Version

Bot Composer: 2.0.0 SDK runtime packages: 4.12.0 PowerShell 7

OS

• [ ] macOS
• [X] Windows
• [ ] Ubuntu

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. In Bot Composer Desktop app, create a bot with "Core Bot with Language" template
2. Open the bot folder in Visual Studio (2019)
3. Follow this doc to create a custom action
4. See error

Expected behavior

Expect there's no errors (since I follow documentation for every step). Even there are unexpected errors, there should be documentation guide a bot dev how to resolve it. From the error messages I received, I don't understand what's wrong.

Additional context

Found a similar issue posted in stackoverflow, but the answer doesn't fix it.

[srinaath]

@Vivihung Can you open the bot folder and delete the generated folder and try to merge the schemas again? We have a know bug in the with bf-dialog merge tool not excluding the definitions inside the generated folder.

[dmvtech]

@srinaath I can reproduce this myself without even having a generated folder. I just created a brand new bot using Core Bot with Language then run the update-schema.ps1 script. This happens with or without creating a new .schema file. This does not reproduce with the Empty Bot template.

[collinsbenjw]

The following changes I found to be useful in my case: Line 11, change "!**/generated" to "!../generated" and add "!../dialogs/imported"

[SSanjeevi]

@dmvtech - Schema merge seems to work after we delete the imported folder inside the schemas folder.

But bot fails on starting up getting error, please help.

I faced the same issue even after applying @collinsbenjw solution. Then I deleted the imported folder under schemas which is auto-generated and then ran the bash-script (update-schema.sh) which ran successfully.

Added rm -rf "imported" command in bash-script before echo "Running schema merge." so that I don't have to delete imported folder manually.

Step #1: Follow guild for adding custom action and add the custom action Link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/composer/how-to-create-custom-actions Alternatively add the custom action from the bot sample files.

Step #2: Run the powershell script. With or with out the updated line from bug #8888. You will still receive and error about the SMSAdapater and the script will fail.

Hi @piechk,

Are you still facing this issue? I was not able to repro when creating custom action from doc https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/composer/how-to-create-custom-actions

Are you able to provide the reproducible custom action .zip project code?

[ramfattah]

@collinsbenjw's solution worked from my end:

Line 11, change "!**/generated" to "!../generated" and add "!../dialogs/imported"

Final resulting command:

bf dialog:merge "*.schema" "!**/sdk-backup.schema" "*.uischema" "!**/sdk-backup.uischema" "!**/sdk.override.uischema" "!../generated" "../*.csproj" "../package.json" "!../dialogs/imported" -o $SCHEMA_FILE

Closing with workaround.
