VS 2008 Convert 2005 Project To 2008?
Apr 27, 2010
I have a project that I developed in VS2005 and that has been put into VSS. I am trying to "get" it on a new machine and convert it to VS2008 because that is what is installed on the new machine. I am having problems with it that I think originate in its working folder. So my basic question is, when you try to work with a solution that's in VSS should you maintain the same folder structure that it had when it was originally checked in? I'm not particularly happy with its original structure because it goes on and on seven levels deep, and I wanted to just cut it down to C:ProjectsResNew, but if that's what it takes to get it to work, I'll do it.

I have downloaded a project from the internet called the SMS Source example. I wanted to open this project in VS2010, so a conversion wizard has popped up prompting for the conversion. But it has errors in converting.
Error msg:
Conversion Report - SMSSend.csproj:
Error converting project file. MSB0001: Internal MSBuild Error: Missing resource 'MissingAttribute'

I have a Visual Studio solution created in 2005 and I want to start working with it in 2008. I opened it and it was run through the wizard. My first error is a message that says: The Web Applicatin Project is configured to use IIS. You must install the following IIS components: IIS 6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration Compatibility.So, I googled that and found this:IIS 7.0 is included with Windows Vista. However, when you first install Windows Vista, by default IIS 7.0 is not enabled. This topic describes how to enable IIS and configure it so that in Visual Studio you can create local IIS ASP.NET Web sites. This enables you to use a local copy of IIS to run and debug the Web site instead of using the ASP.NET Development Server.The bold is mine, because I want to know why I can't just use the ASP.NET Development Server? I always have in the past. Oh, and I'm not running Vista, I'm running Windows 7, but I don't think that matters.

I just completed converting my vs 2005 web app to Vs 2008. Question:After I make changes to the app and before I move the changes out to our web server, what must I consider for the web server?1) During conversion I allowed the project to convert from 2.0 framework to 3.5. On the web server, I assume it needs to be upgraded to 3.5 as well. Can I upgrade directly from a site or would you recommend I install VS 2008 on the web server as well (which comes with 3.5)? 2) Do I need to change the application name or virtual name on the web server or can I keep it the same?

I'm getting an error on serveral reports that I built in VWD2005 (express) using the reportviewer control. Trying to edit the rdlc file in VS2010, VS2010 asks if i want to convert the file to RDLC 2008 format and I click ok. When I build the site, I getthis error (and of course also when the report is ran)Error 1 The report definition is not valid.

I have numerous web sites created over the years. Some were created using FrontPage with aspx pages added that were created in VS 2003 or VS 2005. Others were web sites that were actually created with VS 2005 or 2008. All these older sites reside in the C:Inetpubwwwroot folder of my present development computer, with only the .sln and the .suo files residing in the project folder. All of the sites have counterparts on the Internet.I am about to build a new computer and would prefer to only install VS 2010 on it. When Previously building new computers, I installed VS 2005 and VS 2008 so that I could administer

I have two projects in my solution
1- asp.net web project.
2- wcf serivce project.
3- other common projects between two listed above
Current on the local dev machine I have to run two visual studio instance to run both projects in debug mode. That makes the system run out of resources as these projects share some other project in the soultion which are heavy in files.
Is there a way i can hookup the wcf project on a sinlge visual stodio instance and also be able to debug my asp.net web project. ? I do not want to combine the web and wcf project in to one. Have already considred this option.

I have two applicaitons. One is web service written in VS2008 and the other one is Windows CE 5.0 application written in VS2005.
This CE application will use web service to talk to the database. After I build and compile the web service successfully, I publish one copy to my localhost and this CE application point to my localhost and consume the web service.
I'm finding a way to debug the web service. I want to step into web service every time CE application make a connection with web service (like we put a breakpoint in windows application go step by step)
However, When I run the web service, it starts with some virtual port. And so my Ce application call didn't come to this running Web service (run by VS2008).

SQL server 2005
I have created a reports project through SQL Business intelligence studio, There is shared data source in it. The name of the sharedata source is MyReport.rds.I have added two new items to the project (reports folder) with names Survey.rdl and myProjectReport.rdl.
Before deploying it, I have specified three properties ( Throgh the project properties)
1) TargetDataSourceFolder=DataSources
2)TargetReportFolder= reports
3)TargetServerURL=http://localhost/reportserver and deployed it.
When I view it in the browser through
http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx
I get my folder called reports, and when I click on it I can see two reports, it works till this stage.
I want to use the same report in Visual studio 2008 so I have done the following in VS 2008
Visual Studio 2008
1) Added a page
2) Added Reportviewer Control to the page
3) Click Properties of Reportviewer and Choose <server Rreport>
4) Set Report Server URL: http://localhost/reportserver
5) set Report Path= /reports/
It comes up with the following error:
The path of the item '/reports/' is not valid. The full path must be less than 260 characters long; other restrictions apply. If the report server is in native mode, the path must start with slash. (rsInvalidItemPath)

I need to store passwords provided by the user. Yes, passwords. I could not use Hashes because I need to supply the password to another external service for authentication, and therefore I need to have the password.
What is the best and most secure way to store the passwords? As the external data provides private data it is of course very important that the password in my MS SQL DB is stored as safe as possible.

I'm trying to set up a new project (Web Application, not Web Site) in such a way as the web root is in a different location to the "supporting files" (ie. .sln, .vbproj and My Project folder). I'd like to keep the web site root clear of these files.
It seems to be possible when creating a new "Web Site", as the project files are put in VS's "projects" folder, and only web.config and default.aspx end up in the web root, which is good.
For a Web Application, however, I'm having trouble. It seems to require web.config in the same location as the project file. I've tried this sort of arrangement:
As you can see, when I run it with F5, VS complains and creates a new web.config in the same folder as the .vbproj file. However I can run it in IIS without a problem (the IIS app path is configured for the wwwroot folder). But VS doesn't like it.
Is there an established, proper way of separating project files from the web site content with a Web Application?
