Crashes when NUnit3TestAdapter is present

[OsirisTerje]

Nunit.COnsole 3.13 Adapter 4.1 NUnit 3.13.2 netcoreapp3.1

Repro : https://github.com/nunit/nunit3-vs-adapter.issues/tree/master/Issue912

Command: nunit3-console Issue912.dll

Result:

The adapter has embedded engine DLLs, but the same error happens if these are deleted from the output folder.

@OsirisTerje It's not clear from the repo project how the console runner gets into your netcoreapp3.1 directory. How is it installed?

[OsirisTerje]

@CharliePoole It is globally installed, it is not in the same directory

[CharliePoole]

But you're typing nunit3-console Issue912.dll in that directory. So I was wondering if you used the chocolatey package, the msi, or what? AFAIR only chocolatey sets up an alias.

[OsirisTerje]

The MSI was used to install it

[CharliePoole]

OK... I'll install the same way and check it out.

[CharliePoole]

I first installed using chocolatey (because it's so much easier) and was able to run without error.

I next uninstalled the chocolatey package and installed the msi. I added the directory containing nunit-console to my path. Got the same error as you.

So, the error is in the msi packaging. I'll investigate further, but consider using the chocolatey install as a workaround. It has the advantages that (1) you don't need to mess with your path and (2) you can add and remove extensions independently.

BTW I like your idea of having a separate repo for bug repros. I think I'll do the same.

@OsirisTerje ~~You could also try deleting addins from your install, if you are not using them.~~ DIDN'T WORK!

Verified that the problem still exists in 3.15.
