Visual Studio 2010/Create Project/Crystal Reports project hangs

Former Member

I was trying to upgrade to Crystal Reports 2010 on a VS 2008 project but it hung doing the upgrade.  I then tried just creating a new project in Visual Studio 2010.  Again, it hangs.  Tried full reinstall of CR, devenv /resetskippkgs, devenv /resetsettings, ClearCase reinstall (I think it might be ClearCase related).  I then ran ProcMon and Visual Studio seems to be stuck in an infinite loop.  I think it needs to be Crystal Reports related however, because no other project types hang.  Process Monitor shows that it's looking for a file over and over again, but I can't tell what file or why.  Anyone seen this and know how to work around it?  Windows 7 so I've tried UAC on/off, Administrator/non-Admin.

The last 10 iterations of the procmon log are attached in a CSV file.

Thanks, Chris

Hi Chris,

See if below steps help,

- Uninstall the CR for VS 2010 components installed.

- Do a repaire on VS 2010.

- Install CR for VS 2010 SP4

- Check if a Crystal Reports website could be created.

- Open your project in VS 2010, perform the upgrade.

Make sure that you are logged in as an admin while doing above.

Also, only below editions of VS 2010 are supported with CR for VS 2010

Visual Studio 2010 (Professional, Premium, and Ultimate)

Hope this helps,

Bhushan

Hi Chris,

I suggest you log a case with ClearCase. I know we work with MS's Team Foundation Server and I have never heard of ClearCase before, which doesn't mean anything. From the description though I think you are correct, it would appear CC is looking for possibly some dependency or some reference it can't resolve.

Possibly they have a logging component you can turn on to get more info from?

Thanks Don.  I think that will be my next step but I was hoping someone here might have seen it.  I could remove everything and put back CR without CC as well to prove it works fine.

Great... we can leave this post open for a while to see if anyone else uses CC to manage their Projects.

In the mean time try CC's forum, maybe they can help, possibly a known issue.

If you do find the answer please update the post.

Thanks again

Don
