I have installed the SSAS extension in Visual Studio 2022, it works well but it allows me to create Multidimensional projects only. "Analysis Services Tabular Project" is missing from the list. Any idea what's going on?
Thank you
You need to install it from the Visual Studio Gallery. It looks like there is a temporary workaround in the Q&A tab to resolve the issue you are seeing.
Uninstall AS extension.
install the AS extension and close the VS2022.
copy/replace the manifest file(link to download the file is below) in the SSAS folder, a location where your VS22 is installed. For
example "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\SSAS".
run the following command in cmd at a location where VS2022 is installed. For example "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise\Common7\IDE" command: "devenv.exe /updateconfiguration"
open visual studio and it should work fine.
if it still doesn't, make sure the AS extension is enabled and then execute the 3rd step again after closing VS.

If you are looking for other extensions in 2022 this page has instructions and links.
Had the same problem with a old VS 2022 Version. Updating my VS 2022 to 17.3.4 an re-installing SSAS Extension was resolving the issue.
We now have a permanent fix for the issues. Please go ahead and update
your VS 2022 version to 17.2.5. You should now be able use Tabular and
Multidimensional Models.
I tried to open a .Net Core solution which was working fine in 2015. Recently they added some .Net Core projects to the solution and asked us to upgrade to Visual Studio 2017 to be able to run them. We installed Visual Studio 2017 and tried to open the solution, but I am not able to build it. I get the following errors when I right-click and try to select "Manage Nuget packages".
I tried to open the PackageManager console from Tools: even this is not working
I also performed the "repair Visual Studio" process too.
Finally i resolved it by deleting my nuget.config both at project level and also in %appdata%/roaming/nuget .I think the issue is because of broken config file due to change from visual 2015 to visual studio 2017 .Not sure about the exact issue though
So I recently bought a new computer. And now I wanted to install visual studio 2015. So I did. But now the problem is that i cant create a new project because i cant select a vb.net form or anything else and also im getting these error messages saying:
The 'ErrorListPackage' package did not load correctly
The'VisualStudioPackage' package did not load correctly
The Microsoft.visual studio package did not load correctly
anyone has a solution for this? because I'm kinda getting a bit frustrated now.
I tried a complete uninstall and install and it didnt work. I tried copying folders from my laptop to my new pc but also that didn't work. Also switching frameworks doesn't do anything. I also never experienced this problem before but can this problem occure because I have 2 drives?? Seems odd but I think I'm also going to do an uninstall again and then try the .iso installer and see if that helps.
So this is how I fixed it for myself.
I removed all files and folders that are linked to visual studio
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0
C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio Services
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VSCommon
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VsGraphics
After I deleted all of those folders I deleted the regkeys located:
HKLM > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Visual Studio
After that I started the visual studio installer with admin rights.
And now I can create a project :)
This usually indicates an issue with an extension which ships with some dependent assemblies which Visual Studio itself (or another extension) also depends on. When these dependencies are different versions, it's not predictable which version will load.
To solve your problem, first disable your extensions and add-ins, then close Visual Studio, clear the ComponentModelCache folder under:
C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
And start Visual Studio again.
This should clear the immediate issue.
Now enable each extension one-by-one restarting Visual Studio every time to see if the issues come back.
To dive deeper into the underlying issue, you could look into all the extensions under these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions
C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\Extensions
Look for assemblies from Microsoft itself (commonly found are Microsoft.TeamFoundation.* and Microsoft.VisualStudio. in folders containing an extension that did not originate from Microsoft. These extensions are common culprits for these issues.
If you want to dig deeper, consider using fuslogvw from the Windows SDK to see which assemblies are loaded and which exact versions they are. You can also look into the Visual Studio logs after the issue surfaces to see what underlying cause there may be. The log should be available under:
%AppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ActivityLog.XML
I've got a database project as part of my solution in Visual Studio 2013. Been working perfectly for the last 3 weeks and now suddenly today it won't build and so I cannot publish any changes. I'm getting an MSBuild error:
"C:\Program Files
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v12.0\SSDT\Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets(513,5):
Error: MSB4018: The "SqlBuildTask" task failed unexpectedly.
System.MethodAccessException: Attempt by method 'Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Build.SqlTaskHost.OnCreateCustomSchemaData(System.String,
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2)'
to access method
'Microsoft.Data.Tools.Components.Diagnostics.SqlTracer.ShouldTrace(System.Diagnostics.TraceEventType)'
failed."
