Hi, I just installed the program "Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2013", I installed it using the on screen instructions successfully, it asked
me to restart the computer, I did and was very excited to use the software but when i opened it said that "An error occurred while starting for the first time. Please restart Microsoft Visual Studio." , I restarted the program and still the same
error occurs, I restarted the computer still did not work, I re installed the software like 10 times (no extradition), I tried to press the repair button still did not work after repair, I installed the update patch and still did not fix, I restarted my internet
and still did not work, i called Microsoft support team and no response (too expensive to call again) and still nothing worked.

Hi,
And from the log message you offered, you get the following error message:
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System._ComObject' to interface type 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsProfileDataManager'
The
IVsProfileDataManager provides access to the profile manager and to programmatic control of settings. The error message turns out that you get a broken registration for IVsProfileDataManager.
Do you get any error message during the Visual Studio installation? You can use the
collect.exe tool to collect VS installation logs and upload the vslogs.cab file in the %temp% folder to the SkyDrive, then post back the link.
Thanks.

Database connection error in Visual Studio 2013

I am using Visual Studio 2013 and have installed MS SQL Server 2014. I am trying to generate my database from a model (edmx) but I get the following error: Cannot
connect to <Database>. An incompatible SQL Server version was detected (Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Tool.Sqleditor)
In the edmx.sql file, is written:
-- Entity Designer DDL Script for SQL Server 2005, 2008, 2012 and Azure
I can see that 2014 version is missing from this generated file, and seems that the program tries to connect to the 2012 version .. how can I avoid this and manage visual studio tu use the 2014 version of MS SQL Server? Thanks in advance
I already updated the SQL Server Data Tools to the newest version.

Hello,

Library not registered error in Visual Studio 2013.

Whenever I attempt to build a solution, build multiple projects, or even run a program (with debugging) in visual studio 2013, I receive the error below.
"Library not registered. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8002801D (TYPE_E_LIBNOTREGISTERED))"
I have attempted to fix this by repairing my Visual Studio installation, but without success.
I believe the issue to be with Visual Studio itself, though, because this happens with every solution I have tried it with.
Any assistance in resolving this issue would be most appreciated.

Hi ndowney,
Based on your issue, could you please tell me if you install some other tools on your machine before you get the ""Library not registered" error?
(1) If yes, please you disable or un-install these tools and then build solution/project check this issue again.
(2)If no, to check if the issue is related to the VS IDE, please refer the following steps to check this error message.
(2.1) I suggest you could try the following commands to check if it is helpful.
a. Run devenv /Safemode to see if you can apply it correctly. This can eliminate the possibility that third party Add-ins or packages are causing problems.
b. Run devenv /Resetsettings to eliminate the cause of corrupted settings.
c. Run devenv /ResetSkipPkgs in Command Prompt.
If above still cannot work, try use this command again: devenv /resetsuerdata
(2.2) If the above suggestion still could not help you, maybe you will need to re-install the VS2013 and then check this issue again.
If you have any latest message about your issue, please tell me.

Error during visual studio 2013 intallation on windows 8.1

After installing windows sdk 8.1, I've decided to install visual studio 2013,when it reached 70% of the installation process it stopped and told me that I have vGraphic data error(data redundancy) what is that??? and how can I fix it,this is the logs file:
vslogs

I found numerous instances of "Error 0x80070017: Failed attempt to copy payload" in your install log.
For the error code “-2147024873” which is 0x80070017, it means “Data error (cyclic redundancy check)”. I recommend you run the Chkdsk.exe tool to check
the disk for errors:
Click
Start, and then click Run.
Type
cmd in the Open box, and then click OK.
At the command prompt, type
Chkdsk /f, and then press ENTER.
Press Y when you are prompted to check the disk next time that the system restarts.
Close all applications and restart the computer.
Note: During the restart process, Windows checks the disk for errors and then starts.

You need to post your issue with Windows 10 TP in the Feedback app. Breaking changes in a prerelease OS are not uncommon and have occurred before, IIRC.
You can also try to repair the failing applications.

Add WSDL to Visual Studio Project - Please help !

Hi,
In this address there is explained how to add wsdl class to our project (sheet 7)
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c0123164-9b30-2b10-a086-b8a7f973b3e1
However, after "Add New Item" = SAP Connector Proxy, Visual Studio is not asked me a question to select the u201CWSDL file from SAP IFRu201D. It operates this phase automatically. How can I do this manually?
Briefly, how can I add my wsdl to visual studio project?

Deployment Error from Visual Studio 2013

I have been publishing my Azure web role and worker roles once or twice per week for the last year. 3 days ago I began getting this when publishing from VS:
8:44:19 AM - Checking for Remote Desktop certificate...
8:44:21 AM - Applying Diagnostics extension.
8:45:13 AM - The server encountered an internal error. Please retry the request.
Always the same three lines. I have tried 20x over the last 3 days. The only posts I can find that sound related deal with intermittent network issues. Since this has been going on for 3 days and I see no service issues listed on
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/status/, I do not think my problem is related to a network issue.
I am able to successfully package from VS, then publish via the Azure web portal.
Does anyone know how I can troubleshoot problems publishing? Thanks.

