NuGet push to TFS Feed publishes nuget as V2 but TFS Build expect to restore V3

Question

I have setup a NuGet Package feed in TFS 2017 Update 1. The NuGet Source is as following

http://tfsserver:8080/tfs/defaultcollection/_packaging/NuGet-Feed/nuget/v3/index.json

Following the instructions stated when connecting to TFS Package Feed, I added NuGet source locally and also try to publish package(s) to the NuGet Feed with following format as an example:

nuget.exe  push -Source "NuGet-Feed" -ApiKey INCTX Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.Abstractions.1.1.2.nupkg

The result of executing above command is as following:

Pushing Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.Abstractions.1.1.2.nupkg to 'http://tfsserver:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/_packaging/23093bd8-41aa-403d-9d3f-5c713b14ce32/nug
et/v2/'...
  PUT http://mtrlpqdc2av-053:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/_packaging/23093bd8-41aa-403d-9d3f-5c713b14ce32/nuget/v2/
  Accepted http://mtrlpqdc2av-053:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/_packaging/23093bd8-41aa-403d-9d3f-5c713b14ce32/nuget/v2/ 1702ms
Your package was pushed.

As it shows, the package is published to 'nuget/v2' endpoint.

Running TFS Build with NuGet Restore task: the following command expects nuget/V3/ endpoint from the TFS Feed which does not exists. Note: NuGet restore task in TFS build is customized to use NuGet 4.. version.

GET http://tfsserver:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/_packaging/23093bd8-41aa-403d-9d3f-5c713b14ce32/nuget/v3/flat2/microsoft.aspnetcore.http.abstractions/1.1.2/microsoft.aspnetcore.http.abstractions.1.1.2.nupkg

The question I guess is why NuGet Push will publish to 'nuget/v2/' endpoint.

TFS Build NuGet Restore Task output:

What's the detail error message? The address is correct, you can go to your feed page, then select that package and check the details of Install [package] section. — starian chen-MSFT
I event used NuGet 4.* version. The package push, publishes to nuget/v2 endpoint, I don't know why?. TFS Build NuGet Restore task, is running the 'GET' command as I stated and is looking for nuget/v3. In the feed page, selecting the package also refers to nuget/v3 endpoints. The push does a PUT to nuget/v2 as I mentioned and I don't know why I does that. Updated the question with more results from TFS build task. — Mamrez
I used NuGet 4.0 and the push endpoint is nugget/v2, the restore endpoint is nugget/v3, but it works fine for me. Could you install package through Nuget.exe? What's the source URL? Try to create a new package and push to feed, then try it with this package. — starian chen-MSFT
I can install the package through with NuGet 4.0 on my laptop with the nuget/v3 restore endpoint. but the TFS NuGet Restore task goes Not Found with nuget/v3 endpoint, that's odd. I use NuGet 4.0 in the NuGet Build restore task, which I put the NuGet 4.0 on the build controller. — Mamrez

You may want to check your nuget.config and reference the following:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/tools/nuget-exe-cli-reference#push

it says you can either specify it on push or define DefaultPushSource in the config. I might suspect your v2 source is defined as DefaultPushSource in the config.

try: nuget.exe config DefaultPushSource to see what it is set to.

NuGet push to TFS Feed publishes nuget as V2 but TFS Build expect to restore V3
