[Xamarin.Build.Download] Using 7z to extract .tgz files can cause the build task to hang forever.
Android framework version
Other
Affected platform version
It should have started a long time ago.
Description
-
Currently, I am using the latest VS2022 17.12.0, and when building an iOS application on Windows, the build task hangs forever.
-
And through diagnostics, I had found that the process was stuck in the state of extracting GAppM-10.28.0.tgz.

4.Look, what have we found? It wants us to agree to whether to overwrite.

Obviously, the extraction has been waiting for a response.
So, the fix is quite simple.
Relevant log output
For any stumbling across this issue, there's a manual workaround that allows me to build my project again:
- Navigate in Windows to the following directory: C:\Users[USER]\AppData\Local\XamarinBuildDownloadCache
- Look for GAppM-10.28.0.tgz and extract it. If it doesn't exist, you can download it from here: https://dl.google.com/firebase/ios/analytics/4d5ec9a36b6d4fd4/GoogleAppMeasurement-10.28.0.tar.gz. Make sure to extract it to the folder name "GAppM-10.28.0".
- You should see a file called "GAppM-8.9.1.unpacked" in the XamarinBuildDownloadCache directory. Make a copy of that and rename the file to "GAppM-10.28.0.unpacked".
- VS should now recognize that the folder now exists and shouldn't prompt for the Overwrite of the folder in the background, which was the cause of the build hang.
Having this error while building MAUI .NET 9 for iOS.
Solved following workaround from previous message:
- Manual extract GAppM-11.0.0
- Create new file named GAppM-11.0.0.unpacked with content: This marks that the extraction completed successfully as the original one
- Problem solved
Seems to happen to any Google archive using the Xamarin.Build.Download.XamarinDownloadArchives process on Windows.
Happens with the Google Maps library as well (as used in this package): I had to extract the GMps-9.2.0.tgz file and create a GMps-9.2.0.unpacked file the same way as the other workarounds listed above.

I tried this solution and it first failed on the manual extract because of some priviliges. I then tried running a 7zip.exe instance as admin to extract, which worked, but then when building the project VS would not get priviliges to acces the same files i had issues with extracting. The file seemed to be
C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\XamarinBuildDownloadCache\GAppM-11.0.0.tgz\GoogleAppMeasurement-11.0.0\Frameworks\GoogleAppMeasurement.xcframework\ios-arm64_x86_64-maccatalyst\GoogleAppMeasurement.framework\Modules
which is a .symlink file. I dont have experience with these files but i cant seem to enable acces to the file, when i righ click > properties > security, all my users (even the one im on rn, which should be admin) have full access and permissions, but it still denies me enty. I tried following the target path, as symlink seems to be some sort of shortcut type of file, and all files after the modules one i can access without permissions issues, its just the modules one that's getting me stuck.
Any solutions for this?
This has been happening forever and been logged previously. Just never fixed. Using 7-Zip instead of 7z should fix the issue If this can't be permenantly be made the fix, then allow the option to configure the zip tool to use for this process and allow users to configure it.
I want share "workarounds" that worked for me
First, in case anyone is thinking I haven't seet long file names enables in windows, I have.
There are two issues
- The zip tool used can't hanlde long file names
- The copy tool uses can't handle long file names
Issues 1 leads to the issues mentioned here. Issue 2 leads to issues like those mentioned here https://github.com/xamarin/GoogleApisForiOSComponents/issues/649
Here is my work around which fixed these issues (except for a google maps issue I had to do something similar too that @VideoSystems suggested)
In my project folder I put the following.
<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(TargetFramework)' == 'net8.0-android'">
<RestorePackagesPath>c:\pk</RestorePackagesPath>
<IntermediateOutputPath>C:\Cache\$(MSBuildProjectName)\obj\</IntermediateOutputPath>
<BaseOutputPath>C:\Cache\$(MSBuildProjectName)\out\</BaseOutputPath>
</PropertyGroup>
<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(TargetFramework)' == 'net8.0-ios'">
<RestorePackagesPath>c:\pk</RestorePackagesPath>
<BaseOutputPath>../../../Cache\$(MSBuildProjectName)\out\</BaseOutputPath>
<IntermediateOutputPath>../../../Cache\$(MSBuildProjectName)\obj\</IntermediateOutputPath>
</PropertyGroup>
In my case, I am temporarily using https://www.nuget.org/packages/Maonaoda.Xamarin.Build.Download/0.12.0 Of course, after the replacement, you may need to ensure that 7z.exe ends execution (you can manually close or restart the computer)

Ok thanks

- VS should now recognize that the folder now exists and shouldn't prompt for the Overwrite of the folder in the background, which was the cause of the build hang.
When the build hangs, if you kill 7z process, Visual Studio tells what to do: "Unpacking failed. Please download 'https://dl.google.com/firebase/ios/analytics/c7be091d3128a013/GoogleAppMeasurement-11.0.0.tar.gz' and extract it to the 'C:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Local\XamarinBuildDownloadCache\GAppM-11.0.0' directory and create an empty file called 'C:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Local\XamarinBuildDownloadCache\GAppM-11.0.0.unpacked'." When I did so, the build finished successfully.
