Failed to create the package. The CloudAppX service returned an error - Internal Server Error (500): APPX package generation failed

[wannikid]

Hello,

I am trying to generate the AppX pachage for my PWA with the help of the pwabuilder.com site. I have downloaded the generated files and added them to my project, but the AppX creation fails with following error message. Would anybody know what the reason could be?

Failed to create the package. The CloudAppX service returned an error - Internal Server Error (500): APPX package generation failed. Error info: /*[local-name()=\"Package\" and namespace-uri()=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10\"]/*[local-name()=\"Identity\" and namespace-uri()=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10\"][1]/@Version"

Getting the same issue here when building an Edge Extension with either manifoldjs or pwabuilder.
I followed the instructions on msdocs, but no dice.

> pwabuilder -l debug -p edgeextension -f edgeextension -m ..\client\manifest.json
  [ Ommited for brevity ]

> pwabuilder -l debug -p edgeextension package OpenTitles\edgeextension\manifest\

@wannikid what's the current status? Did you find a solution?

I tried to run it again. This time I changed my hosting provider and also activated Win10 Dev mode, but I still get the "Package building error".
