Hello,
What happens if you open a Command Prompt and try accessing the DVD that way?

  • Help! i cant install visual studio!

    Help! Can anyone help me
    please! I downloaded Visual Studio Express
    2013 for Windows desktop
    computer suddenly made a restart
    and when it came on I tried to
    install, then an error there is a problem
    with the installation and that I should contact
    microsoft. I tried many times
    to install and could not looked for
    solutions and found I'd love to help
    from someone who knows how to deal with the problem
    thanks!

    "and about the restart of the computer It's not about installing the VS, I have this problem on a computer"
    If you are saying that you have issues with your computer unimpededly restarting, you need to address that issue before attempting to install new software.
    If I have misunderstood your statement above, please clarify. 
    I'm confused about the VS version you tried to install. Your post title shows VS 2013, but the download link you posted is for VS 2010. Please clarify.
    When you downloaded VS 2010 Express, did you download the web installer or the all-in-one ISO?
    If you tried the web installer, I suggest you download the ISO, then try a local install.
    In general, readers here need to see your install logs to address installation issues in Visual Studio. Please provide complete logs as follows:
    Please collect your install logs with this:
    http://aka.ms/vscollect
    After you run Collect.exe, you'll find vslogs.cab in your %temp% directory. Please upload vslogs.cab to a public site, like OneDrive, and post the link here.

  • Connecting Visual Studio 2008 to Team Foundation Server 2012/2013

    I currently have many projects in VS 2008.  
    We are able to build and deliver all of the products to the production servers.
    I want to connect VS2008 to VisualStudio.com so I can create an environment for Beta Testing with VisualStudio.com and Azure.
    I have started from scratch:
    Build a VMWare Virtual Machine - Windows 7 Ultimate
    Added all of the Windows Updates
    I installed Visual Studio 2008 - Professional
    I updated Visual Studio 2008 to SP1
    I have installed VS2008 Team Explorer
    Unable to install GDR2 - with message "Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition GDR does not apply, or is blocked by another condition on your system. '
    I attempted to follow the "more information" instructions but there were no previous version to uninstall.
    I attempted to login to Team Foundation Server (https://nnnnnn.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection) and receive the "TF31002: Unable to connect to ....
    I am able to login to the visualstudio.com site without any issue. 
    I have been working on this for days and no matter what I have read and tried, I cannot seem to get past this point.  
    I tried using a laptop I have and did the same steps as above with the same results.  
    It is obvious I am missing a step or that this process is longer possible.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

  • Does office 2013 install affect visual studio 2008

    had visual studio 2008 installed on the computer, 2 weeks ago I received office 2013 and now I get a PACKAGE LOAD FAILURE error

    Hi,
    Thanks for your post!
    lt difficult to detect the problem occurs because of Office 2013. You should give us more information.
    What's the details error of "PACKAGE LOAD FAILURE"?
    Frist, we should make sure if you can successfully install the VS:
    please use http://aka.ms/vscollect  to gather the installation logs. You will find vslogs.cab from %temp% folder. Please upload the file to 
    https://onedrive.live.com/   and share the link here.
    Second, try to collect logs when you open the VS. You can use Devenv.exe Command Line to collect logs for troubleshooting:
    Create a log file (‘Devenv.exe  /log’ ) on your drive. If this issue exists still, you could invest your log file to narrow down the issue and please share the log to OneDrive.
    More information about Devenv.exe Command Line, you could refer the following link:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ms241273(v=VS.80)
    Also, you can follow up the pvdg42 advice, try to repair the VS to see whether the problem can occur.
    Best Wishes!

  • Visual Studio 2008 with BizTalk 2009 Missing Assembly Reference - Developing under Windows7

    I'm having a similar issue to this....> http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/2df94010-5755-4982-a02d-81f8feb51fda/visual-studio-2008-with-biztalk-2009-missing-assembly-reference?forum=biztalkgeneral
    Prior to going to Win7, I was developing on a Win-XP machine. I used to delete the generated code and have VS generate it again, but no luck. I get errors in the Build, similar to what shows in the Message Assignment shape in the orc. It's complaining about
    a missing part of a Multi-part message.  Oh, and the Multi-part message is a schema created in VS2005/BizTalk2006 R2, which was created on a separate Win-XP machine.
    Just wondering if anyone has come up with a fix to this? The previously documented entry did not seem to have a solution.
    Thanks.

