Umbraco installer wizard not showing up - c#

First time trying to install Umbraco. I followed the instructions on how to install Umbraco 8 with NuGet. (https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/Getting-Started/Setup/Install/install-umbraco-with-nuget)
But I'm having issues with getting the Umbraco installer to show up. After starting without debugging (Ctrl+F5) I just get the Chrome error page for ERRCONNECTIONRESET. It does seem some resources are missing in my project solution. Tried cleaning and building the solution over and over, but no luck.
I'm using Visual Studio 2019 16.9.3 with .NET Framework 4.7.2 (also tried it with 4.8)
Thanks in advance.

Please take a look at Paul Seal's video about how to install Umbraco v8, hopefully, this will help you do your installation successfully.
PS: From the error message you have shared, I can't be sure what is missing but if you follow Paul Seal's steps, which are the default Umbraco installation steps, you should be able to create an Umbraco website.

The issue was that Visual Studio navigated to the HTTPS variant. When I navigated to the HTTP variant, it works.

Creating an ASP.NET Core project

I want to create an Asp.net Core project with Visual Studio 2017 Community but the Solutions explorer says that I have (0 projects).
I tried selecting an empty project, web application, web application (Model-View-Controller) but the Solution explorer still displays (0 projects).
When I go-to Debug I see the "Attach to Process" option. There is no option to start of course since I have no projects.
What could be the issue?
Have you installed everything correctly? To verify this, open a normal cmd and just type 'dotnet'
Only if the command runs, printing out information about how to use dotnet, you're good to go.
Have you installed the correct .NET SDK? What version of it? Make sure the version is compatible with the version of visual studio you have installed.
Follow this link for step by step setup instructions:
https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/getting-started-with-net-core-on-visual-studio-2017/
This could be the same problem, but I had the same issue during College once but this time I had the support for the web components, so I went back to the installation and repaired it. It downloaded the missing files and it worked again and it took a while.
Let me know if that works or not.

How to get intellisense in Visual Studio Code for Unity functions names?

I am following a tutorial about Unity and I see that the instructor has intellisense when writes the method's name.
However I have only intellisense with classes and variables, I mean Unity classes like Rigidbody and my own variables.
I have also read:
Autocompletion not working in Visual studio
How to enable intellisense in Visual Studio 2017 for Unity
Old question, but I had the same problem just recently.
There must have been an issue in your Assembly-CSharp.csproj or project-name.sln files. Most likely to be the .csproj file. If you take a look at it, you will see various references to .dll files.
You can tell Unity (my version: v2019.2.20f1) to create these for you by enabling Edit > Preferences > Generate all .csproj files.
1. Delete both files.
2. Enable .csproj file generation.
3. Double click on a script in Unity.
This fixed my issue.
I would really like to clear things up a bit for everyone trying to get Intellisense working with Visual Studio Code.
First of all I am writing this for Unity 2019.4.14 (edit: also for 2020.3 and 2021.3).
These are the things you MUST do for this to work:
You need Visual Studio Code (duh)
You need .NET SDK. I don't think it matters which version, latest is the best I guess. Make sure you install the SDK, not the runtime.
Check if you have .NET SDK installed by typing dotnet in the VSCode terminal.
You also need The .NET Framework Dev Pack because otherwise VSCode is going to be throwing this error:
The reference assemblies for .NETFramework,Version=v4.7.1 were not found. To resolve this, install the Developer Pack (SDK/Targeting Pack) for this framework version or retarget your application.
In VSCode search for the 'C# for Visual Studio Code' extension and install it
In Unity go to Package Manager and install Visual Studio Code Editor. This will enable Unity to generate proper project files for VSCode. (might be already installed)
In Unity go to Edit -> Preferences -> External Tools and choose VSCode from the dropdown (could be listed as code.cmd) and after you choose it tick all the checkboxes you want in the Generate .csproj files for section. I checked Embedded Packages, Local Packages, and Packages from unknown sources. Click 'Regenerate project files'
Open any C# file from Unity and you should be good to go. (you might need to restart VSCode after regenerating project files in order for this to work)
Now, what about Unity Code Snippets and Debugger for Unity extensions? Well these are useful helper extensions but they have nothing to do with Intellisense. The first is for quickly typing common Unity patterns and the second is for showing Unity Debug warnings and errors as you type instead of saving and going back to Unity and reading the console.
Hope this was of any help.
p.s.
One more note: Visual Studio Code depends on the solution files we generate through Unity for Intellisense to work. This is important because you have to add the entire project folder to VSCode workspace and not just Assets folder or your Scripts folders. If you add only the Assets folder to VSCode it won't be aware of those solution (.sln) files. If you open scripts through Unity it will probably work regardless.
Although the answer by Alex Myers is helps, its not 100% right. Unity Snippets does give you some snippets, and the illusion of typeahead, it's not actually intellisense.
For true intellisense you need to:
install dotnet on your system (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/dotnet) and,
install the dotnet extension for VSCode (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.csharp)
More information can be found here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/dotnet
You can test you have dotnet installed by typing dotnet into the terminal within VSCode.
Note In the image below how I get a full method signature, reference counts, and the yellow hint globe. These are only available when using dotnet + extension (and not available when using the snippets)
Note: my solution does not solve intellisense to function names, but this was the first question that come in fixing intellisense more generally in VSCode.
I needed to update the VSCode package in unity.
In Unity, click Window, then Package Manager, then look for Visual Studio Code Editor. Expand it by pressing triangle, and upgrade to the latest version (for me, it was 1.2.0. I restarted VSCode and it worked.
v1.1.4 had a bug that caused this problem, and was not fixed for about 3 months. It is still the default package installed with a new default project, so you have to change this package version to 1.2.0 in every new project, until they update it.
Check out the guide for Unity Development with VS Code. They recommend a few extensions:
Unity Snippets
Debugger for Unity
Unity Tools
I believe the Unity Snippets extension is what you are looking for.
For anyone having the same problem on a Mac, try setting this value in your .vscode/settings.json (or in the user settings instead of the workspace settings)
"omnisharp.useGlobalMono": "always"
For me just in Unity, Edit/Preferences/External Script Editor, and changed it to My_Install_Location\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe (maybe hit Regenerate Project Files)
Sorry, I don't have good English, but I'll show you what worked for me.
I opened the C # script in Visual Studio Code and looked for the Assembly-CSharp.csproj file, then, on line 16, I changed the following:
<TargetFrameworkVersion> v4.5 </TargetFrameworkVersion>
For:
<TargetFrameworkVersion> v4.5.1 </TargetFrameworkVersion>
This solved the Intellisense issue.
Intellisense is a pure workflow of .Net Environment. So, you need to have .Net 'Developer pack' (not Runtime) installed on your system as it installs all three necessary components below:
.Net framework
.Net Target pack
.net SDK
reference link: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/visual-studio-sdks
It is directly installed to a system admin-accessible path, so no need setting it up. Now, you have to tell VS Code which .Net version to use (whichever you have installed).
Your Unity project will have these two files in the root directory:
Assembly-CSharp.csproj
Assembly-CSharp-Editor.csproj
In these both files search for line (probably 16):
<TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.8</TargetFrameworkVersion>
Edit version that you had just installed (I had 4.8). Then reopen VS Code. Now everything should work fine.
I found another solution since none of the other solutions were working for me and i was searching for hours.(07/08/2021):
I got the feeling i found the solution for a lot of people since i reinstalled windows recently and simply downloaded everything needed to start without other problems.
I got the same error with .NET, .NET Core or .NET Framework, here are some screenshots of the errors:
In the error output, it says to install the Developer Pack for this framework version. You can find the version in the .csproj file:
By installing the .NET Framework of this version on the dotnet microsoft site: .NET Framework download list
i fixed the error after reloading VSCode and got my Intellisense working for Unity.
TLDR:
My fix was too install .NET Framework version 4.7.1
If you still can't enable IntelliSense, make sure you have VS Code opened in the same directory as the .sln file (I had mine opened deeper in the Assets before).

