I’m trying to open a customization in Visual Studio. I have Visual Studio Professional 2017 installed on my machine. In Epicor I go into developer mode, open the application and am taken to the Select Customization dialogue. I can highlight any available customizations, but the “Debug in Visual Studio” is grayed out, disabled. What else do I need to have set/configured to enable the “Debug in Visual Studio”?
- Try rebooting (if you just installed VS and didnt reboot yet)
It should work - also see thread
What version of Epicor?
There are only certain version of visual studio that work with it.
I think the previous post leads to this but check if this key exists in the registry
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\DevDiv\vs\Servicing\15.0\Core
It does not—does the “15.0” in that entry refer to the version?
We are on 10.2.1.7.
That is not a valid Epicor version…10.2.100.7?
Doh! Sorry, 10.2.100.7
15 means VS2017. On a standard install you should have that key.
You can try manually adding that key - but make sure you have rebooted and it still does not exists.
Microsoft Blip:
You can also check simply that VS2017 is installed by verifying the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\DevDiv\vs\Servicing\15.0\Core@Install is set to 1
I will give that a shot, thank you
Should have added that it did not exist after reboot, so tried to manually add.
