FYI, I installed MySql Installer 5.7.21.0 based on developer option. I have Visual Studio 2015. I created a ASP.net MVC Project and I can see 'MySQL Website Configuration' on top of the Solution Explorer window. But when I click on it, the system shows following message:
"Could not load file or assembly 'Mysql.ConnectorInstaller
version=6.10.5.0, Version=6.10.5.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d' or one of its dependencies.
System cannot find the file specified"
Is there any solution to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help
I downgraded MySQL Connector 6.10.5 to version 6.8.8 and the problem is solved!
The issue is because of Visual Studio Version. Connector which is available on MySQL Installer community 5.7.21.0 full pack is configured for Visual Studio 2017. So you have to downgrade your connector to lower version if you want to work with Visual Studio 2015.
So you do not need to reinstall full MySQL package. Just uninstall MySQL Connector from Windows Program and features and install version 6.8.8 from the following link.

I found many topics regarding this issue but it looks like it none of them can help me. I'm trying to install DotNetCore.1.0.1-VS2015Tools.Preview2.0.3.exe without Visual Studio installed - basically it's our build machine. When I run executable I get: "This product requires Visual Studio 2015 ..." . I've already tried to use SKIP_VSU_CHECK=1 and it didn't help.
Context:
We have TeamCity server build agents hosted on different machine and we don't want to install Visual Studio there. One of our project is *.xproj project and it cannot be built due to the following error: " error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\DotNet\Microsoft.DotNet.Props" was not found. Confirm that the path in the <Import> declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.
What I found so far is that I should install Vs2015Tools in order to build it. I have already installed .NET core SDK.
When I add new WebForm to my project, I get the following error:
Could not load file or assembly
'Microsoft.VisualStudio.JSLS,Version=14.0.0.0 , Culture=neutral ,
PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies.the system
can not find the file specified.
I tried to create new website project and I tried to reinstall VS 2015 but this did not help.
This is a known bug with Visual Studio 2015. The officially-endorsed solution from Microsoft has been posted on MSDN:
If the “Tools for Universal Windows Apps Development” are still installed:
Go to Programs and Features, select Visual Studio 2105, click Change.
In Visual Studio setup, click Modify.
Deselect the feature “Tools for Universal Windows App Development”
Select “Tools for Universal Windows App Development” again, and click Update.
If you have already uninstalled the “Tools for Universal Windows Apps Development”:
Reinstall “Tools for Universal Windows App Development”
Or take the following steps to reinstall the JavaScript project system and language service:
a. Download the installer for your edition of Visual Studio, e.g.,
vs_community.exe.
b. Open a CMD window, and run the following command:
vs_community.exe /modify /installselectableitems JavaScript_Hidden
/passive
A temporary solution:
Shut down Visual Studio and reinstall the following package from the DVD or ISO:
x:\packages\JavaScript_LanguageService\JavaScript_LanguageService.msi
A better solution, endorsed by Microsoft, has been posted.
Remove the update received for visual studio TypeScript on 11/08/2015. it seems to be buggy. After removing TypeScript update, my VS is working fine ;-)
and if you try to reinstall x:\packages\JavaScript_LanguageService\JavaScript_LanguageService.msi from the installation package, soon or later you will face one more problem that "Something went wrong.. may be because of a extension.."
Easiest way is to remove TypeScript update for now. TypeScript future update may fix the problem.
OR
Run command prompt as administrator.
CD C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE
devenv /updateconfiguration
devenv /clearcache
I am trying to edit a small and simple visual studio extension project. Everything builds, but when I double click on the vsix file to install, I get a popup with the message "the extension manifest is invalid". What could cause this/where can I start looking?
I am developing in and targeting Visual Studio 2012.
this error will occur when the target VS edition does not present in your computer. so please check configuration for "Supported VS Edition" of vsixmanifest file. There are several editions: Ultimate, Premium, Professional and Express Edition. Be sure that you have the supported VS edition being configured installed in your computer.
hope this will be helpful.
hey there. So, we have a VS2010 project and the VisualSVN server on one machine. We added a new machine with the client visual svn and the projected loaded in. except for the WCF service. i'm getting a...
" error : the project file c:/..../wcfProject.csproj cannot be opened.
The project type is not supported by this installation."
i've checked the directory, the files and file structure are there and the same as the main development machine. any tips/solutions?
thanks
David K.
I had a similar problem with some WCF solution which I downloaded from a blog.
The solutions of running deveng with the switches did not resolve my issues. After some more searching it turned out that the following clue in the answer of Ralph Willgoss lead to the solution of my problem:
I resolved it by installing the Visual Web Developer.
I also had to (manually) install the Web Platform Installer to (automatically) download the last requirements for the project to properly load.
I had a similar problem when trying to create a new project of the following types:
WCF Service Application
WCF Work Flow Service Application
Syndication Service Library
I was using Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, with no other versions of Visual Studio installed.
I also had tried many other options, such as:
devenv /resetsettings
devenv /resetskippkgs
ensuring I had C++ option of VS2010 installed
VS2010 Service Pack 1
I resolved it by installing the Visual Web Developer.
There are a few things this could be so I can't give you one specific answer. However, here are a few things to try on your machine that is throwing the error:
First, verify which version of Visual Studio is set as the default for opening csproj files. It could be that you installed SQL or something else that uses an older version of Visual Studio. Sometimes that can give an error. Even if the default is the Visual Studio version selector I've seen it throw an error. Open up the correct version of Visual Studio (through the Programs menu) and then inside Visual Studio try to open the package. If that works, you know the issue is with which version is opening the file.
If that doesn't work, you could try resetting the Visual Studio settings. From the run menu type devenv /setup This should reset the Visual Studio environment and hopefully it will fix the issue. If this does not work, try running devenv /ResetSkipPkgs from the Run menu. This will try to load any packages that Visual Studio previously skipped.
If these steps don't work, let us know. Give us any further error messages that come up after attempting these steps.
