I get errors on build stating 'The System cannot find the file specified' for each of the 3 metadata files 'CSDL, MSDL, SSDL'
Able to generate model from DB fine, connection string fine. Reinstalled the correct connector just fine and MYSQL as a provider appears fine in VS2012.
The 'Metadata Artifact Processing' propery on the model is set to 'Embed in Output Assembly' as instructed.
Out of ideas and hours to keep hunting, would really appreciate a fix here.
This was happening as I had a build script that deleted these metadata files as a result.
Sorry, my bad.

I want to use Excel Power Query to import JSON data from web and transform the data afterwards. I have 2 versions of JSON Data, one development version and one live version. Both versions had no problem prior to last week and could connect without any issues.
Last week the live version stopped working and couldnt connect through Excel or PowerBI anymore. Curiously, nothing has been changed in both versions that could've contributed to this error happening, there were absolutely no hands in either versions during that time frame.
This is the dev connection string in PowerQuery thats working without problems.
Source=
Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://www.dev.com/dummy/YXC/JSONDATA")),
Now when I try to change it to this
Source=
Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://www.live.com/dummy/YXC/JSONDATA")),
the error message: "[DataFormatError] We found extra characters at the end of JSON input." arises
After this and some troubleshooting, I opened a new empty Excel file to put the link directly into the "from Web" tab. The connection fails and I get up to 2 Errors.
"[DataFormatError] We found extra characters at the end of JSON input."
"Details: The Ressource under "https://www.live.com/dummy/YXC/JSONDATA" cant be opened through Web.Page since its apparently no website"
Before the website can be openend one must have an authorized microsoft organisation account.
In Chrome the data shows up without any issues and there are no authorization issues, also when I download the JSON data and import it through a file directly there are no issues either. Same error occurs with other accounts.
Since it says DataFormatError, I started looking into the JSON Data. The JSON Data doesnt have any whitespace and is identical with the working dev version.
Does anybody encountered this or has a clue on how to fix this?
When I open a new simple SSIS Project I created I get an error:
'Error loading HyperionFlatLoads.dtsx: The connection "" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.
C:\Users...\Projects\Hyperion_Load_Actuals\Hyperion_Load_Actuals\HyperionFlatLoads.dtsx
I've looked everywhere for this reference and can't for the life of me figure out what it's missing. The package runs fine; the data moves into the SQL table - but this error persists. Anyone want to help me find out why and eliminate this?
You can view and edit dtsx file as regular XML file. So, open it and find
<DTS:ConnectionManagers>
<DTS:ConnectionManager ... DTS:ObjectName="CM name">
if you are using SSIS 2012+
or
<DTS:ConnectionManager>
...
<DTS:Property DTS:Name="ObjectName">CM name</DTS:Property>
if you are on SSIS 2008.
Remove node <DTS:ConnectionManager> and save the file.
I want to add an alternative solution that I was facing for others who may stumble across this post.
I had setup logging, but forgot to specify a connection manager. This took me forever to find because viewing the XML doesn't make it obvious where "" is.
During packaging the Windows Store application, I get an unspecified error [APPX1204]:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\AppxPackage\Microsoft.AppXPackage.Targets(1139,9): error APPX1204: Failed to sign 'D:\Projects\VS2012\Stroik\Stroik\AppPackages\Stroik_1.0.0.11_AnyCPU_Test\Stroik_1.0.0.11_AnyCPU.appx'. SignTool Error: An unexpected internal error has occurred.
Build output refers to the part of a file generated by VS2012:
<SignAppxPackage AppxPackageToSign="#(FinalAppxPackageItem)"
CertificateThumbprint="$(PackageCertificateThumbprint)"
CertificateFile="$(PackageCertificateKeyFile)"
HashUri="$(_HashUri)"
EnableSigningChecks="$(EnableSigningChecks)"
>
<Output TaskParameter="ResolvedThumbprint" PropertyName="ResolvedThumbPrint"/>
<Output TaskParameter="AppxPackagePublicKeyFile" PropertyName="AppxPackagePublicKeyFile" />
</SignAppxPackage>
Yesterday packaging proceeded successfully. Today I added aditional logic to my app and changed some data in manifest. Since then I'm reciving presented error. I tried to regenerate Certificate in Packaging menu, delete Store/Temporary Keys (then regenerate), ... much more but nothing helps.
