Hi Cem, getting errors after building the solution in VS2010 and debugging..

I am sorry for the inconvenience, it seems we forgot to include the 3rd party database DLL in the source code package. Please re-download the file which includes the correct DLL.

Thanks Cem,

One more error..

Error    1    Exception occurred creating type 'VistaDB.VistaDBLicense, VistaDB.4, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=dfc935afe2125461' System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.    I:\FileVista-v4.0-sourceFinal\FileVista\Source\Properties\licenses.licx    1    FileVista

In the solution explorer, open FileVista\Properties\licenses.licx file, change this line

VistaDB.VistaDBLicense,VistaDB.4, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=dfc935afe2125461

to this line:

VistaDB.VistaDBLicense,VistaDB.4

After this change the solution should be built without errors.

However, VistaDB is a 3rd party library and it requires a development license.
So you should use a SQL Server database instead of the VistaDB database as you may receive licensing errors when you run the application.

Let me know.

Hi Cem,
This did not resolve the error, still the same errors as above.
Thanks

Hi Rob,
Please follow these steps:

1. Right click and exclude FileVista\Properties\licenses.licx from the project. You should be able to build without any compilation errors. 

2. Make sure IsConfigurationCompleted and Provider settings in FileVista\App_Data\FileVista.config looks like this:
  <add key="IsConfigurationCompleted" value="0" />
  <add key="Provider" value="" />

3. Run/start debug, you should see the configuration wizard (configuration.aspx). Proceed to the next page of the wizard.

4. Open SQL Server Management Studio and run FileVista\App_Data\database\CreateSqlServerDB.sql to create a FileVista database in SQL Server.

5. In the configuration wizard, choose the SQL Server database instead of VistaDB and enter the connection settings for your new SQL Server database. Complete the configuration wizard.

FYI, the below requirement is removed in FileVista v4.5:

"However, VistaDB is a 3rd party library and it requires a development license.
So you should use a SQL Server database instead of the VistaDB database as you may receive licensing errors when you run the application."

With this release, you can compile against VistaDB without a VistaDB developer license.
