClient(telemetryConfiguration);
       });
       services.AddApplicationInsightsTelemetry();

There seems to be some dependencies on the order of the operations and how implementations and interfaces are registered. We've had similar issues in other projects where the order of the registrations have had impact on the if Application Insights have worked or not. There we have fixed the issues by registering Application Insights before all else. Working a litle "by accident" I guess :-)

We encountered the issue. Thanks @frodesorhoy for the workaround
