I've been working on an UWP app with a Telerik RadDataGrid component on it. It builds fine in debug and release mode. However, when building the windows store app package the process fails with the following reason:
ErrorFor file "C:\Projects\CompanyAppClient10\obj\x64\Debug\PackageLayout\Telerik.UI.Xaml.Grid.UWP\Assets\FilterFlyout\ic_arrow_down_white.scale-140.png" -
0x80070003 - The system cannot find the path specified.CompanyAppClient10 C:\Projects\CompanyAppClient10\MakeAppx
What could be the cause of this?
I've already tried creating a new clean UWP application with only a RadDataGrid component on MainPage.xaml. This results in the same error as above.
I've also repaired my Telerik UWP installation. Makes no difference.
Installing the newer update fixes it.
Alternatively you can use the following workaround -- copy the entire folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\UI for Universal Windows Platform Q2 2016\Binaries\Telerik.UI.Xaml.Grid.UWP\Assets\FilterFlyout
into
C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\UI for Universal Windows Platform Q2 2016\SDKs\Telerik UI for Universal Windows Platform\Redist\CommonConfiguration\neutral\Telerik.UI.Xaml.Grid.UWP\Assets
Based on the error message my guess is that your app requires scale 140 assets but Telerik doesn’t provide them. You many want to contact Telerik directly and file a bug report.
On one computer 'A' (win vista 32 bit) if I run my program in debug mode all the richtextbox controls throw 'property cannot be set' errors.
I can go on to build the exe (without error ) and the full application OK
But when I then install and run the application on this computer or on computer 'B' (win xp) the same problems occur on both.
However if I run the exact same code in debug mode on computer 'B' there are no errors.
If I build and install the application on computer 'B' it works fine. If I then install this application on computer 'A' it also works fine.
When putting together the application for distribution, both computers use identical copies of richtx32.ocx (it, like the code, is checked out from the same repository).
If I check out previous copies of the code on computer'A' (that used to previously behave OK) they also now exhibit the same problems as the latest version of the code.
I don't have a clue what's going on, please help!
I'm seeing multiple references to the Property cannot be set message being resolved in the version of the Rich Text Control that is distributed in Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 4, and another Property cannot be set message fixed in SP5.
First and foremost, make sure that a minimum of SP5 is installed; I'd just go with SP6.
For reference, my Microsoft Rich Textbox Control 6.0 (SP6) is at C:\Windows\System32\RICHTX32.OCX, and is version 6.1.97.82.
I know you said that both machines have the same copy of the control installed; for the sake of completeness, you may want to double-check that the new control was registered after installation.

A bad richtx32.oca file in the system32 directory seems to have been the cause of this.
Here's what an .oca file does:
Some of the properties of the control are provided by the framework
and some by the control itself. Programmatically, the properties from
the framework and the control all appear as properties of the control.
In order for these properties to appear, Visual Basic creates an
extended type library when the control is loaded into the toolbox.
Because the process of reading the control's type library and creating
the extended type library is time consuming, Visual Basic caches the
extended type library information into an OCA file.
If you delete the OCA file for a control Visual Basic recognized,
Visual Basic will recreate the .OCA file when you load a project
requiring the control. This recreation process comes with a time
penalty.
So it seems that having a bad .oca file in existence can mean that the properties of the control both in the IDE and in the compiled .exe will be affected.
The solution is to delete the .oca file in the system32 folder and then load the project again.
I cannot start my website from Visual Studio 2010 anymore.
For a few days I cannot start my project in a web browser using F5. When I open my web application directly by typing the same url 'http://localhost/Default.aspx' everthing works fine.
When I run the project (F5) a new webbrowser starts, but after a few seconds it is stuck and Visual Studio gives an error dialog:
Microsoft Visual Studio
Unable to start program 'http://localhost/Default.aspx'.