    Jeff,
    Do you see your_orchestration.odx.cs ?
    If you do Can you try as following:
    1. Take backup of whole solution
    2. Delete all .cs files associated with biztalk artifacts, like odx.cs, xsd.cs, btm.cs
    3. Open orchestration and in any one of the expression shape copy all statements.
    4. Click OK to close the Expression window.
    5. Build the solution. (you should get errors)
    6. Goto expression and paste code.
    7. Build
    This has worked for me in past. May be it will work for you too.

  • Sub report parameter prompt appears when running Visual Studio 2008 with Crystal Reports 2008

    Post Author: relliott
    CA Forum: .NET
    If I build a simple Crystal Report that contains another simple Crystal Sub Report, the report will print preview fine in Crystal 2008.  The problem happens when add this report to a Visual Studio 2008 Web Application Project and I build and debug the application, the Crystal Viewer is prompting the user for the parameter used to link the sub report to the main report.  This should never happen as the user is not supposed to see this parameter.  If I type in some value for this sub-report parameter prompt, the Crystal Report Viewer gives an error message about not finding the field.
    I was having the same problem in Vs2005 with Crystal 10 which is why I upgraded.  Business Object's official fix for this problem was published under their KB article number c2018840 and c2019047.  These hot fixes ended up causing general exception errors in Visual Studio so I scrapped these solutions.
    Support had me install SP0 for Crystal 2008 (which did not fix it).
    Any ideas?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Hi Bontrager,
    Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
    According to your description, I agree with pvdg42's suggestion, so I suggest you can try pvdg42's suggestion to install the version of
    Crystal Reports 10.5 to check this issue again.
    Reference:
    http://forums.asp.net/t/1236730.aspx?Which+CR+version+is+in+Visual+Studio+2008+
    In addition, since this forum is
    to discuss: Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio Editor. So if you have any issue about the
    Crystal Reports, I suggest you can ask the issue to the
    SAP Crystal Reports website:
    http://scn.sap.com/community/crystal-reports/content?filterID=contentstatus%5bpublished%5d~objecttype~objecttype%255bthread
    as pvdg42 pervious suggestion, it will be better support.

  • Crystal Report 10 in Visual Studio 2008

    Hello,
    Is there a formal process to make Visual Studio 2008 work with Crystal Report version 10? Are there specific files that need to be installed? Any problems to watch for. I currently tried to port Visual Studio 2003 solution that had working Crystal Reports 10 code and I have received some errors relating to ReportDocument (but there could be other). Anyway, maybe there are some basics I am missing.
    Thanks.

    When I double click on the report (.rpt) file, I am getting Microsoft Windows dialog with the following message:
          Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 has stopped working.  
          Windows can try to restart the program.
          --> Restart the program
         --> Debug the Program
    When I click Debug the Program, I see following:
       Unhandled exception at 0x18205950 in devenv.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation.
       Top 3 Call Stack lines at this point are:
       18205950()
       CRDesigner.dll!3e043d7a()
       [Frames below may be incorrect and/or missing, no symbols loaded for CRDesigner.dll]
       When I click Break in debug window I see:
       No symbols are loaded for any call stack frame. The source code cannot be displayed."
       Windows has triggered a breakpoint in devenv.exe.
       This may be due to a corruption of the heap, which indicates a bug in devenv.exe or any of the DLLs it has loaded.
    I do not see Crystal Reports 10.xx under reference list. How do I go back to the version of reports originally created in? If I am not able to work the Crystal Reports 2008, I want to go back to 10.xx and drop the idea of considering upgrade to Crystal Reports 2008.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

