Webmatrix 2 template creation failure - webmatrix

I'm having problems creating sites from templates using the latest version of WebMatrix. I have uninstalled it and retried a few times restarting my computer as well but still it fails to create a template. I have tried to create ASP.NET, Node.js templates which result in the same error ("Method failed with unexpected error code 50"). Googling hasn't helped.
The details in the log file are:
EXCEPTION: System.InvalidOperationException: Method failed with unexpected error code 50.

Any ideas?

Decided against using WebMatrix. As per my comment to Justin Beckwith I stuck to using VS2012 after assuming the error was down to:
My Documents folder being hosted on a file share somewhere
Or a conflict with VS2012.

In WebMatrix quick start go to Options -> Site and change your default site location to a local file path.

Unable To Deploy SSRS 2012 Report

When trying to deploy a 10mb report on SSRS I get the following error -
Error 1 System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: There was an exception running the extensions specified in the config file. ---> System.Web.HttpException: Maximum request length exceeded. at System.Web.HttpRequest.GetEntireRawContent() at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_InputStream() at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapServerProtocol.Initialize() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapServerProtocol.Initialize() at System.Web.Services.Protocols.ServerProtocol.SetContext(Type type, HttpContext context, HttpRequest request, HttpResponse response) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.ServerProtocolFactory.Create(Type type, HttpContext context, HttpRequest request, HttpResponse response, Boolean& abortProcessing) 0 0
I've done quite a bit of research on this and from what I've found, the only way to fix this is to change the web.config file. The problem is that I've done this and I still can't get it to work. We have SSRS2012 installed in Sharepoint mode so theC:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer folder does not exist. I did find the web.config file in the following location though - C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\WebServices\Reporting. I changed the following line to
<httpRuntime executionTimeout="9000" maxRequestLength="1048576" />
but this still does not work. I also found a web.config file in the following location - C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\14\WebServices\Reporting and changed the file as above as well, but still no joy. Are there any other config-files I'm supposed to be changing?
If you are deploying reports to SharePoint (as you have installed with sharepoint mode), then you must be having the URL for SharePoint path.
If you have the URLs, Try below:
TargetServerURL: put the sharepoint URL (Example: https://sharepoint.com)
TargetDatasetFolder: Path for your folder in SP. (https://sharepoint.com/MyFolder)
TargetReportFolder: Path for your folder in SP. (https://sharepoint.com/MyFolder)
TargetReportPartFolder: Path for your folder in SP. (https://sharepoint.com/MyFolder)
TargetDataSourceFolder: Path for your folder in SP. (https://sharepoint.com/MyFolder)

Operation not permitted on IsolatedStorageFileStream. when using MvvmCross file plugin

I have an instance of IMvxFileStore implementation for for Windows Phone injected into my service.
Let say I want to store settings in a file located at appsettings\userprofiles\profile1.txt
Using the file plugin, I first call the API EnsureFolder exists, passing in the full path to my profile settings file appsettings\userprofiles\profile1.txt to ensure that this folder has been created and does exist.
Just for sanity, I check to ensure that the folder has been created using the FolderExist API. This always returns true atleast for now.
The code looks like this:
private string GetStorageItemFileName(string filename)
{
Guard.ThrowIfNull(string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(BaseDirectory), Messages.RepositorBackingStoreIsNull);
filename = _fileStore.PathCombine(BaseDirectory, filename);
_fileStore.EnsureFolderExists(filename);
if (_fileStore.FolderExists(filename))
{
// what do do????
}
return filename;
}
However, when I attempt to write content to the file using WriteToFile API, passing in the file name returned from the method above and some string, as follows
try
{
_fileStore.WriteFile(filename, content);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.Error(ex);
}
, I get the following exception:
System.IO.IsolatedStorage.IsolatedStorageException was caught
HResult=-2146233264 Message=Operation not permitted on

My dev environment is setup as follows:
- Surface Pro 3
- Visual Studio 2013 Community
- Windows Phone 8.1 SDK and Simulator
- MvvmCross 3.0.0.4. (yes,, it is old and will be updated after MVP).
Before I go digging into the MvvmCross code base, anyone with ideas on what I could be doing wrong here?
Upgraded the project to .NET 4.5 and also upgraded to MvvmCross 3.5.1 and still ran into the same problem. Although I lost a couple of days due from the upgrade, I am glad it is over with.
The problem I am running into here has to do with the fact that I am calling
_fileStore.EnsureFolderExists(filename);
and passing in the full path to the file. Underneath the scenes, MvvmCross is calling
IsolatedStorageFile.CreateDirectory(filename);
which appears to be creating a directory with the same file name. So passing in "images\image1.png" to the above API appears to create a directory or hold some IO resource related to "images\images.png".
When you attempt to write to file using
_fileStore.WriteFile(filename, content);
MvvmCross is attempting to create a file stream using
var fileStream = new IsolatedStorageFileStream(path, FileMode.Create, isf))
and the exception is thrown right here.
Fix is to ensure you are passing to IMvxFileStore.EnsureFolderExists API just the folder in question. In this case it is "images". Then you pass to IMvxFileStore.WriteFile the relative path to the file including the file name such as "images\image1.png" and you are good to go.
Fixed code looks like this:
private string GetStorageItemFileName(string filename)
{
Guard.ThrowIfNull(string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(BaseDirectory), Messages.RepositorBackingStoreIsNull);
filename = _fileStore.PathCombine(BaseDirectory, filename);
// assumption is that filename does not contain directory information
_fileStore.EnsureFolderExists(BaseDirectory);
return filename;
}

PlatformVerificationTask internal error: "The file exists"

Anyone have any insight as to what this error is, and how to fix/avoid it?
Warning 1 An internal error occurred in PlatformVerificationTask. System.IO.IOException: The file exists.

I have doctored up a project to run the compiler to build .NET CF dlls from within VS2010, according to this SO question ( Building Compact Framework applications with VS2010 (without VS2005) ) . The build was working but now it stopped with this odd error.
I figured it out. By... uh.... Reading the documentation.
The doc page for System.IO.Path.GetTempPathName says
The GetTempFileName method will raise an IOException if it is used to create more than 65535 files without deleting previous temporary files.
The GetTempFileName method will raise an IOException if no unique temporary file name is available. To resolve this error, delete all unneeded temporary files.
So... I deleted the tmp????.tmp files from C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp, and everything worked again.

Windows Azure Training Kit Guestbook Demo get error when building

This is the error i receive when i build the GuestBook demo. Does anyone have any idea what would be causing this? I'm assuming something got installed wrong but i can't figure out what. I'm also assuming it has something to do with MSBuild.

I found the solution in this site
http://consultrikin.wordpress.com/2013/04/11/the-deletecurrentdeployment-task-failed-unexpectedly/
Solution:
Make sure you have installed every component for Windows Azure. http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=35448 This particular error says that the system is missing Windows Azure Emulator.
It seems that the build tries to delete an existing azure deployment, but fails doing so. Please make sure, that the current Azure SDK is installed correctly.
