Can't connect to VPN anymore after installation of visual studio 2012

I found that a similar question was  asked, albeit for the previous version of Windows and visual studio
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itpronetworking/thread/335e9de5-f183-4d03-a441-95bc151dc7d0
it took me few days to resolve an issue, so decided to share here.
as a headline goes the story was: I installed Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 8 and after installation  an L2TP vpn connection gave error 789
the solution I found with my internet provider was  to change in registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rasman\Parameters]
"ProhibitIpSec"=dword:00000001
it looks though that this issue should be fixed, while my solution works it is hardly  useful hint for most 
affected ( if only they find a solution by search ).

Hi,
Thanks for sharing. We really appreciate your time and efforts. Hope your experience will help other community members facing similar problems.

  • Can't connect to 11g XE after installation

    Hi,
    I recently installed Oracle database 11g XE onto my home computer running Windows 32 bit, but I can't connect to the database. I also have Oracle 10g R2 installed on my computer, and I can still connect to it finely. When trying to make a connection in SQL DEVELOPER, I get this error
    ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
    I tried to tnsping the XE database and it returns successfully.

    ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor ORA-12514 ALWAYS only occurs due to a problem on DB Server system.
    One cause of this problem is when the Oracle database is down & needs to be started.
    A remote client send a request to the Listener asking to be connected to a specific service.
    If/when the listener does not know anything about that service, the listener responds with ORA-12514
    post results from the following two OS commands:
    lsnrctl status
    lsnrctl service
    Since every connection request to the listener gets logged, listener.log file will contain a line with 12514 as status code.
    This line contains valuable debugging details. So post this line & surrounding lines.
    for additional debugging suggestions read the URL below:

    any ideas?

    The TNS-12154 (ORA-12154) error appears when SQL*Net cannot find the alias specified for a connection in the TNSNAMES.ORA file or other naming adapter.
    Since we can clearly see the XE entry in your TNSNAMES.ORA file from your further post, the message implies that you are not using the TNSNAMES.ORA that contains the entry, or something is changing the lookup so the entry is not found.
    Using a different TNSNAMES.ORA can occur under the following situations:
    1) You have a TNS_ADMIN environment variable or registry entry that points somewhere other than this TNSNAMES.ORA
    2) You are on Windows NT and are using a SQLPLus that is in a different ORACLE_HOME. The WIndows environment forces the use of the networking subsystem in the ORACLE_HOME as the client program (such as SQLPLUS), which defaults to the TNSNAMES.ORA in the home as the client.
    Things I would check:
    - is there another TNSNAMES.ORA anywhere on the system
    - is there a system environment variable called TNS_ADMIN, or is that string found in the registry
    - is there possibly a second SQLPlus.exe (even on a networked drive) that migt be called before the XE - supplied SQLPLUS
    It is also possible to have a SQLNET.ORA impacting the way TNSNAMES.ORA is used. If all else checks out, we should look at the %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\sqlnet.ora in detail as well.
    By the way, the Oracle Network Administration docco has two whole chapters devoted to troubleshooting networking issues, from initial config through data errors in the various config files.

  • I cannot connect to the Internet after installation of Windows Vista Ultimate edition.

    I cannot connect to the Internet after installation of Windows Vista Ultimate edition. For some odd reason, it seems my ethernet has not yet been installed to my operating system and I do not know how to do that even with the internet, I have the LAN cable hooked up to my computer but I do not know exactly what to do about it. Is there some sort of driver I need to install, or what? How do I do that without the internet?
     This operating system is on a separate partition to my other operating system that is connected to internet already (Windows Vista Premium) that I do not wish to use anymore because of it's corruption. I tell you this because you may know a way of finding the driver files on my previous operating system that I may be able to transfer to the other.

  • My home wifi connection suddenly got cutoff, then my iPod can't connect to it anymore

    My home wifi connection suddenly got cutoff, then my iPod can't connect to it anymore whereas all other devices (Macbook, Blackberry, etc) has no problem connecting. After putting the password, the password is accepted but it keeps searching forever and refuse to connect!

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Try the following that you have not yet done to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Can't connect to wifi network after iOS update

    Can't connect to wifi network after iOS update.

    This does not work in my case.
    Situation: we have wifi at home using WPA encryption.
    The iPod Touch 8GB connected seamless to this network and anything was ok. After some days i could no longer connect, the iPod told me "connection to network 'networkname here' failed". Deleting the network and reenter the (correct) passphrase was no help, but changing the SSID on the router was helpful: the iPod could connect again ... for several days.
    Now things stopped working again. Resetting network settings did not help either.
    The iPod can see the network, is asking me for the passphrase and after several seconds telling me: can't connect. On the router log i don't even see a dhcp request, but other laptops work fine with the same wifi network.
    That's a mess, i cannot and will not change the SSID every some days just to get the iPod working again.

  • Can't connect ipad to wifi after upgrading to ios6

    can't connect ipad to wifi after upgrading to ios6

    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi. (This is probably not practical in your situation.)
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
    If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

  • OUtlook 2013 can not connect to exchange 2013 after exchange maibox member of DAG failed.

    hi ALL
    OUtlook 2013 can not connect to exchange 2013 after exchange maibox member of DAG failed.
    Exchange environment contains 2 Exchange Mailboxesserver ,( one Failed , virtual Machine)
    2 cas Servers
    first databases could not be mounted but after we run the below command , users can use OWA but outlook could not connect
    Start-DatabaseAvailabilityGroup -Identity DAG -MailboxServer MBX1
    please support
    thanks

    Hi,
    According to your description, I understand that Outlook client cannot connect to Exchange server 2013 while one member of DAG failed.
    If I have misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    I want to double confirm whether all account store in MBX1 experience this issue, users in MBX2 works fine.
    Please run following command to double check the database status:
    Get-MailboxDatabase –Status | select Name,Mounted,MountedOnServer
    If it works in OWA, the issue may be related to Outlook side. Please run “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” and “Outlook Connection Status” to get more details, expecial the setting of proxy server, it’s more helpful
    for further troubleshooting.
    Additional, please try to recreate a profile for testing. Besides, please move active DB back to MBX1.

