Visual Studio.NET 2005 Service Pack 1

[Mark Rae]

http://msdn.microsoft.com:80/vstudio...1/default.aspx

1) This is big - nearly 500Mb

2) If you have WAP installed, you must uninstall it first - WDP doesn't need
to be uninstalled

3) It will almost certainly take over an hour to install!!!

Having had to download the 1.16 GB big Windows SDK for .NET 3.0 at least
once every month since March, I don't feel that 430 MB or so are that
big ;-) It took me 3 minutes to download the SP1.

Greetings,
Laurent

It took me 3 minutes to download the SP1.

And how long to install it...?

Possibly longer:

"The download you requested is unavailable. If you continue to see this
message when trying to access this download, go to the "Search for a

I guess the site is getting hammered...

I downloaded VS 2005 SP1 + all the Express products SP's
before the site started getting hammered.

Didn't do it yet. Your word of caution (as well as others I read) made
me decide to wait until I find a good time.

I figure we're headed for there anyway, so I installed it right away.
No problem so far.

Hmm - interesting...

1) Uninstalled "old" WAP.

2) Started installation of SP1

3) Went to the pub to watch the match

4) After installation of SP1, rebooted machine - it didn't ask me too, but
this isn't my first day... ;-)

5) Opened all my existing web application projects - all recompiled without
error in both Debug and Release mode

Smile - relief... etc

However, now I need to make a change to one of the existing web app
projects, so I open the aspx in question, and immediately get the following
error:

Error 3 C:\Documents and Settings\MarkRa e\My Documents\Visua l Studio
2005\Projects\x xxxxxxx\xxxxxxx x_app\Global.as ax: ASP.NET runtime error:
There is no build provider registered for the extension ''. You can register
one in the <compilation><b uildProvidersse ction in machine.config or
web.config. Make sure is has a BuildProviderAp pliesToAttribut e attribute
which includes the value 'Web' or 'All'. C:\Documents and
Settings\MarkRa e\My Documents\Visua l Studio
2005\Projects\x xxxxxxx\xxxxxxx x_app\Global.as ax 1 1 xxxxxxxx_app

[Obviously, I've replaced the actual name of the solution and project with
xxxxxxxx because it's a very well-known company and I've signed an NDA
etc...]

The entire first line of the aspx file has the blue squiggly line underneath
it...
<%@ Application Codebehind="Glo bal.asax.cs" Inherits="xxxxx xxx_app.Global"
Language="C#" %>

What is even stranger is that this shows up as an error, not a warning or a
message, but the app still compiles and runs...???

Anybody else experiencing this? Any ideas on what to do about it?

There is a mention of it on Scott Guthrie's blog as relates to the "old"
WAP, but no mention on what causes it or how to get rid of it...

re:

<%@ Application Codebehind="Glo bal.asax.cs" Inherits="xxxxx xxx_app.Global" Language="C#" %>

1. Where's the "codefile" property ???
2. Why are you using "codebehind " in an ASP.NET 2.0 global.asax ?

3. Why are you using Inherits="xxxxx xxx_app.Global" in an ASP.NET 2.0 app ?
Is your ASP.NET 2.0 app named "Global" ?