OK
When I run the project in release mode it gives an extra error:
Microsoft Visual Studio
The following module was built either with optimizations enabled or without debug information:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files\root\6552bec6\694bce32\assembly\dl3\8c9bd8d8\fb1d75cb_af26cc01\[name].Presentation.DLL
To debug this module, change its project build configuration to Debug mode. To suppress this message, disable the 'Warn if no user code on launch' debugger option.
OK
I have already repaired, removed and reinstalled Visual Studio 2010, I've tried using different browsers (including Chrome and Firefox), used different aspnet_regiis.exe options, etc. etc.
Nothing helps, and yeah now I'm stuck pulling hair out of my head ...
Anyone any idea how to solve this?
Does it work if you start it with [CTRL]+[F5] which runs without the debugger?
If so, then you have an issue with the debugger auto-attaching to the web server. I would check that debugging is enabled for your web project - a warning that usually crops up automatically from VS when it detects that a project is not built in Debug mode.
This is not as simple as switching the project configuration over to Release, because the DLL that the debugger is moaning about is one of the dynamically generated ones originated by Asp.Net itself.
Typically you should have, in your web.config:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" >
</compilation
<system.web>
<configuration>
(Along with any other stuff in <configuration> and <system.web> nodes).
There's also the possibility that Asp.Net debugging is not, for some reason, enabled.
Check out this msdn article on debugging asp.net applications in VS2010 for more information.
Note that if this is VS010 express, then you won't be able to debug - as confirmed by the aforementioned link; but since you way it used to work then I guess that's not your problem.
Update
Since that hasn't worked - you can try emptying the Temporary ASP.Net files folder. Easiest first is to do an iisreset. Then navigate to C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files and delete everything in it. I've had issues in the past where the Asp.Net binaries don't get refreshed and so when I'm debugging it moans that the files are out of date.
Change the View Browser to another browser. Run the view in browser or debug, then change back to original browser should work after that.
Had same problem, answer for me was to remove Avast Free AV. Everything worked for a year with avast free up until a week or so ago, uninstalling it fixed the problem.
I had this exact problem with Visual Studio 2008. The solution was to set the default web browser that VS uses to a real browser (e.g. IE) and not the "Internal Web Browser".
Right click on an ASPX file in your project and select "Browser With...". This lets you select the default browser to use when you select the "View in Browser" option and for when you debug/run the app (this is key).
Select your favourite browser (i.e "Internet Explorer") and click on "Set as Default". Do not pick "Internal Web Browser".
Debug away! Your app should come up in your browser now and debug as normal.
the solutions for me is to test with 127.0.0.1 in place of localhost. and all goes well for.
so the problem come from the host resolution name, to solve it please proceed like :
open cmd and then tape : %systemroot%\System32\drivers\etc\
open hosts file with notepad and the look for localhost ligne(you'll find 0.0.0.0 befor it )
change the 0.0.0.0 with 127.0.0.1 at all lignes with localhost .
I solved in this way:
Right click on a aspx page
Browse with set internal browser as default
Remove the previous default browser
Add %programfiles(x86)%\internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
Set this choice as default
For me I just did a Build /ReBuild on the project level and it started working!!!
I had the same problem. When I debug my code it says:
Unable to start program 'C:\homework.exe'. this system cannot find the file specified."
I'm using Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express but when I made a new project by the following steps:
Open C++:
Press new project
Press win32
Press win32 Console Application
Rename it
Click next
make sure: that the application type is console application
additional options: empty project*
Press Ctrl+Shift+A
In Visual C++/Code section press C++ File (.cpp)
rename it and press add
It works fine with for me now.
Please set your page name e.g Default.aspx revert to parent in IIS configuration
I'll share my experience with this same problem. This is not a solution, but someone may be able to figure out the problem from my particular experience.
I've been having this same problem for a few weeks now. (I don't know what changed on my system.) I do not run as local admin, because we are not allowed to have admin privileges on our PCs where I work.
Until today, I could expect F5 (Start Debugging) to start up a new local VS web server, open an IE window, and then issue an "unable to start program http://localhost:nnnn/Login.aspx" and "access is denied" error pop-up. If I closed the IE window, waited a few seconds, and then clicked F5 again, it usually started up my web app in debug mode just fine from that point on.