Now I have no idea how to handle it. Furthermore packaging a new project (as it is provided by vs2012) results in the same error.
Have you got any suggestions how to solve it.
If it helps anyone else, I was trying to make the build on a network share (virtualizing windows). Creating it on the Windows partition solved the issue.
I was developing on a Virtual Machine in VirtualBox and tryed to publish to the shared folder.
Change the output folder to a local folder on the virtual maschine solved it.
Granted this is older - see if you can try it with a different live id
You could also try to generate a new app, and diff the manifests between the apps.
Now according to:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/toolsforwinapps/thread/f25939fb-c48c-4bd0-938e-6a0afbd2dca0/
you may want to sign out, use IE 'in safe private browsing' and create a new one.
Also ensure that IE is set in "Browsing History->Settings" to get a new version of the page every time.
Login with the new one and give it a try.
I'm not sure if this error is related here or not, but it's a starting point based on the prior feedback on the above post.
This japanese site lists the same error code and seems to have the same resolution as well
http://coelacanth.heteml.jp/blog/windows-8signtool-error-an-unexpected-internal-error-has-occurred/
Its worth a shot, but I'll admit on this one not being 100% sure, just trying to help out : )
First, thanks for your help.
As a noob, I've been happily chugging along this well-known tutorial:
http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/static-pages#top
and I'm caught in a section where I enter
rspec spec/
where I receive 2 errors. The 2 errors are in the format of
PagesController GET 'home' should be
successful
Failure/Error: Unable to find matching line from backtrace
Mysql2::Error:Unknown database 'xyz.rb'
where "home" is the name of the action/page. The xyz.rb is the arbitrary
database name I have listed under the test section in database.yml. I
have already raked the database.
I'm pretty sure my problem has to do with how I'm not going with the
sqlite3 in the tutorial but instead with mysql2. The resources I have
managed to find only give guidance on what to input for the development
section in database.yml, but not for the rest of the sections like
"test". So, my question is, what exactly does this error mean, how to
fix it, and how should I configure my database.yml file? I tried
entering a file I see in my db folder like schema.rb, but this renders
the same error.
Thank you very much for your help.
You have two options:
Set up another sqlite database, as is default with a new rails application, or
Create another MySQL database, the same way you set up your development database, with a different name (such as test) and use that for testing.
Here's my database.yml file from the Rails Tutorial that uses SQLite for all the databases; you should be able to copy the test section if you decide to go with #1 above.
D:\Web\CityV2\App_Code\ActiveRecord.tt(0,0) : error CS0006: Compiling transformation: Metadata file 'MySql.Data' could not be found
Let me start by saying I'm using VWD 2008 Express.
These are the steps I've taken so far:
Created an entirely new project
Added references for Subsonic.Core.dll and MySql.Data.dll
Copied Active Record templates to project
Changed all <## include file="SQLServer.ttinclude" #> to <## include file="MySQL.ttinclude" #>
Copied the MySQL.ttinclude and Settings.ttinclude from the TemplateProviders folder
Updated Settings.ttinclude with my connectionstring and database information
Updated the Settings.ttinclude and created the external tool mapping as per ranomore's instructions
Attempted to build the code from the templates and received the error
I then realized that I didn't have MySql Connector "installed" on my dev box (even though I added a reference to the bin). So I proceeded to MySQL.com and downloaded the latest 6.0.4 connector msi and installed it (GAC). The error no longer appears, but neither does anything else: no new classes, no new errors, nothing [and yes, I refreshed the project after running the command ;-)].
Two things:
Am I missing a step somewhere?
Is there a way build the templates without needing MySQL installed to the GAC?
Unfortunately SubSonic 3 doesn't support VWD 2008 Express (or more specifically VWD doesn't support t4). There is a sort of workaround that ranomore came up with but it will require some work by you. See the following question for more details:
SubSonic ASP.NET MVC sample in Visual Web Developer Express
EDIT: I should have read your question properly you obviously already have the link above. Maybe worth your while downloading the trial of VS professional and seeing if you have more luck with that to see if it's worth outlaying the cash to buy it.