Sowmya,
I opened a support ticket but was told since it did not have to due with billing that they cannot help since I have not paid for technical support. Is there any way I can troubleshoot the problem that I am having? I generally solve things myself,
but since I am not getting any indication of what the problem is, I do not know where to look. Again I can manually package the solution, upload to BLOB storage, and update my cloud services through the control panel. So it is a fine workaround for now,
but it takes much longer than simply publishing from VS2013 which is what I had always done in the past. But now I get this "an internal error has occurred". It is hard to believe someone coded the system to even give such a useless message.
Any other options?
Thanks,
Denis

I can't install multi language pack - english for visual studio 2013 update 3

Error : Microsoft portable library multi-targeting language pack - enu element not fount
Error : Microsoft visual studio 2013 performance collection tools - ENU package failed.
I have downloaded visual studio 2013 in some other language. I wanted to change it to English so I downloaded multi language pack- English and installed. I came up with the above error. Please help me. Thanks in advance.

I don't know of a reason you posted your question in a Visual Basic forum. You should probably find a Visual Studio forum to post your question in.
However I've never tried to do what you want to do. But maybe these links can assist you.
Microsoft Language Interface Packs (LIPs) and Visual Studio
"When you install different language versions of Visual Studio on the same computer, you can only switch languages between matching editions. For example, if you have an English Express Edition installed, a German Express Edition installed, and a Professional
Edition installed, you can only switch languages for the Express Editions, not for the Professional Edition.
Starting with Visual Studio 2012, the Professional, Premium, and Ultimate products use a unified language pack. To install more than one language version of these products, you must install a full language product first and then install one or more language
packs." |||||||||| "NOTE: The Professional, Premium, and Ultimate products starting in Visual Studio 2012 don't support installing multiple language versions of the full language product on the same computer. After you install one
full language product, you must add language versions by using language packs. You can still install multiple full language products of the Express editions on the same computer."

Help with C# Errors (Visual Studio 2013)

Hello, I am working on a console application in Visual C#, with Visual Studio 2013. I have been experiencing two specific errors several times, but I am just beginning to learn C#, so I do not know the cause of these errors or how to fix them.
I am using a console class (Console.WriteLine) and it is telling me that "The name 'Console' does not exist in the current context." I do not know what this means, or what is causing it. Because it is referring to the word Console as a "name"
I think I may be incorrectly using the term "Console," but I feel like I have no way of knowing so.
I am also receiving an error telling me that "A using clause must precede all other elements defined in the namespace except extern alias declarations." Again, I have no idea what this means. If anyone could provide some help or explain to
me what is causing these errors, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Hello,
Welcome to MSDN forum.
But your issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses
the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
Because this is an issue with Oracle data access on VS, I would post issues to Oracle forum:
https://community.oracle.com/community/developer/english/oracle_database/windows_and_.net for better support.

Sharepoint 2010 Remote Development using Visual Studio 2013 Connection Errors

I have a customer who is using a custom skinned site developed in Sharepoint 2010.
I am trying to debug a webpart that is not loading on a page.
My Environment:
Local Laptop running Win 7 64 Enterprise, Visual Studio 2013, and Sharepoint Designer 2010.
I connect to the customers network via VPN and use RDP to access the server. I have Admin rights to the server.
Everything that I have read indicates that Web Part dev has to be done in VS. When I try to connect using server explorer, VS kicks back a 'Server Can not be found' error.
I have tried using the computer name, the app url listed in SP Central Admin, the IP address of the box, and the actual URL of the site. However, VS can not connect to the server.
I have done some homework on connecting VS to a remote machine:

The last connection article is confusing because one of the SO answers indicates that you do not need to have SP2010 installed.
I have been doing lots of reading on SP structure, and it seems to jump all over the place. (Or at least my research does). I have been reading this Ebook:
SharePoint 2010 Development with Visual Studio 2010
http://books.google.com/books/about/SharePoint_2010_Development_with_Visual.html?id=TVKICs4vHTcC
My questions are:
Why cant I connect to the Server if I connected through VPN which would inherently make the server a local network computer?
Do I need to have VS installed on the actual server? I read that I can install Sharepoint Foundation locally and this will give me access to the server in VS.
Do I need to have the full version of VS installed in order to use Remote Tools?
For the Web Parts:
Why cant I see the web parts in Sharepoint Designer? I take it they are exclusively designed in VS, which brings me back to the questions above.
In Sharepoint Designer, I can see a custom view that was created from a custom list. I want to add that list to the page where the web part isnt working. When I open up the Edit Interface, and try to find that list, it does not display in the 'Lists and Libraries'
menu

Hello,
As per your description, remote deployment is not possible for server side code in sharepoint so if you are using server object model then you won't be able to debug or deploy your solution from visual studio.
VS is not required to installed on UAT/prod server but you need sharepoint along with visual studio in same development machine to develop any custom webpart.
Once you deploy your custom webpart on site then you will be able to see that webpart in webpart gallery and that gallery is also available in designer so it means you can also add your custom webpart from designer to any page.
Correct me if i misunderstood you

Error installing SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013

Hi
I am trying to install SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013 and am getting the following error
This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package.
I am running
Windows 8.1 x64
SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition x64
Visual Studio 2013 Professional
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Biztalk Developer

Could you please check if Windows Installer service is running and is in automatic startup mode.
The other thing is, if you’re running an x64-based SQL instance (64-bit), make sure to select “New Instance” on the Installation Type page, and NOT “Add features to an existing instance”.

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.
