ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Token 2007ffe is not valid in the scope of module System.ModuleHandle.

Describe the bug

I keep getting this error while working with dotnet watch on a ASP.NET Core project

An unhandled exception occurred while processing the request.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Token 2007ffe is not valid in the scope of module System.ModuleHandle. (Parameter 'typeToken')
System.ModuleHandle.ResolveTypeHandle(int typeToken, RuntimeTypeHandle[] typeInstantiationContext, RuntimeTypeHandle[] methodInstantiationContext)

To Reproduce

I am not sure how to reproduce it. I've never seen this error before until I upgraded to SDK 9.0.201

I simply trigger dotnet watch to reload a project by modifying any of its files (both cshtml or cs) and I get this error.

CTRL+R fixes it but kills the dev experience.

Although dotnet watch shouldn't cause the exception in the first place, the exception message also looks suboptimal.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Token 2007ffe is not valid in the scope of module System.ModuleHandle. (Parameter 'typeToken')

Instead of "System.ModuleHandle", it would be more useful to show the name of the module.

The exception message is formatted here: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/831d23e56149cd59c40fc00c7feb7c5334bd19c4/src/coreclr/System.Private.CoreLib/src/System/RuntimeHandles.cs#L1324-L1331

It uses new ModuleHandle(module) as a format argument, but ModuleHandle is a struct that does not override ToString.

That is not a regression, as .NET Framework has similar code here: https://github.com/microsoft/referencesource/blob/51cf7850defa8a17d815b4700b67116e3fa283c2/mscorlib/system/runtimehandles.cs#L1916-L1918

System.Reflection.Module, the base class of RuntimeModule, does override ToString and it is used as a format argument elsewhere, so I think this format call should just use module.

Thanks for report. Could you please provide repro steps?

Alternatively, please set Microsoft_CodeAnalysis_EditAndContinue_LogDir env variable to a directory path, run dotnet-watch --verbose and share the content of the directory and the console output.

I don't have a repro.

I'm working on an ASP.NET Core solution. I use dotnet watch run and since the change of SDK version, I randomly get the error shown in the opening thread.

It happens when I change the Razor pages code behind class more often than when changing the actual razor file.

Only way to restore is stopping and restarting the watcher.

[tmat]

If you remember to set Microsoft_CodeAnalysis_EditAndContinue_LogDir before running dotnet watch you could work as usual and when you encounter an issue you could share the latest logs from the directory.

[Kralizek]

I hope I can get stuff to happen and give you the logs.
