Instead of getting my HomeController back with an instance of ILogger injected into it, I got the following error message:
InvalidOperationException: Unable to resolve service for type 'Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger' while attempting to activate 'MyApp.Web.Controllers.HomeController'.
This code worked before but refuses to work in ASP.NET Core 2.0.
Someone mentioned me to try the following instead:
And indeed this worked. It turns out that the ILogger interface is no longer registered in the IoC container. Instead you have to always resolve an ILogger<T>. I have no clue why they did this change…
