I have a ASP.NET 5 NuGet package called Boilerplate.Web.Mvc6. I am unable to to reference the NuGet package in my ASP.NET 5 website. Here is my project.json file referencing "Boilerplate.Web.Mvc6": "1.0.11".

{
  // Omitted

  "dependencies": {
    "Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc": "6.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.TagHelpers": "6.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.AspNet.Server.IIS": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.AspNet.Server.WebListener": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.AspNet.StaticFiles": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.AspNet.Tooling.Razor": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.Framework.Configuration.EnvironmentVariables": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.Framework.Configuration.Json": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.Framework.Configuration.UserSecrets": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.Framework.Logging": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.Framework.Logging.Console": "1.0.0-beta6",
    "Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.BrowserLink.Loader": "14.0.0-beta6",
    "Newtonsoft.Json": "7.0.1",
    "System.Runtime": "4.0.20-beta-23109",
    "Boilerplate.Web.Mvc6": "1.0.11"
  },

  // Omitted
}

When I add the package above, the references in the project shows an error and I get the following printed in the output window:

What's going wrong?

UPDATE

These are my NuGet package feeds:

  1. nuget.org - https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json
  2. My Get - http://MyGet.org/aspnetmaster
  3. Microsoft .NET - https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/curated-feeds/microsoftdotnet/

UPDATE 2

I ran dnu restore --ignore-failed-sources and got the following output, where it still can't find my NuGet package. The strange thing is that I can reference 1.0.10 of the same package from my ASP.NET 5 project but not from an ASP.NET 5 class library.

Can you post all the nuget feeds you are using? You can find this under Tools->Options->Package Manager – user844705
I'm on my phone so I cant check, but try deselecting all feeds except the feed with the boilerplate package and then run Update-Package -reinstall Boilerplate.Web.Mvc6 in the package console. – user844705
The feed url is wrong. It should be myget.org/F/aspnetmaster/api/v2 – davidfowl

It might be a myget bug. I opened a bug on dnu anyway (see it here) and also pinged the myget folks.

The issue is that http://MyGet.org/aspnetmaster/FindPackagesById()?id='Boilerplate.Web.Mvc6' returns 200 OK and HTML when the package is not found and we try to parse it as XML.

You can pass --ignore-failed-sources to dnu restore to unblock yourself.

I have tried deleting the project.lock.json file and re-opening Visual Studio which usually solves this problem for me.

I have since retried installing version 1.0.11 of the package and it magically worked. Since previous versions were working and I made no changes to the project or my installation, I suspect this to be a NuGet package on-boarding problem. It has taken three days for NuGet to register the new version of the package.
