Description

Now that we package the server inside the extension, it is possible to get an ia32 server version on x64 platforms. This can cause issues when using an x64 version of .net (as the runtime installer as well will not download the ia32 version of dotnet).

We should surface a better error message (with a solution) instead of the current path platform mismatch error.
