This worked in VS2010 and VS2012. But in VS2013 application (by pressing "Run" or F5) is just starts with my user's rights and cannot access some resources (I'm using HttpListener).
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2">
<security>
<requestedPrivileges xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" />
</requestedPrivileges>
</security>
</trustInfo>
I tried to google, tried to generate new manifest, copied it's content from MSDN, but nothing helped. Did something changed in this part of VS2013?
Update1:
That was a part. Here is complete manifest content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<asmv1:assembly manifestVersion="1.0" xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" xmlns:asmv1="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" xmlns:asmv2="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0" name="MyApplication.app"/>
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2">
<security>
<requestedPrivileges xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" />
</requestedPrivileges>
</security>
</trustInfo>
<compatibility xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:compatibility.v1">
<application></application>
</compatibility>
</asmv1:assembly>
Update2:
Okey here is simple example: when I run compiled .exe file UAC asks for admin privileges. But when I run it from VS2013 (by pressing "Run" or F5) it doesn't! And if you open the same project with VS2012/VS2010, they do ask to restart under admin.
You can check this quickly:
Create console application in VS2013, add manifest and set level="requireAdministrator". Then run or press F5 (VS2013 runs the application under admin when press Ctrl-F5).
But this is not the behavior of VS2012/VS2010!
How can we get the old behavior?
Update3:
Please vote here or inform me about another ticket.
You need to disable the hosting process option to get the VS restart prompt. Project + Properties, Debug tab, untick the "Enable the Visual Studio hosting process" checkbox. It can be easier to just start VS elevated right away. Right-click the shortcut, Run as Administrator.
Not entirely sure if this is a bug or a feature. Keep your eye on this Connect report to learn more.
Update: looks like a bug, the feedback report was closed as "fixed". Unfortunately it gives no hint when that fix is going to make it our machines. Maybe a future VS2013 update, surely the next version.
Update2: the fix made it into VS2013 Update 3.
What I ended up doing is I run the project without debugging CRTL+F5 . The it gives me the same prompt that Visual Studio 2010 gives you.
I'm hoping this will get fixed soon™
In the mean time you can use handy shortcuts for restarting VS in admin mode, look up "Visual Studio Restart" in the extension gallery.
Edit:
Only way I see you can achieve the old behavior is to turn off VS hosting process as it is this process that for some reason "eats" the elevation prompt. Actually when I think about it, this behavior might even be by design. You can turn off hosting process in project properties (Debug) or when you generate .csproj set platform configuration UseVSHostingProcess tag to false, like so:
<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|AnyCPU' ">
<PlatformTarget>AnyCPU</PlatformTarget>
<DebugSymbols>true</DebugSymbols>
<DebugType>full</DebugType>
<Optimize>false</Optimize>
<OutputPath>bin\Debug\</OutputPath>
<DefineConstants>DEBUG;TRACE</DefineConstants>
<ErrorReport>prompt</ErrorReport>
<WarningLevel>4</WarningLevel>
<UseVSHostingProcess>false</UseVSHostingProcess>
</PropertyGroup>

I cannot figure out why Visual Studio is not opening CSHTML files. The error message I get this:
The document cannot be opened. It has been renamed, deleted or moved.
The file exists. I can change the extension to .html and open the file no problem. If I change the extension back to .cshtml with the file still open it lets me modify it. If I close the file and try to open it again I get the above message. Every other file type will open except .cshtml. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
**** UPDATE ****
Figured out that it has something to do with the HTML Editor used by default for .cshtml files. If I right click, open with... and select a different editor, it will open but I lose all intellisense and it doesn't recognize any of the razor syntax. Installing Update 4 for VS 2013 to see if that works.
Just Install Visual Studio 2013 Update 5, this will solve the problem
According to your try, it seems the Application (VS 2013) haven't granted necessary file operation permission on disk (this could be related to IDE files or project files). This could occur by a corrupted operating system.
Solution:
Check Directory permission manually OR Try to reinstall OS and then VS (reinstalling the VS itself doesn't take effect in many cases).
I had installed Xamarin studio and Xamarin for visual studio. Once I uninstalled Xamarin, the problem was solved!
Another thing I tried before removing Xamarin was I right click on .cshtml file and choose "Open with..." and then select "Source Code (Text) Editor". For me in this case i had intellisense.
Hope this helps a friend.
Upgraded Telerik in my ClickOnce application to version 2014.3.1202.40. (Never sure of the best way to do this. After the install, all my references to Telerik controls was broken and I had to remove all Telerik references in each of the projects and re-add them. So, I may be upgrading in the wrong way. But that's another matter.)
I deploy my app to a staging folder on my web server before moving to production. The app is signed with a commercial code signing certificate from Comodo that doesn't expire until 2019. I've uploaded new versions many times with no problem. But now, since I upgraded the Telerik controls, I can't download the and install the application. Here's what happens:
In Chrome, I enter the url: http://porpoiseanalytics.com/PorpoiseStaging/setup.exe
I get the "Not commonly downloaded" warning where I never got that before. I don't get any error on Firefox nor on IE.
If I tell Chrome to keep the file, I can start it. The installation starts on all the other browsers too.
About 3/4 of the way through the download of the files, Avast blocks it with DRep virus (I'm guessing lack of reputation). If I turn off Avast, it installs fine. ClickOnce install log shows an error: "Exception occurred loading manifest from file [application].exe: the manifest may not be valid or the file could not be opened."
Why is my application suddenly acting like it has no reputation when it's been downloaded for months with no problems. But, after I modify the application in VS2010 and then remove and re-add the Telerik dll's, I suddenly have no reputation. And what makes matters worse, is that now my production download located at ttp://porpoiseanalytics.com/PorpoiseDownload/setup.exe is suddenly acting the same way.
