[severity:It's more difficult to complete my work] [regression] [worked-in:17.10]

• Visual Studio 2022 Community Version 17.10.3
• Project Type: ASP.NET Core Web API
• Problems
  : key values in the appsettings.json can't be loaded under the Linux environments

1. injects an appsettings.json variables through constructor injection with IConfiguration
   private readonly IConfiguration _configuration;
   private string _myhost;
   public AuthController( ILogger<AuthController> logger, IConfiguration configuration){
   _logger = logger;
   _configuration = configuration;
   _myhost = _configuration.GetSection("GoogleAuth").GetValue<string>("TokenUri") ?? string.Empty;
   }

[HttpGet("test")]
public async Task<IActionResult> Test(){
_logger.LogInformation( $"... Google Auth Token URI : ==> {_myhost} " );
}

2. Run with Debug mode in the local Windows machine runs ok.
   it produce the items in the debug console window in the appsettings.json file

3. When the publish or debug build files are uploaded the Ubuntu Linux server machine,
   _logger can't display the items variable in the appsettings.json file

• I suppose this problem showed from the version17.10.2 ???

• I hope the VS will be right back to normal...

When the publish or debug build files are uploaded the Ubuntu Linux server machine,
_logger can't display the items variable in the appsettings.json file

That's strange, as something like this works on many linux-machines w/o problems.
I guess the problems is somewhere in copying / deploying to the Linux machine.

W/o a concrete repro this issue can't be resolved here.
