Receive The Error "this Isn't A Valid Solution File"
Nov 7, 2011
I was working on a project of which I've spent over six months of rigorous work on when my computer auto-hibernated due to the battery power level being insufficient. Upon plugging it in 20 minutes later and re-starting VS I attempted to re-open my solution when I recieved the error "this isn't a valid solution file." I then tried to examine this file by opening it (a copy I made of it) in Notepad. though there is data in this file it isn't visible and hence I have no clue as to how I may recover this file.
Visual Studio did ask me if I wanted to recover this file when I first re-started it and I answered yes. I then closed VS, re-opened, clicked on my Solution and recieved the error that it isn't a valid solution file. I really don't know why any problem existed in the first place. Usually upon running out of power my system does fine at hybernating and then re-starting. Nothing seemed different this time except that I was running an instance of my application (Debug mode) when the computer auto-Hybernated on me.
Till yesterday I was working fine with my Project.I din install anything new, am not trying to open my solution file with a different version also.Today when i tried opening my solution, it was saying
"The Selected Fiel is not a valid solution file"
"The Operation could not be completed.Unspecified Error"
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 10.00
A form I created, was able to modify and shows when the program is run has suddenly changed in the solution explorer. Now when the form "MainMenu.vb" is highlighted in the solution explorer the icon for "view designer" vanishes from the toolbar. The "view code" shows "MainMenu.vb" but there is not any code there and only an empty "General" and "Declarations" show. The icon to the left of the "MainMenu.vb" is like a module icon not a form icon.
I have created a solution where no problems occur when debugging. After copying the complete solution to another folder i cannot debug this solution. I receive an error "Public Property DisplayName As String' and 'Public ReadOnly Property DisplayName As String' cannot overload each other because they differ only by 'ReadOnly' or 'WriteOnly'." in the web.g.vb file. I deleted the web.g.vb file and build the solution but this does not solve the problem. (The original solution debugs withoud any problem)
I have a form in my VB>NET project (2010) with some ImageList. Those images are embedded in the list with a form resource in a .resx file asdata name="xxxx.ImageStream" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64When I tried to build/run my project I get:
I am a excel vba developer, and all public functions i would put in the module. I assumed by creating a .vb rather then a module i can put all functions i use regulary throughout forms in this.however i get the error on this code
Function CopyFile(ByVal x As Integer) As String Dim FileToCopy As String Dim NewCopy As String
It shows up in the services database and when I try and start it I receive a Access denied Error 5 error.I've tried using the local system account to run the serivce and an administrator account. Neither work. I also tried adding the local serivce account and the system acount as owners, also without success
Below is my code, but when i send the message thru client socket i receive Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name: size
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim serverStream As NetworkStream = clientSocket.GetStream() Dim outStream As Byte() = _ System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("0800822000000000000004000000000000000920092126012345001")
I have created an application which listens for strings being sent to my pc from a remote unit. I now need to add the function of sending strings back to the remote unit on a button press. I've searched for ages to find a solution but I'm not knowledgeable enough yet with vb.net to solve this solution.
I'm getting the error with the line opensock2 = New IO.StreamWriter(client.GetStream) saying its not connected. So I seem to need to pass the connection from the background worker to the button click, or have it somewhere else in the code to make it accessible. [Code]
I am having a problem that I keep getting the following error when I try to run my program.I am trying to make a circle the size of the value of FrameSize.A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll
This is the details of the error:
System.InvalidOperationException was unhandled
Message=An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control '' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on. Source=DreamCatcher[code]......
I have found lots of posts on the web citing this problem but none of them have solutions, please could someone shed some light on this and help me find a solution otherwise my applicvation will lose a lot of the functionality I have planned?
I have produced a program in VB5 and I have designed a report in crystalreports (4.6). I want to click a button on a form in the program and viewthe report in a view window not in the CR4.6 editor.
I am using the following code to try to call the report however when ittries to start I get a 20536 - Incorrect log on procedures.Additional information:I'm running Win XPI have crystal report control 4.6 selected in the project components menuI have put a CR control on the formI have crystal report control 4.6 selected in the references menu If fixed will this open the report in the viewer window rather than the fullCR editor? (that's what I want)
When I run this function I receive the error "Incorrect syntax near ','. When I click OK, the data is transferred to the database with the event_date values all set to 01/01/00 00:00:00. Eventhough, it is 09/09/2009 and 19/03/2009

I am creating a programming that is sending info for one pc to another over RF. The desktop show create a xml file. It writes some of the info but not all. I receive a Target Invocation Exception Error. I realize I need to slow down the incoming Data. I want to use a timer to slow it down.