  • Can't connect to remote SQL Server 2014 Standard with VS 2012

    Hi all,
    I am trying to create a development environment using SQL Server 2014 (not Express).  The SQL server instance is on a Windows 8.1 Pro machine in a non-domain environment.  I have Visual Studio 2012 installed on the same machine which can connect
    to the SQL server instance without problems.  I have another machine with VS 2012 that cannot connect.  SQL server is configured for mixed authentication.  The SSDT on the remote machine can see the SQL server networked instance, but will not
    connect with SQL authentication. 
    I have rounded up all the usual suspects;
    - The SQL server service is running
    - Remote connections are enabled on SQL server and the relevant firewall ports are open.
    - TCP/IP and named pipes are enabled
    - Remote connections are enabled in Management Studio
    - SQL Server Browser service in enabled and running
    What am I missing?  I have been out of developer mode for a few years and all of the tools have changed, but I seem to be missing something obvious.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Tim

    Hello,
    Have you configured the Windows Firewall on the Visual Studio computer too? Is there any other security software on those
    2 computers?
    Can you ping between both computers by computer name? If not, try connecting using the IP address. For example:
    10.0.0.10,1433
    1433 is the default SQL Server port number.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does Visual STudio 2012 References keep showing Exclamation mark (which means assembly is missing) even after I specify the exact path?

     Our web application at work requires Visual Studio 2012
    For one of the projects within the Visual Studio 2012 Web Application Solution, we need the System.Web.Mvc in the References.
    I already have the following in the packages folder:
    {blah...blah..Visual Studio Solution path..blah}\packages\Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.5.1.1\lib\net45\System.Web.Mvc.dll
    I keep adding it, but the References still shows the Exclamation mark ( which means missing) next to the System.Web.Mvc
    Why does it keep showing the Exclamation mark ( which means missing) , even after I specify the exact path to the System.Web.Mvc.dll ?

    Hi cslewis33,
    Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
    Based on your issue, if you want to add the System.Web.Mvc reference for a web application in VS2012. As far as l know that the System.Web.Mvc dll is default be located like this path:" C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET MVC 4\Assemblies\System.Web.Mvc.dll.
    So if you create the web app using c# language, I suggest you can right-click your Reference under the we application -> Add Reference->select the System.Web.Mvc in the Assemblies tab.
    If the above suggestion still could not help you, I suggest you can consult this issue directly to the ASP.NET forum:http://forums.asp.net/ , maybe you will get better support.

  • SSIS failed to execute in SSDT-BI for Visual studio 2012 after SQL 2012 SP2 upgrade

    Hello,
    I have applied sql server 2012 sp2 on my dev workstation and I am currently having this error message when trying to execute a SSIS package from SSDT-BI for visual studio 2012 : "Method
    not found: 'Boolean Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Design.VisualStudio2012Utils.IsVisualStudio2012ProInstalled()'. (Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration)"
    I found this link on SSIS forum :
    IsVisualStudio2012ProInstalled() method not found error when running an SSIS package from VS2012
    I don't have neither Gacutil.exe nor Visual studio professional installed so it can't be fixed this way... and anyway, this means we will use the old assembly version of ssis...
    sql server 2012 sp2 setup doesn't apply to SSDT-BI 2012 ?
    what can we do ?
    thanks,
    Stéphane

    Hi Stephane Guilleminot,
    According to your description, you do not execute a SSIS package from SSDT-BI for visual studio 2012 after upgrading to SQL Server 2012 SP2. The workaround is still necessary to apply SP2 and CU1 for SP2 (11.0.5532), then you still have to replace Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Design.dll
    (11.0.5532.0) with the last working version: 11.0.3412.0 from SP1 CU9.
    There is similar issue about executing SSIS package after upgrading SQL Server 2012, you can review the following similar post.

  • Visual Studio 2012 - Source Not Available After Pressing Pause While Debugging

    Hi,
    In Visual Studio 2008, when we'd open a dialog in our application (Native C++, 64-bit) and pressed 'Pause', the debugger would automatically go to the location of the dialog in the code and the call stack would show the series of calls to arrive
    at the current position.
    Now that we've upgraded to Visual Studio 2012, this functionality is lost.  When we press 'Pause', a 'Source Not Available' tab will appear.  The call stack shows the following:
    ntdll.dll!ZwWaitForSingleObject()
    KernalBase.dll!WaitForSingleObjectEx()
    <several lines of nvoglv64.dll>
    kernel32.dll!BaseThreadInitThunk()
    ntdll.dll!RtlUserThreadStart()
    At first we thought it was a symbol issue since none of the Windows-related dlls had pdbs. None of our workstations are connected to the Internet so I used symchk to download all the required symbols.  Despite all of the symbols now being loaded, the
    debugger still doesn't show the actual call stack into our code.
    Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be set? Or are we out of luck since our machines are never online?
    Any thoughts are apprecated.
    Thanks.

    According to these words above, do you mean clicking “Break All” as following image?
    The error means that our project does not contain source code for the code that we are trying to view, you could refer to
    this link for more information.
    In order to solve this issue, you could debug it in another machine which can download symbols form Symbol Servers, then copy that
    symbols to your machine to test.
    You could change the Symbols setting of the Visual Studio of the other machine as following image:
    Then copy the symbols in that directory to your machine, and change the Symbols settings to your local directory to test.