  • Keycode missing in Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008

    I just upgraded from Visual Studio 2005 Professional to Visual Studio 2008 Professional (with SP1 installed also).  Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 is listed as installed under the VS Help dialog, but no key code is shown.  And when I attempt to open a Crystal Report, I get a dialog saying 'Please wait while Windows configures Crystal Reports Basic', which eventually terminates with an 'Invalid Keycode' message.
    I've tried repairing the Visual Studio install, and even uninstalling and reinstalling the whole thing.  To no avail.
    Other facts: My VS 2005 version still works with its version of Crystal Reports.  I am running Vista Professional.  Looking in the registry, under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | VSNET | Keycodes | CR9 NET, I see a Type REG_SZ with a data value in the form xxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [6 chars-7 chars-26 chars].
    Help! How do I get Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 to work?

    Hi Elaine,
    Thanks for your response.  I do have versions of Visual Studio 2003 and Visual Studio 2005 on my machine, and the earlier versions of Crystal Reports worked with these versions.  In addition to the registry key I cited earlier (which I now understand is a VS 2003 version), there is an entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | 10.2 | Crystal Reports | KeyCodes | CR Ent.  I see that you are correct, and this corresponds to my VS 2005 installation (which still works).  However, there is NO entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | 10.5 (the CR  Basic for Visual Studio 2008 path you indicated).  There is an entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Business Objects | 10.5 | Crystal Reports, but it has only keys for ChartSupportPath, CommonFiles, DisablecheckForUpdates, and Path.
    The Windows\assembly folder has 25 files that are CrystalDecisions.xxx, version 10.5.3700.0.  This is consistent with my seeing 'Crystal Reports' listed as installed in VS 2008 Help.  But no KeyCode!
    I tried a complete uninstall and reinstall of VS 2008, without luck.  I can't clean my system of earlier verions of Crystal Reports, because I am still supporting a body of work that I did under VS 2005, and I can't convert all this stuff to 2008 -- at least until I have a fully working VS 2008 suite.  After this experience, I fear that if I were to uninstall an earlier version, i might never get it back!
    I've spend quite a few hours on this with no luck, so any help would be enormously appreciated.

  • .ard file not created - visual studio 2008

    Hi, I'm creating addon installer for SAP B1 2007 SP1 PL05 running on Windows Server 2008 virtual machine. Visual Studio 2008 and B1DE 2.0 are installed on a Windows 7 virtual machine.
    I followed the steps to create new project using SAP B1 AddOnInstaller .NET Wizard. The AddOnRegDataGen.bat ran automatically when the wizard finished, and I also manually ran the .bat file, but in the bin folder only these 4 files were created:
    Installer.exe, Installer.vshost.exe, Installer.vshost.exe.manifest, Installer.xml
    The .exe file is not using the name I gave to the Installation project, and .ard file is missing.
    In AddonRegDataGen.bat the version is "20090901" - it only contains numbers, so this could not be the problem.
    Please help!

    Hi Yi,
    Could you take a look at AddonRegDataGen.bat under AddOnRegDataGenFile folder?
    Can you find AddOnRegDataGen.exe path as indicated in the 1st line of AddonRegDataGen.bat?
    Typically it is under:
    "C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One SDK\Tools\AddOnRegDataGen\AddOnRegDataGen.exe"
    Please be sure SDK component installed and correct the batch file with the right path of AddOnRegDataGen.exe.
    Then run the batch manually. Or you can create ARD with AddOnRegDataGen.exe directly.
    Kind Regards, Yatsea

  • Launching VB6 Editor after installing Visual Studio 2013 results in "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio..."

