UiPath.Workday.Activities package - Unable to find package ActiproSoftware.Wpf

Hello,

I just started using the UiPath.Workday.Activities package. I get an error each time I launch the UiPath project:

NU1101: Unable to find package ActiproSoftware.Wpf

The activities seem to be working fine but the error is disconcerting.

I’ve tried:

  • regressing back through the Workday.Activities older versions.

  • verifying that my .net framework was current

  • uninstalling UiPath, removing all uipath .nuget packages and reinstalling

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hello @cynthia.libby,

This is a good catch. Originally the ActiproSoftware.Shared.Wpf Nuget was hosted on nuget.org. The google search engine has an index of the page and its located at https://www.nuget.org/packages/ActiproSoftware.Shared.Wpf. But Actipro Software has removed the Nuget from all public nuget hosting sites.

The only fix for this is UiPath has to bundle the respective dll within the activity package or host it on thier gallery nuget server.

Hello @loginerror,

You may have these details already and UiPath may be working it. But never the less wanted to report his to you, so that you can get this to the right team internally.

When installing UiPath.Workday.Activties , all versions have the dependency of ActiproSoftware.Wpf as shown below:

This packge is not available online on any of the default nuget feeds.

UiPath will have to bundle it with the package or host it on https://gallery.uipath.com/.

Thanks & Regards,
Nithin

Thanks - glad you found the old page on nuget. It makes more sense that it was there and working at one point.

I guess I need to file a support ticket. Have not done that yet.

Hi @cynthia.libby

Thank you for the report, I informed the responsible team. We will come back with updates.

EDIT
A fix is expected to be live next week.

FYI, we have released 1.2.1-preview to the feeds and Connect at UiPath.Workday.Activities package - Unable to find package ActiproSoftware.Wpf. This contains a fix to this issue. Please upgrade to this release and let us know should it not resolve your issue.

Hi, Paul. Seems that UiPath.Box.Activities depends on ActiproSoftware.Wpf [18.1.6740, ) too. Will there be a fix for this package too?

Same with UiPath.Tableau.Activities v1.0.4-preview

Hi @luiz.rocha,

The latest preview versions (1.2.0, 1.2.1) are definitely broken and the error is the same. However, the older version 1.1.6 is working as expected using this would be a temporary solution until UiPath releases a fixed package.

Hope that helps !

Thank you @Nithin_P
just to be sure, you are talking about the UiPath.Box.Activities, correct?

If so, I was unable to reproduce the issue with 21.10.
So a quick fix could be downgrading studio, if this is possible for you.

We will give it a try with 22.4 asap and I will came back to you wit han update.

Hi @robert.wagner,

Yes I was talking about the UiPath.Box.Activities as @luiz.rocha reported. However, I just checked the latest preview version of Tableau activity pack as @Shamo_Li reported and got the same error. Again in this case as well older version 1.0.2 is still working as expected :

Thanks,
Nithin

@Nithin_P Thank you so much we will look into this!
Cheers
Robert

@Nithin_P just did an update but I was unable to reproduce this with 22.4 either.

I will discuss this my devs in our stand up.
Would you be available for a zoom or teams call so we can have closer look?

Hi @robert.wagner,

I’m available for a Zoom Call.

Also, Just to be 100% sure that this isn’t due to the network I’m on or the system permissions, I tried installing these on my personal laptop on home network.

@Nithin_P Thank you for your efforts!
Since I was unable to reproduce it, one of my devs will have a closer look next week.

Can you drop me a message to robert.wagner@uipath.com so I have your email in case we need to schedule a zoom session? I do not know how to get your mail other than this way :slight_smile:

Cheers and have a great weekend!