But today, that all changed. I did not change any configuration on my web app, which has been running fine, but I did add a couple of more classes to one of my subprojects. At this point, I could never get past the "unable to start program" message. I could run my app without debugging, but that was rather pointless. I even tried attaching to a running (non-debug) IE process, but that did not work.
Finally, I modified some of the properties in the WebAppName >Web >Servers screen. Specifically, I enabled "Specific port" for a specific HTTP port (which VS had been using all along), and I disabled "NTLM Authentication". I also enabled "ASP.NET" in the Debuggers section. Some of these I first clicked, then unclicked, then clicked again, saving in between each click.
This time, running with debug (F5) worked.
After running several times, I still usually get a "unable to start" error the first time after a recompile, but I can still usually get a debuggable running app to start after the second or third try. At least I'm back to where I was yesterday.
I suspect it has do with VS reloading its execution profile, and also probably something to do with permissions (since I cannot run as admin).
I'm using VS2012 with an ASP.net app that was written using VS2003... I've tried everything to get the IE page to open automatically when I select F5, or even Ctrl+F5... Haven't been able to get anything to work... However, I have stumbled upon a very poor work-around. When I select debug and I get the 'Unable to start program...' msgbox... I noticed that on the icon-tray I get a msg saying local-host has started
You'll notice a picture that the msgbox is pointing to:
Well, if you right click it, you get three options:
When you select the first: 'Open in Web Browser', it will open IE with the page your working with...
Like I said, it's a very poor work-around... but it works. This isn't an issue when I select debug using 'Chrome' or the page-inspector... But they have their own issues.
Try to turn on Bypass proxy for local addresses.
First you can go to your browser settings-> Change proxy Settings-> Connection-> Lan Setting and just check bypass proxy for local addresses.
If this solution don't work then also copy the following code check your web.config file for settings to bypass firewall:
<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy usesystemdefault="true" proxyaddress="http://proxy:port" bypassonlocal="false" />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>
I easily resolved this problem by enabling script debugging in the browser.
When I ran into this problem (using IE 11) I noticed that iexplore was open about a hundred times in the task manager. After killing them all I was able to open my project just fine.
Since then, I have made a .bat file with this code:
taskkill /F /IM iexplore.exe /T
so now I just run the .bat when I get that error.
(alternatively you could run that code from the cmd)
I just ran into this problem in Visual Studio 2013. I had to enable Anonymous Authentication.
Click on the project node in solution explorer.
Hit F4 to show the properties window.
Change the Anonymous Authentication option to Enabled.
UPDATE: navigating to the process via menu:DEBUG / Attach Process / iexplore.exe shows "Automatic: Silverlight code". i.e. VS 2010 already attached to the process. Why doesn't it go to debug view?
I have a frustrating debug behaviour going on on my laptop which I'd like to fix. I was following along with the demo called Silverlight TV 46: What's Wrong with my WCF Service?
On my computer, I noticed that putting throw new ArithmeticException() in the RIA service causes the just-in-time debugger to get involved (a bad thing -- I want VS). I can put a break point on the the throw new ArithmeticExpression() line, and VS stops as it normally does. Press F10, and I still get the just-in-time debugger kicking in.
On Yvor's computer (the presenter in the Ch 8 link above), the visual studio debugger kicks in instead of the just-in-time one. What am I doing wrong? Could having Redgate Reflector installed previously have caused this (it is gone now).

I've spent several hours looking for a way to solve this.
Browser is IE9 / Silverlight 4.
Previously, I started starting the silverlight app directly via the VS2010 environment... but then decided to get more deployment compliant (again).
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc838267(VS.95).aspx
Down the bottom they mention repairing from control panel / VS2010. Did that. Waited for ages, made coffee, did something else. Finally complete. Problem sill there. Included this step just-in-case the fix is cumulative (you get superstitious after a while with these things).
