I run the preparaion pack then successfully run the installation of SP1 I do not see verification on the 'About VS 2008' page.
Consequently (I think) my attempts at installing SQL Server Management Express 2008 constantly fails due to the lack of SP1.

View 1 RepliesI have a solution of VS2008 with 60 odd porject with targetted framework 2.0.
Now I wanted to Upgrade all proejct framework at once from .net 2.0 to 3.5 in and exhisting VS2008 solution
I don't wanted to upgrade each project one by one.
How can i do it
I upgraded a large web project to asp.net 4 with vs2010.
In many pages i am getting now the famous "The server tag is not well formed." error.
This is a result of properties not enclosed in quotation mark. like:
<img height="19" width="19" src="../Images/General/Main/doc_dateButton.jpg" onmouseover=changeImg(this,'doc_dateButtonRO.jpg',1) onmouseout=changeImg(this,'doc_dateButton.jpg',1) onclick="calendar(docAll('AppealDate'))" runat = "server" id="ImgAppealDate" /> .
These are not even server properties - only client events written by hand.
Fixing a single page is easy, but i have plenty of pages in the project.
All the pages worked fine under asp.net 3.5.
My application uses authentication mode="Forms". I am doing my first Publish since the upgrade and all looks correct. I publish to the File System which is what I used to do in VS2008. When I install the app on my server (IIS6), the login page renders correctly and I enter correct authentication. In previous versions, the application would then render the Default.aspx page. Now, I receive a windows authentication window for my website. I'm not sure what's changed and I think it has something to do with the publish process in VS2010 although I may be mistaken

View 2 RepliesI need an advice on which edition of VS 2008 to order. We are a team of 3 developers, one of use has VS 2008 Team Suite edition, but he works on a different projects under different management, and the remaining 2 of us are working with VS 2003. So we want to upgrade to VS 2008.
Can we buy a one edition of Team suite and the another Professional edition for the other developer, or it has to be Team suite for all developers.
Do you think we are going to miss anything by buying Professional edition for both of us.I'm not really sure which way to go.
At work I'm tryhing to upgrade an ASP.NET 2.0 app (which we wrote using VB.NET 2005) to ASP.NET 4.0. I had a few problems during the upgrade, but eventually worked them all out. At the end of the day I decided to give it a quick compile and see if I'd get the start page, so I hit F5 in VS 2010. I left it that way, and man was it acting weird. VS 2010 wasn't responding to anything. If I hovered the mouse over VS 2010's minimize or close buttons, in the upper right corner, then those buttons were flashing very rapidly. I'm not sure what was going on. After waiting 15 minutes to see if it would come up, I decided to try clicking on the close button. Nothing happened. Eventually, I had to leave (I take public transit, and I have to leave when the bus comes)But what I want to know is this, is this pretty standard behavior? Does it normally take this long to do this? This website is of modest size (<100 pages).
(Later) When I came into work today, 8 hours later, VS 2010 was still doing whatever the heck it was doing, but basically it wasn't responding to anything.
How do I upgrade an existing VS2010 ASP.Net 3.5 project from Entity Framework 3.5 to Entity Framework 4.0?
Do I:
- Change the references?
- Change the target framework?

View 1 RepliesIm working on windows 7 operating system now and having a few issues with the sql server. I had visual studio 2005 and sql server express 2005 installed on my machine 1st. i then got visual studio 2008 and installed sql server express 2008. when i try and create a new database in the App_Data file (sql server database *.mdf file) i get the following error message;
"Connections to sql server files (*.mdf) require sql server express 2005 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the url: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=49251"

We recently converted the VS.2005 application into VS2008 in XP machine and it was working fine like compiling with out any issues and working as expected. But recently team upgraded laptops to Win7 when trying to compile it we have got issues then we changed the compiler settings to 'x86' and compiled it went good. But after that login screen came when ran the applciation without environment selection (production, DEV, Testing etc). basically we are getting this environment setup from system registry, we uderstand that Win7 is looking in different location hence no environment information is coming up..later we see that where the code is looking for environment environment and created environment keys in registry, after that environment infromation displayed in login screen but not able to login into applciaiton throwing exceptions like " Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))"

View 2 RepliesI installed Microsoft Windows Sever Enterprise Edition (rus) SP1, downloaded (manually) and installed Windows Server 2003 SP2.Installed VSTS (Visual Studio Team System) 2008 (with MS SQL 2005 Express with it, MS Office 2003, MSSQL2008 Developer Preview), IE7.And my Windows Update does not detect/autoupdates any updates/service packs for VSTS2008 and MSSQLServers...like Windows XP, only updates for operating system Windows Server 2003, .NET, IE7, MS Office, etc.
Is it something wrong with my setup?Should Windows Server 2003 autoupdate detect and install VSTS2008 and MS SQL Servers updates, or should not?
I am trying to install vs 2008 on a 64 bit windows 7.
when it completes about 10% of the installation it gives me a list of error messages telling that setup has failed.I searched in microsoft communities and on the net,
I am using vs2008 sp1. I am building web site with aspx. I am also using an ajax control. My Site was working normally. I could run it from f5 and it would stop at a debug point. I added an additional aspx page. Then I got a strange error. When I pressed f5 a message box appeared saying that I had not made this version with the debug option. Then from reading an internect post I disabled only my code. That got rid of the message box error but now the debugger does not stop at any break point? Of course this happen when I need to go live with this project in a day.
View 1 RepliesI've got about 30 projects in VS 2008 and we are finally starting to upgrade to 2010. I get change requests pretty regularly so I'm likely to have to make changes to projects that are still in 2008 after VS 2010 is installed. Is it possible to intall VS 2010 without messing up the VS 2008 install? If so is there any particular trick to it so they live side by side or do they automatically do parallel install in different directories?
View 3 RepliesI have a problem with Visual Studio Debugging. I use some Skin for my Web Application, e when I debug it, the debug controls stops on the skin. I press F10 multiple times, but I've never reached the end of the skin file in this way. It's a problem for me, since some times I don't know where the control goes after the skin. And pressing F5, I lose the control on the debug flow. Does someone know how to avoid the Skin debug (o better, the debug of certain file extensions) in Visual Studio 2008?
View 1 RepliesI did have this working but now something has stopped it (after trying to integrate combres)
My dev machine is win 7x64, running VS2008. I have a solution with number projects (mostly libraries), one was a webapplication. This webapplication used http://127.0.0.1/ to debug through. That site was configured to point to the home directory of that web application.
It was set up this way because i was URL Rewriting and that was the only way i could get it working
However now whenever i start up visual studio it complains that the local IIS has not been configured, would you like to create the virtual directory. If i say no then the project is not loaded, if i say yes then the process fails with could not find the server http://127.0.0.1 on the local machine. Creating a virtual directory is only supporting on the local IIS server.
I can edit the XML of the project file to turn off Use IIS in which case i can load the project but the site doesn't work through the integrated visual studio server.
I've tried removing the website in IIS7 and removing the AppPool and rebuilding but no go.
