Hi there, please excuse my ignorance here, but I love the idea of what Kigg does however I am having a little trouble getting started, I keep getting an error when I try to open the project file (from the downloadable src) saying that

 "This project type is not supported by this installation" when opening the "VSTest.csproj" file and "NUnitTest.csproj"

At first it was all 3 projects , but now I have the webapp opening, but the two test projects will not open. I have installed the MS MVC preview 2 , Ajax and NUnit 2.4.7 but Im not sure what else I might be missing or doing wrong, just want to get a look a the sample app running to get me started. Im running Visual Studio 2008 standard edition and I think it might be something to do with VSTEST (perhaps its not installed or not supported) Like I said sorry if this comes accross like I havent a clue what im talking about but any help would be greatly appriciated, thanks guys

Regards

George

Have you installed the web components for VB and C# for Visual Studio 2008?

So far Other than Visual Studio 2008 Standard , I have installed

 ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX extensions

ASP.NET 3.5 Extensions

ASP.NET MVC Preview 2,

 Im not sure how to tell I have installed web components for VB and C# for Visual Studio 2008, Is it something available online or is it part of the main Installation ? (I really appriciate your help)

Go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs.

Find the Visual studio entry, and click "Change/Remove".

You should now see the Visual Studio maintenance mode window.

Select "Add or Remove Features".

There should be two components "Web Development" and "Windows Development". Check everything under "Web Development" and click Update.

Yea I got into Visual Stutio Maintenence Mode, the only options was to pick "Web Dev and Windows C#" which I didBut there were no other Sub Options available. Are you sure VS 2008 standard will work with this ?

 Like I said im not sure what the story is with VSTEST, dont think this feature is part of what I have.Are there any other prequisites that I might be missing ! Thanks for you help, it is greatly appreciated.

i did some fiddle around at MSDN and found out that  "Code Quality Tools" are not available for VS 2008 Standard Edition , it is avaiable from Profession and onwards.

Here is the product Stack for you.

 Hope this helps

 I have visual studio 2008 profesional and i get the same error. After I install the .vsi package  i go to new project web and find kigg there and run it and it gives me this error:

"A problem was encountered creating the sub project 'Web'....

The project file: ...'\localtemp\temp\web.csproj' cannot be opened.

The project type is not suported by this installation. 

 I installed mvc framework, and googled for the missing references, like nunit and that fixed the problem.  Thanks for the response anyway :). Looks like a pretty cool app, it only needs little stuff to be done, like a top 10 list of all the articles. If i make it i will surely post it for anyone else.

Thanks for the followup and letting me know that you have got it working.

Hi there, maybe this problem will be caused for have installed analysis services from visual studio 2005 integrated with SqlAnalysis and by default your proyect is open with vs2005, so open a new instance of vs2008 and drop the solution file in there , then a wizard will convert the proyect for vs2008. dont forget to change connectionStrings and reference the corrects versions of each assemblies.

I Hope this helps...