I then deleted zap files, switched startup page from html to the aspx one. Wired aspx to the xap (it wasn't pointing to the /debug/ folder). [note: looks like you can remove the debug via Silverlight Project / build / Output path: Replace Bin\Debug\ with Bin. With Silverlight I feel that the relative Uri path should match up to your html / aspx files no matter what -- wheather you are in Debug or Release.
project properties / Web / Specific Page
debugging works again!
Did .html stop debugging? Casual inspection reveals the same javascript stuff firing up Silverlight. On the surface it looks the same. hmmm. I guess it isn't.
... here are a few extra things to look at for those who still have issues (I may as well list them
while they are fresh in my mind).
project / properties / Web / Debuggers: I now only have Silverlight checked. ASP.Net is not checked any more. (Not sure if this influences my result at this stage)
make sure your web project points to the silverlight project in project / properties / Silverlight Applications. This ensures that the silverlight project's binary "xap" is copied to a folder within the Web Site / Web App. Note: hitting the add button reveals a destination folder (should be ClientBin).
Your build configuration will add an additional sub foler e.g. debug.
Make sure your .aspx or .html files have the right path. For me, I just included the .ClientBin/debug/ folder. I don't think this is deploy friendly, so I will search for a better way later.
IE9 settings.
[X] Disable script debugging.
[X] Disable script debugging (Other)
[ ] Display notification about a script error
[ ] Show friendly HTTP error message
Again, unsure if these later setting have an impact.
Lastly, there's something that I forget about sometimes. Be sure to check Debug VS2010 / Exceptions / Common language Runtime. This ups the ability to catch exceptions.
I had a similar problem, but the above did not resolve it. However, starting the application without debugging (Ctrl-F5) and triggering the exception would allow me to select the Visual Studio instance that I started the application from. Amazingly, I got a sensible stack trace and resolve the problem within a few minutes.
This is driving us crazy... In VS2010, MVC2 projects, not all projects.... both on a project that was upgraded from 2008/mvc1 and on a brand new project created within 2010/MVC2, we have the following behavior:
1) develop as normal..
2) hit F5 or CTRL-F5 to open up a browser
3) works great!
4) add a CSS file (or JS file or any file, or remove any file) in the project
5) immediately the dialog pops up "WebDev.WebServer20.exe has stopped working"
You have to close the program, and "F5" again - and all is right with the world...
Say we then modify an existing css file. No problem. But adding or removing one, immediate crash.
It seems like the development webserver is "locked on" to the project file and when it detects a change, it dies.
The Event Viewer is pretty unhelpful. The following is logged:
Faulting application WebDev.WebServer20.exe, version 10.0.30319.1, time stamp 0x4ba204ca, faulting module KERNEL32.dll, version 6.0.6001.18215, time stamp 0x49953395, exception code 0xe053534f, fault offset 0x000442eb, process id 0x%9, application start time 0x%10.
This is happening on all of our developer workstations, which include some with Windows Sever 2008, some with Windows XP, and some with Windows 7. All are running VS2010 Premium with ReSharper.
Also, the same thing happens on projects which target the 4.0 framework, only the error message referrs to WebDev.WebServer40.exe instead.
Google has revealed nothing. We've already tried "setting a static port" instead of a dynamic port - no help.
Please help if you can.
So, as it turns out, the problem was due to a certain use of MVCTurbine and StructureMap, but it seems likely that the problem would also occur with other IOC Containers, not just StructureMap.
The author of MVCTurbine has expressed that the fix will be in version 2.2 of that product.
In the meantime, one extra line of code in your Global.asax will solve this problem:
//VNEXT: after Turbine 2.2 we wont need this line anymore...
protected override void ShutdownContext() { CurrentContext = null; ServiceLocator = null; }
This article shows the particular use case we were addressing. The "normal plain vanilla" use of MVCTurbine and StructureMap would not have this problem.
Obviously, great thanks to Javier for being so responsive to help requests!