    I have had various versions of Visual Studio installed beside Visual Basic 6.0 Enterprise for some time with no problems, most recently Visual Studio 2012 Premium.
    I recently installed Visual Studio 2013 Premium, and now every time I open VB6 I get a dialog that says "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013" that shows a progress bar. After it finishes (30 seconds or
    so), it launches again and again and finally VB6 will open. This happens with each instance of VB6, regardless if I've already done it once and never run VS2013 in between.
    If I cancel the dialog, I get this error message in a dialog: "Error 1712. One or more of the files required to restore your computer to its previous state could not be found. Restoration will not be possible." Several more "Please wait"...
    dialogs will appear and if I continue to cancel, eventually I'll get the VB6 editor. It appear to work fine despite the error messages.
    It seems to me that the VS2013 installer flagged some dll's or other files to be rolled back whenever starting VB6. It doesn't appear to be necessary, and I'd like to avoid playing the "Please wait" wack-a-cancel-button game before launching each
    instance of VB6 (or waiting several minutes for no reason). So how do I fix this?
    Note: I've seen something similar happen in Outlook on a different PC when upgrading from 2010 to 2013. The same sort of "Please wait"... dialog would appear each time I opened Outlook. Judging by the "similar" questions that popped up when
    entering this forum post, I'd say this is a general problem with upgrading older versions or installing newer versions of major Microsoft software side-by-side.
    /* Don Reynolds */

    I found the answer!
    I was having the exact same issue, and I was search for a solution and I happened across the following thread: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f4b0fd38-f4f9-41ea-bd8d-834203a175d2/building-visual-studio-2010-project-triggers-please-wait-while-windows-configures-visual-studio?forum=vssetup&prof=required
    Scroll a small bit down, and there is a post by Barry Wang explaining that you need to use event viewer to find out what is missing. Anyway, I opened event viewer, then open VS 6, then hit refresh in the event viewer (under Windows Logs -> Application)
    and saw a warning message from MsiInstaller. It gave me the following message:
    Detection of product '{9C593464-7F2F-37B3-89F8-7E894E3B09EA}', feature 'Visual_Studio_Professional_x86_enu', component '{E3FF99AA-78B9-4A06-8A74-869E9F65E1FE}' failed.  The resource 'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\URTInstallPath_GAC\' does
    not exist.
    I opened an elevated command prompt, I navigated to the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework folder and verified that 'URTInstallPath_GAC' didn't exist, and then I did "md URTInstallPath_GAC".
    Closed and reopened VS 6, and it instantly opened - no "Please wait" message.
    Now this may or may not be the same problem you are having (problem is - I have had it happen on two separate computers now with VS 6 and VS 2013 installed), but it should point you in the right direction. In fact, you should be able to use the Event Viewer
    for anytime the "Please wait" message shows up for any application, and then once there find out what is really missing.

  • Unable to open MVC project in Visual Studio 2008

    I started working on an Asp.net MVC website using Visual Web Developer Express 2008 a while ago. Just recently, I managed to get my hands on a copy of Visual Studio 2008 Professional (through
    DreamSpark ). I installed the Service Pack, and also the MVC2 files for Visual Studio.
    However, now I can't open my project anymore. When I try to open the solution in Visual Studio, it tells me that the project type is not supported. Does this mean that I have to resort to using VWD Express again? Is there perhaps some way that I can edit
    the project file so that it will load and compile correctly?
    Note: I installed MVC2 through the Web Platform Installer, and it says that it installed successfully. However, I notice that MVC references in my unit-test project don't seem to be resolved either - is this perhaps because MVC2 isn't actually installed
    properly?

  • Crystal Report 2008 in Visual Studio 2008

    Greetings all,
    I faced a problem here when trying to implement a web application on a Windows Server 2003 Release 2 64bit. The web application is developed using Visual studio 2008 on a development PC running on Windows XP 32bit. The application basically will pass some parameters to the crystal report before loading it for viewing. When this application is implemented on one of our client's server which is running on Win2003 32bit, it was perfectly fine. However, when this same application is implemented on a windows 2003 r2 server x64, it somehow prompted an error on top of the page (just before the report viewer object) of the below message:
    This field name is not known. Error in File [temp_location_of_rpt]: Error in formula '{Vendors.company_code}={?Company_Code} and ' This field name is not known.
    As the application was working fine running under win2003 r2 x32, I configured the x64 server to enable the 32bit IIS mode on the server by running the below command:
    cscript.exe adsutil.vbs set W3SVC/AppPools/Enable32BitAppOnWin64 u201Ctrueu201D
    Then proceeded with reinstallation of 32bit .net framework which surprisingly able to run the web application just fine (including viewing the report). When I deactivate the 32bit on the IIS (as the client needs to run the IIS on 64bit mode), the error appears again stating the formula error and field name not known when trying to load the report.
    Anyone faced similar to this problem or any gurus and expers here can help? Would appreciate all help and guidance.

