Error loading project(s)

[willowtechie]

I was doing some house cleaning of my solutions. I had everything checked in in the entire repository, and removed all of the the SG client temp files. In VS 2008 (using enhanced client on 4.1.4), I open a csproj from Vault without an issue. If I close VS and reopen (doubleclick the csproj or the sln), I get a few errors:

"The project WillowCore.Concierge is under source control. An error occured registering this project with source control. It is recommened that you do not make any changes to this project." Click OK / then "Operation could not be compelted. The param is incorrect."

I tried to enable logging in the enhanced client, but I dont have that option (as shown here http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=1534).

I've also reinstalled the client. Now that I am examining my csproj file, I notice the references to the 2005 client:

I recently removed VS 2005 from my machine, which these projects were originally created under. I've been using them in VS 2008 without an issue for months.

any ideas?

The uninstall of VS 2005 may have removed some registry keys where SCC data is kept. I think those who installed VS 2008 and didn't remove VS 2005 until after the 2008 install see this sometimes. You could try a repair install of VS 2008 to see if it would put the keys in place that are needed.
