I just installed EO.Web Controls Standard 2007.1 on my development machine today. The install appeared to go well, all of the EO.Web tools are in my Toolbox and I am able to drag the elements to a page, set properties, etc.

However, when I try and debug or build a page, I get lots of errors in Visual Studio 2005 Professional. Examples of the errors are below:

***********

The type or namespace name 'EO' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Element 'TabStrip' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site.

Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Element 'topgroup' is not supported.

Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Element 'items' is not supported.

Element 'TabItem' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site.

Element 'MultiPage' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site.

Element 'PageView' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site.

************

The errors only appear in Visual Studio. I am able to open pages with tab strips in them on my server with no errors. However, because I am getting the errors in Visual Studio, it is not allowing me to build my site, which is basically preventing me from continuing to develop the site.

Can you help?

Hey, Keith

Thanks for posting your questions here.
Did you have any old version of EO.Web Controls? If you did, what you can try is, uninstall whatever version you have right now, and reboot your machine, and then re-install the new 2007.1 version.
If this is a new fresh EO.Web controls installation. You can see if there is a "EO.Web.dll" in your bin folder. If no, you need to copy one from your installation folder, such as C:\Program Files\Essential Objects\EO.Web Controls 2007.1\Net11\Samples\CS\bin, or C:\Program Files\Essential Objects\EO.Web Controls 2007.1\Net20\Samples\CS\bin.
Then, also make sure in your root folder of your proejct, there is a "eo_web.ashx". If no, you can get one from C:\Program Files\Essential Objects\EO.Web Controls 2007.1 folder. Then try to rebuid the whole project, and debug.
Please let us know if these can fix the problem.

Thanks.

No luck. I checked to make sure that the files were in the project and both were right were they are supposed to be. Next, I uninstalled the software and then reinstalled it. Loaded the project back up in Visual Studio and rebuilt and I am still throwing the same errors as before.

Hey, keith

Could you tell me your Visual Stuido 2005 version number? your .net framework version, and what operation system you are using?
We did not hear such problem like that before, so we are trying to reproduce it in house. We will let you know if we find anything.

Thanks.

I am running Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2

One thought that might be causing a problem. I had Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition installed on this same machine before I installed Visual Studio. We did not uninstall it before installing Visual Studio. Nothing else is causing a conflict that we are aware of and there are times that we still run Visual Web Developer. Like I said before, the tools are all installed in the Toolbox and seem to work, it is only when we try to debug or build that all of the errors pop up.

Here is the version info from Visual Studio:

I have been working on several things yesterday and today trying to get a handle on what might be causing these errors.

The first thing I tried was to totally uninstall Visual Studio, Visual Web Developer and EO.Web, and all other related products and reinstall from scratch (after a reboot). No luck.

Next, I went to my server, which also has pretty much the same software installed on it. I was thinking that the problem might have something to do with my machine. No such luck, I was getting the same behavior on the second machine as on my development box.

Then, I uninstalled Microsoft Web Application Projects 2005 and tried things in just plain Visual Studio. Bingo - I think that I hit upon something! While I was still getting a few errors in the project due to some code that is related to Web Application Projects, I did not get any errors related to EO.Web.

I am wondering if you guys might have a compatibility issue with Microsoft Web Application Projects 2005 loaded on Visual Studio?

Thanks a lot, Keith.
Looks like Microsoft Web Application Projects 2005 is the one. We have been trying to reproduce it here, but we don't have the Web Application Projects, and we could not reproduce it here either. We will confirm this bug and if it is the reason, we will put a fix out as soon as we can. Thanks again for your very valuable information.
Another thing you can try for now is, try to add our controls into GAC to see if it can make any difference. And also, make sure all pathes are local drive pathes, not network drive path.

Thanks.

Web Application Projects 2005 can be downloaded from Microsoft here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=8b05ee00-9554-4733-8725-3ca89dd9bfca&displaylang=en

Can you tell me how to add your controls into GAC?

hi, Keith

Thanks for the download link. We are working on it right now.
There are two ways to add our control to GAC:
1. Simply copy our control dll file to C:\WINNT\ASSEMBLY\
2. use the gacutil.exe utility, installed with the .NET Framework
gacutil /i EO.Web.dll

You can refer to this article as well. http://www.samspublishing.com/articles/article.asp?p=101748&seqNum=13&rl=1

Thanks.
