Recently I have been working on some POCs on Geneva Framework. I have been using a windows 2008 server standard edition as my development machine. I am having a Visual Studio Team System 2008 with Service Pack1 on top which I have installed Geneva Framework Beta 2. I was trying out some examples from Identity Developer Training Kit which were working fine.
However there were some issues with test projects in my Visual Studio and I have re-installed my VSTS. After re-installation when I right click on my Geneva claims based application, I am unable to find the “Modify STS Reference” Option. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing Geneva Framework multiple times but with no luck. I got stuck on this. One of my friends suggested to check in visual studio folder if the uninstall is deleting all the foot-prints its creating. I have checked in the visual studio folder at the following location
“C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates”
No templates were present after Uninstall. However after little more investigation I found out that the issue is not with ProjectTemplates but with ProjectTemplatesCacheDir. The Claims aware templates were cached at the following location and uninstall of Geneva Framework is not removing the foot-prints.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplatesCache\Web\CSharp\1033
I have uninstalled Geneva Framework Beta2 and manually deleted the project templates of claims aware applications in the above path and reinstalled the Geneva Framework. That brought back my “Modify STS Reference” option.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI have done all what you said, but the option "Modify STS reference" doesn't appear.
I would like to know if Geneva Framework is adaptable with full version of VS 2008 or only Express edition.
Thanks