Though the question is 2 years old, the problem pops up occasionally, just like happened to me.
I had the issue myself, so this one is possibly the first that should be checked.
"Install .NET Framework 4.6 Targeting Pack"
WHY?
First of all, I work with dotnet core, not the standard, so I don't have standard libraries installed on my computer. When I started trying Unity, and VS Code with it, this was the missing part I wasn't aware of.
When I hit the issue, I searched the net a while and see this question. Took me another while to notice this framework sentence in "Enabling code completion" section of VS Code and Unity page. So I tried and now I am happy I tried.
Just don't forget you need to restart at least VS Code to get the intellisense working.
PS: Framework version may, and will most possibly, be changed depending on what year we are in, and which versions we use. So if "4.6" is not working then you probably need another version.
PS2: If it is Mac you are looking for, follow the same link above and find the same section I mentioned above to get a link for .NET SDK.
Follow these steps:
Go into your Unity project.
Go to Edit.
Go to Projects preferences.
Go to External tools.
In line "External Script Editor" you have to change to "Visual Studio Cummunity 2019..."
then it should work.

Sitecore Courier set up issues

I am trying to configure a local instance of Sitecore Courier tool in order to compare and get the differences between master and web databases. From the online tutorial it's seems pretty easy to configure but when I'm trying to run the WebRunner project from solution (https://github.com/adoprog/Sitecore-Courier) I'm getting some weird errors in the console.
Also did the extra configs from here: https://libraries.io/github/adoprog/Sitecore-Courier
Is there someone who can help please?
Cheers
Looks like Sitecore Courier uses C# 6 language features. That is why you are getting build errors. And Editbin.exe could not patch executable that does not exist. Try to install latest C# compiler via Nuget to fix this problem:
Install-Package Microsoft.Net.Compilers
or update you Visual Studio to 2015+ version.