    Hi Brian,
    I did try to create a report without any parameters passing through the web application, in which merely to load the report that connects to the database and grab records for viewing but to my amazement, the rows of record displayed is max up to 1 row (even there are many rows in the database table). I am curious if the problem lies in the connectivity issue between crystal and oracle. Now I am wondering if there is anyone out there who manage to get the web application (visual studio) interfaced successfully with crystal report to load data directly from oracle running on IIS 64bit? Or even any other database engine where the web application is running on IIS 64bit mode?
    For the time being, I am re-constructing the report to use XSD for the intention to pass the data through dataset from the web application to crystal report. It's a time consuming but I guess that's the only way to work around it.
    Would appreciate if anyone have any leads to get the crystal report working on IIS x64 mode.
    Thanks.

    I use both Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 on same PC. I can not work with dbf files (format foxpro2x, dbase IV) in VS 2005 and VS 2008.
    Q1. Work Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008 with database files - dbf (version foxpro2x, dbaseIV)? I get error -
    Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer
    Failed to load database information
    or with dbf files work only Full version of Crystal Reports?
    Q2. How re-install Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008. In setup Add/Remove features not exist Crystal Reports check box. I only Repair/reinstall all Visual Studio but after reinstall same error
    Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer
    Failed to load database information
    3. When I can open sample project with Crystal Reports which use Crystal Reports (dbf file) this error is displayed:
    Crystal Report Viever
    Failed to load database information
    Details: The database DLL "crdb_p2bxbse.dlll" could not be loaded.
    4. I reinstal Crystal Report in Visual Studio 2005 - same error
    5. I apply hotfix Crystal Reports for .NET 2005 - SP 1 - same error
    Thank You
    Ludek

    Hi Ludek,
    1-For dbase file to work you need have permission on database files for IIS as well as user accessing the database.
    2-For re-install you need to insert the CD of visual studio setup then do custom install and then try to choose crystal reports for re-installing
    3-The old viewer might cause the problem. In this case can you try connecting to a blank dbase file.
    and for such issues we have a special forum [here|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;
    Thanks,

  • Integrating Crystal Report 2008 Developer with Visual Studio 2008 Standard

    I have Crystal Reports 2008 Developer version 12.0.0.683 on my computer. I also have Visual Studio 2008 Standard. I know the standard edition of VS 2008 does not have the bundled crystal reports, but since I bought the full version of CR 2008 separately, I figure I should be able to use CR within VS 2008. The problem I am facing is integrating Crystal Reports with Visual Studio, so I can create reports from within visual studio.
    Crystal Reports was installed first and then Visual Studio. As per suggestions on this and other forums, I repaired my installation of Crystal Reports, but that did not help. I then ran Visual Studio integration manager, but when I run it, it only detects Visual Studio as the currently installed IDE, but does not detect CR 2008. I downloaded service pack 2 for CR, but have not installed it yet. I do not want to install it if it is not going to help. I would also like to avoid uninstalling my copy of CR if at all possible.
    I am a newbie at development in visual studio. Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Rajib

    Don't want to go against what Jason said as it may be correct - if we go strictly by the documentation provided (sorry Jason, Dan says...). However, here is something to try;
    Uninstall CR. Look for any left overs; c:\program files\business objects\... and delete all of that.
    Look in the registry for HKLM\software\business objects and remove the business objects entry.
    Download CR 2008 from here:
    http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx
    That is a trial version and I believe it is already at SP 1. Use your keycode to install. Once this is done, you should have the ability to use CR in .NET. I'd recommend you do apply sp 2 now also.
