C# Rider IDE can't create a new project

Viewed 28

I've installed Rider IDE on my Arch machine using flatpak, I face an error while creating new projects Unable to load project and obtain project information from MsBuild.

The error message says: Probably this project is incompatible with the current MsBuild.
MsBuild error details: Protocol connection was interrupted because the process has exited.

Anyone knows why it happens, and how can I fix the issue?

I have .NET6 installed and everything (including build process) works on VSCode.

I've tried cloning MsBuild from the GitHub repo and building it locally, but that doesn't help either.

After all, I tried all the solutions found on the internet and realized it was an issue with the Flatpak package.

I believe the maintainer forgot to put some required files in the package, or this might be a Permission related issue!

My suggestions to all the other user who might come to this once in the future are:

  1. Learn Flatpak fully, so you be able to track what's not working and why!
  2. If you're on an Arch machine, it might be a better idea to search in the AUR first.