Visual studio code auto-complete

I have just downloaded unity and saw that now it supports Visual studio code, I downloaded it and made it the default editor.
After trying to edit a script, it prompted me to download c# extension and I did, but there is no auto-complete for unity functions. How can I get that? I'm on Mac.
Any help is appreciated.
Maybe too late, but for future comers ...
There is an extension now for visual studio code called MonoBehaviour Snippets by Rachod Petchpho.
Press Ctrl+shift+x in the IDE to open extensions panel then search for MonoBehaviour Snippets, install and reload the IDE, now you will find all the autocomplete for the function names and objects just like MonoDevelop.
I had the same situation and I bang my head to the wall for days. There was no solution on the net as there are few people using Unity on linux with Visual Studio Code. I finally removed mono and went to their site and downloaded the Visual Studio build (even though we use Visual Studio Code). Then volaaa. Auto complete and suggestions related to Unity functions were there. Of course after installing the necessary extensions.
https://www.mono-project.com/download/vs/
I had the same problem with Unity + VS Code combo.
I have found an extension called Unity CodeSnippets
I highly recommend to download it. This is much better than any of other snippets collection for VSCode.

You can use the unity integration plugin:
https://code.visualstudio.com/Docs/runtimes/unity
Follow the instructions to get set up. It seems a lot of things to do but I think that's the best one.
If you still hit the issue even by using that plugin then follow this issue at their github page.
https://forum.unity.com/threads/cant-get-vscode-to-work-properly-with-unity.538224/
there are people that found a workaround.
unityoracle user said:
"This issue is that Unity Editor expects the file used to launch VSCode to have a specific name. "
and:
"Specifically, creating a symlink named "code" that opens VSCode fixed this issue"
for me, it works by downloading .NET Framework 4.7.1 Developer Pack
here
here is the link
Follow the steps from https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/other/unity
Then in unity editor, set VS Code as the default Script editor:
Edit -> Preferences -> External Tools -> External Script Editor
Right below, set Embedded packages and Local packages to true
i used these methods and it worked
Change in External Tools: Edit -> Preferences :choose " Visual Studio Code"
Open file : Assembly-CSharp-Editor in your project folder and Download the Framework Version that is the same as the version in this file EX: v4.7.1
Open VScode tool - Settings - >code lens and tick.

I installed an older version of c# vscode extension, version 1.16.21, and it is working.

Visual Studio ASP.NET Template Incomplete (MVC)

I got really weird problem. I am starting to learn MVC but my ASP.NET template seems to be incomplete and does not support MVC at all. It doesn't matter which version of .NET Framework I choose. Look:
What is more weird, my ASP.NET MVC 4 Template from previous version of visual studio works fine, without any issues (I can add views, controllers etc). BUT ONLY if I choose .NET Framework lower than 4.5.2.
What I already did:
I tried command: devenv /installvstemplates
I did repair installation of visual studio and its updates
I uninstalled all addons and extensions
What I do not want to do:
I dont want to clean reinstall Visual Studio
What I think I can do to fix this:
copy cache from someone and paste it to my \Common7\IDE, but I do not
have access to working cache files.
I would really appreciate your help guys.
/edit (I am sorry for my mistake with adding answer)
So I tried to fix it as i didn't receive any answer, I tried many things from google results, many pointing to this site but nothing worked.
I uninstalled visual studio, cleaned registry, used /uninstall /force with 2012, 2013 and all updates isos with no luck.
I tried this solution:
Can't create new MVC5 project or any other ASP .NET projects in Visual Studio 2013
but it didn't work either.
Does anyone has any idea? I will give you some reward if your answer help me.
I would really appreciate anything. Point me to some direction.
ONLY MVC 5 doesn't work, no templates are shown (in one asp.net
template) and if I download mvc 5 template from the web, or convert
my existing mvc 4 project to mvc 5 it stops showing "add controller,
add view options"
All MVC 4 projects and templates are working without any issues at all.
/edit 2
=== WORKAROUND ===
If someone tries to resolve this issue, basically I coudn't do it, but I found workaround which is ugly and simple:
Deleted every single extension AND every VS Update
Uninstalled Visual Studio
Uninstalled it again using /force method
Cleared its every trace and the registry traces I was able to found
Used TuneUp utilities to clear broken registry keys
Uninstalled SQL Server 2014
Uninstalled everything that was related to Visual Studio (Web Essentials, .Net Frameworks, Command Tools etc), check in Ccleaner,
it will be much faster.
Installed Visual Studio with Update 3 and... It was broken right after installation, missing files errors
I repaired the installation and everything seemed to work but... localization, language files didn't work, caused visual
studio to
show errors or simply hang.
I tried to reinstall language pack but I received error "this language is already installed". I couldn't uninstall it
either. I finally added language files manually:
in VS folder in Program Files searched for '1033' and 'en' folders
opened my acronis partition backup
added to every directory where one of the two folders was found, folder equivalents of my language '10xx' or 'xx'
WARNING: If you won't do it for EVERY folder, you will get assembly missing error, or your visual studio will have spikes (especially in .aspx files). Don't copy paste it all at once either cuz if you place localization files for assemblies, extensions you don't have, it will cause errors too.
TIP: If you don't have backup, simply take this files from someone else, they should generally work, no matter which update VS of the other person have.
Its unfortunate that no one had better answer for me but I do hope that this will at least help guys in similar situation.