I admit I don't have a good enough understanding of reputation, signing, and clickonce. But I do know that whereas before we were fine, after deploying the application, we're flagged as malicious software. I made a few code changes in the program (not many), but I also replaced the Telerik dlls. Probably has something to do with signing and publishing, but I can't figure it out. Please help. Thanks.
I think I figured it out. Although I had signed the manifest in the main UI project (the installer), the executable was not signed. With some help, learned how to do that:
Download the Windows 7 SDK with signtool.
In Visual Studio, open project properties in the main UI project.
Open the Compile tab and click on the Build Events button.
In the post-build events, enter:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\signtool.exe" sign /f "$(ProjectDir)[name of code cert file]" /p "[password]" /t http://timestamp.comodoca.com/authenticode "$(ProjectDir)obj\$(ConfigurationName)\[exe name].exe
where [name of cert file] is the name of the code-signing cert file, such as private_key.pfk, and [password] is the password used when exporting the certificate (if % is included in the password escape it with %%, so pass%word would be entered as pass%%word), and [exe name] is the name of your primary project executable.
In other projects within solution, sign those by inserting a similar command line in the same post-build location:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\signtool.exe" sign /f "$(ProjectDir)DAD_Code_Certificate.pfx" /p "<password>" /t http://timestamp.comodoca.com/authenticode "$(TargetPath)
Orignal Problem
My theory is that the original problem was caused because of a new feature in Avast 2015 that does a DomainRep (reputation?) check and if several criteria are all met, the alarm bells go off and it stops the download. Because my executable was not signed, it met all the requirements.
It is possible (although I really am not sure about this) that because of this DRep alarm, Google flagged the installer on our website as malicious, causing the red "not normally downloaded" warning when first starting the download.
At least, that's my best guess. Others will most certainly understand this better than me (and would have avoided it in the first place by signing the executable).
Official answer from Google Apps technical support (I'm on the Silver support plan - $150/month):
I replicated the issue you are describing and it looks to be a known
issue with Google Chrome, when trying to download an archive that has
an executable in it.
Please be advised that Google Chrome is outside the support scope of
Google Cloud, however the workaround is rather simple: when that
message appears you can click on the arrow to the right of that
message and chose "keep". This will download the file requested.
This post shows how to use quick edits, but how to open it from the system file manager by default? When I do open with in the context dialogue and then open it with phpstorm.exe, my PC ignores it and just goes back to Adobe Edge Code.
I'm using Windows 7 64 bit and PhpStorm 8.0.2
Thanks
I looked at this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144154(v=vs.85).aspx
But all I had to do was go the file properties > open with > browse.
No registry hacks!
However, this doesn't open in quick edit mode, but somewhat works. I guess it's just the way it is after reading this
I guess this should've been in SuperUser, but I thought it was something in PhpStorm that was the solution.
When I press the button for MySql Web Configuration in Visual Studio 2012 it immediately shows the following error.
This is in a basically blank web app MVC 4 - nothing added really and yet I can't get this thing to fire up - any ideas?
I
your problem is located in a file called "machine.config", there are 2 files.
1st:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\ [version_no] \Config
2nd:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\ [version_no] \Config
backup each file before making any changes
open each file with notepad
search document for the following sections
<membership>
<profile>
<roleManager>
within these sections, remove everything after MySql.Web and stop before the closing end quote... it should like this when your down ---> MySql.Web"
same and repeat for the next machine.config file
close Visual Studio
reopen your project and try the website configuration tool.
not sure why this works. just know how to fix it.
I have just setup hudson and have begun playing around with it.
I have downloaded the email-ext.hpi into the the folder $HUDSON_HOME\plugins
I have restarted hudson post-step1 ( i am following this manual method as i am unable to use (for proxy setting reasons) the automatic way of installing plugins via the "Manage hudson" page.
I dont see any errors when hudson starts. In fact i see the line
INFO: Started all plugins
BUT:
When i start a project configuration page, I do not see the promised option "Editable Email Notification".
FYI:
1. I am able to setup and run few basic test builds and they run fine.
2. I am also able to configure and receive the default hudson emails for failures and subsequent successes.(This confirms the SMTP settings)
3. I was also aboe to setup the subversion tag hpi in the same way as detailed above and that works fine as well!
What am i missing? Thanks in advance for any help!
EXTRA INFO:
Hudson version - 1.379 running on Windows XP
OK - i figured out a workaround (although i still need to dig into why this is a problem). Recording here for anyone else tha tmay face this issue.
The plugin when copied into the $HUDSON_HOME\plugin was somehow not really being activeated/recognized. But when i copied it over also to C:\Documents and Settings\mylogin.hudson\plugins and restarted hudson service, voila! it worked.
If anyone knows why this might have occured, kindly record it here for reference. Thanks.
To install a plugin you should use the easy route. In Hudson, go to 'Manage Hudson' -> 'Manager Plugins' -> 'Advanced' (its a tab) and use the 'upload plugin' option.
Than follow the instructions. Usually you have to restart Hudson to actually get the plugin.
Way saver than messing around with the file system. In general the approach you had should have been correct, but there seems to be an issue with your $HUDSON_HOME. Have a look at the "Manage Hudson" -> "Configure System" page. What is the Hudson Home directory displayed on the top of the page? I don't know what Hudson does if it can't access the Home Directory? My assumption is here that Hudson runs as a service with a user account rather than the local system account and that you used a different account to copy the hpi file.
