Nuget keeps showing the message: "Retrieving information...".

  • I tried to clean nuget cache,
  • reinstalling nuget package manager,
  • I downloaded the package and tried to install it offline

Any ideas?

Solution

    Solution

    Install PagedList nuget package directly and the problem will go away.

    Further, and add some tips for some confusion,

    Actually, when you install PagedList.MVC 4.5.0, it will also install the dependency PagedList 1.17 at the same time. And in my side, I did not face the same issue when installing .

    So maybe your nuget.config has some issues or you have added defaultProxy on web.config file.

    Suggestion to make a clean environment

    1) close VS, delete C:\Users\xxx(current user)\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config file,

    delete .vs hidden folder under the solution folder, bin and obj folder.

    then restart VS IDE.

    2) check on your mvc project, and delete defaultProxy on web.config file.

    Then, try to install this again.

    Besides, you could try the suggestions or try the solution above which can solve your issue. And if the suggestions make no sense, try the solution directly.
