Cannot integrate Vault Pro Professional Cliet with VS 2010

[spokhriyal]

HI
I am working on a system with Windows 7 Pro N 32 bit, Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate with Team Explorer Installed on it.
Earlier I have Vault Standard client (5.0.4.xx)was installed on my system and it was working fine.

Yesterday I needed to upgrade it so I uninstalled the older one and Installed VaultProClient_5_1_1_19216.msi.
Installation was completed successfully but in visual stdio I am not viewing the Vault pro VS enhanced client option in "Tools>Options>Source Control>Current source Control Plug-in> options" Also the "Source Control" text is also disappeared from the options menu .
I have attached Log file and Screenshot Please help me to get rid of this issue.

It looks to me like the installer couldn't reach all the parts of the registry. What makes me think that is that you still have the regular Vault Standard entries in VS, and those should have been removed as part of the uninstall.

Rather than picking through the registry, I think the first thing to try is an uninstall and reinstall, but I have specific instructions for it. Even though it looks like you have logging for the install, I'm going to have you create a new log. Also, close all instances of Visual Studio prior to the install.
1) Uninstall the current Vault.
2) Create a text file in your C: drive and call it MSIlog.txt.
3) Under your Start menu, right click the command prompt icon and select Run As Administrator.
4) Run the following command, replacing the x's with the path to the installer.

Code: Select all

msiexec /i "X:\xxxx\VaultProServer_5_1_1_19216.msi" /l C:\MSIlog.txt

5) After the install, check the VS Tools - Options - Source Control - plugin again.

Hi Beth,

I have tried all the steps which you have mentioned, but still I am facing the same error which I was facing earlier will You please suggest me some other approach.

Can you look in your registry for what you have set under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SourceCodeControlProvider and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SourceCodeControlProvider\InstalledSCCProviders?

Also, look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\SourceControlProviders. You should see a few GUIDs representing each provider installed. Click on each one and see what provider it says. Are any of them for the Vault Enhanced Client?

I have the same problem, looking at the registry keys, I am missing the information for the SourceControlProviders in Visual Studio section, can you provide the GUID and entries needed to manually insert this? Or is there a fix somewhere?

[Beth]

zumwalt: If you installed Vault before installing VS 2010, then you can try a repair install to get it working. Some users have to reinstall instead.

The first place to look I've indicated in the attached screenshot. Do you have that same setting?

I have those keys, what I am missing is the one inside of the tree:
Software / Microsoft / Visual Studio / 10.0 / SourceControlProviders

The ones I am missing are in that tree, the others you have screen shotted already exist, I have VS 2003 / 2005 / 2008 / 2010 all installed, it works for all but 2010, and in the 2010 case it is because I am missing the key, I just want to manually add in the keys for the Visual Studio 2010, that is what I am looking for now, the GUID folder and containing information.

1) Had you installed Vault AFTER Visual Studio?

2) If you did not install Vault after VS, did you try a repair install of Vault or uninstall Vault and reinstall it?

3) Have you made any registry key edits? If you have, then you have to run "devenv /setup" so the VS cache is updated with all the plugin info.