Anyone got any ideas? All I did this morning was pull down the latest changes from source control. I can't see how that would mess up the actual MSBuild process, and the guy who checked in last doesn't have any issues at all.
You need to install the last version of SQL Server Data Tools:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/data/hh297027
Make sure to restart VS and then build the solution again. This solves the problem!
In Visual Studio 2013 -> Tools -> Extensions and Updates... -> Updates -> Product Updates -> Microsoft SQL Server Update for database to 12.0.50318.0
I was upgrading from 12.0.41012.0 and this resolved my issue. This relates to the answer to install the latest SQL Server Data Tools.
I am using Visual Studio Community 2013.
I had same error:
You can fix it by updating the SQL Server Tools:
Tools --> Extensions and Updates
Then under Product Updates you will see an option to update SQL Server Update.
Click on Update, after it has installed restart Visual Studio.
Try:
Install the latest DacFx from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43370
Reinstall the latest SSDT from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=393521
Source: VS2013 SqlBuildTask 04018 Error
I searched "Visual Studio 2013 Update 2" in MSDN subscriber downloads and it was there
Also I filed a bug with MS
VS2013 SqlBuildTask 04018 Error Please up vote it if you are getting the same problem
I had the same issue. I tried to repair Visual Studio 2013, update 4, SSDT, the DAC tools, etc., but it didn't work any better.
However I noticed the Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets file present in C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v12.0\SSDT was dated from 2013 (In fact it corresponded to the old SSDT). So what I did is just copy the new one (which I suprisingly found in C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\SSDT ...) over to this v12.0\SSDT folder, restarted Visual Studio 2013 and now it works. For information, that new SSDT targets file is dated from 2014/10/26 and its size is 75437 bytes.
It turns out the issue was with Visual Studio Update 3. I uninstalled and reinstalled VS 2013 to Update 2 only and reinstalled Data Tools and it works perfectly now.
I already had the newest Version of SQL Data Tools installed, but after installing VS2015 RC it stopped to work. After run a repair on SSDT it compiles again with success.
I had Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 installed and was having this issue. I followed these steps from above and that fixed the issue for me -->
In Visual Studio 2013 -> Tools -> Extensions and Updates... -> Updates -> Product Updates -> Microsoft SQL Server Update for database to 12.0.50730.0
I had the same issue and just restart the Visual Studio and it works for me.
I experienced the same issue with a slightly different stack trace:
Error MSB4018: The "SqlBuildTask" task failed unexpectedly.
System.IO.IOException: The file exists.
Turns out this is a issue with the Temp directory for the service account I was using, I think if you exceed X number of folders/files in that directory the publish will no longer work. Fixed this issue by following the instructions mentioned here (for my service account):
Go start-> run
Type %temp% and click ok
Make sure you are in the folder /Local/Temp
Delete everything in this folder
If it helps anybody, I installed VS2014 CTP 3, and I can build from it. Interestingly after a successfull build in vs2014, the next time you build in VS2013 it works. But subsequent builds in VS2013 dont work, until you rebuild in VS2014.
I was able to fix the issue by repairing Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools and re-starting Visual Studio 2013.
Control Panel > Right Click: "Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools" > Click: "Repair" > Re-Start Visual Studio
I had the same issue. Running disk check and then rebooting fixed it.
I got the same error and fix it by re-install Visual Studio 2015
I had this problem and fixed it like this:
install the latest DacFx from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43370
Delete the Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets file from C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v12.0\SSDT
repair SQL Server Data Tools 2013 , reset visual studio()
Is there a way to reset to the original vb.net snippets that came along with visual studio 2008?
I recently installed a purchased third party lib, that managed to break almost all the default snippets.
I can see that the snippets do physically exist in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VB\Snippets\1033 but only the following sections are loaded to vs 2008:
application
office development
os
wpf
Any help would be appreciated...
Found a solution !!!
I went to tools > Code snippet Manager
and re-added the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VB\Snippets\1033 folder
Everything works great now !!!
You can try to reset the IDE-settings by calling it with /resetsettings
It sounds like your SnippetIndex file is broken. There should be a file at the directory you listed named SnippetIndex.xml. This is the file that is consulted in order to build the initial list of snippets. Can you check that file and see how big it is. It should be at least 500+ lines (mine is 579).
If it's less then this is almost certainly your problem. You can fix this by repairing the Visual Studio install
Go to Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs
Select Visual Studio
Choose Repair