It is saved on my desktop for easy access.I can close the program. I can click the solution to open it right back up, no problems.I then zip my file (also to the desktop)
My problem: I moved the original file (Project A) to another folder and extracted the unzipped Project A onto the desktop. When I open the new Project A's solution file, nothing happens besides VB starting up. It doesn't show me anything.
I have been trying to open a solution file downloaded from my class for the past two days. When I open the assignment file on my destop to access the solution file, it's not there. I have the variables design, obj, bin, and others but not the .sln file which is the one that I need. How can I fix that problem?
I am developing an application in which I need to use the tool jus like the Solution Explorer or Error List or Properties Window. Its like there have the common functionality of Floating,Dockable,Tabbed Document,Auto Hide and Hide. Can u let me know which tool in toolbox has this feature.
I am getting an error when I code a Sub for btnDelete_Click...and it's coming from my FormActionHandler. Here is the code in my FormActionHandler:
Public Shared Function DeleteVendor(ByVal oldVendor As Vendor, ByVal newVendor As Vendor) As Boolean Dim aServiceFactory As PayableAppServiceFactory = PayableAppServiceFactory.GetInstance() Dim aVendorService As VendorService = aServiceFactory.GetServiceInstance(PayableAppServiceFactory.SERVICE_NAME.Vendor) Return aVendorService.DeleteVendor(oldVendor, newVendor) End Function
why i cant see the Form Design?and when i double-click the Form1.vb on the Solution Explorer i got error:does anyone here encounter this probz before?how to fix this.. (should i reinstall vbnet?)
I'm creating a program (Which will eventually be a service) which loops a section of code which downloads files from a variety of FTP servers.All files are succesfully downloaded on the first iteration, however after this the download fails with the following error..."The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive."Curiously, the error does not occur if the loop only downloads the same file from the same Ftp server. It only occurs when 2 or more files are downloaded.I use the following code...
Dim fwr As FtpWebRequest = CType(FtpWebRequest.Create(Supplier.FTP_Address & Supplier.FilePath & Supplier.FromFile), FtpWebRequest) 'Set credentials fwr.Credentials = New NetworkCredential(Supplier.Username, Supplier.Password)
1)Send a request to an external hardware by SerialPort1.write.
2)Receive this information in SerialPort1_DataReceived.
3)Set this information (integer from 0 to 31) on UserInterface (like cell phone signal level....)
How to pass level information to this graphical subroutine without receive cross - thread error?
======================== Serial request ======================== Private Sub Timer_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer_Livello_Segnale.Tick SerialPort1.Write("AT+CSQ" & vbCrLf)
i have this project in TFS, and someone else from another computer changed the solution file's name. Now when i try to open it, i cant. It gives ne this error -"This project (xxx.sln) cannot be opened from source control because it was created by a version of Microsoft Visual Studio that is incompatible with this one.If this is the case, you may be able to open it from source control using that version of Microsoft Visual Studio, and then use Microsoft Visual Studio to open the local copy."
I dont have a local copy cause i deleted it. Reason being i wanted to get eveything new from the server. How can i open this project now?
I recently built a program in VB 2010 that calls an image file from my hard drive. I have found that by deleting or moving the file causes the program to shut down.The code to call the image is as follows:
aTileSheet.LoadBitmap("C:Documents and Settingsimagefile.jpg", 32, 32)
I remember when I was working with C#, there was a way to add a file (such as a Jpeg) to the solution itself.While I can add a file with the "Add Existing Item" command, I am at a loss for how to use it from the solution. If there is some way to add an outside file so that it will be a part of the program after building it, or if this is even possible, I using s dynamicbitmap command (as found from this website ) to use the image. If this effects the results, let me know that too.
I apparently didn't save the project I was working on as a "solution" file, and I all I have are two separate files.[code]I only have those two files. The code is there, but the solution explorer lists nothing, and I have found no option to just simply open up my project after saving it so I can work on it again. I see no design. I really just want to see my project like it was before.
[code]I can see the flash file, and I can send from Vb to the flash file , but i can't recieve anything from flash file to Vb using fscommand. The flash is taking from a example , and here the vb exe file works.I have made my project in V.S8
I'm looking for a simple tool, that accepts a path, scans folders, and creates a solution (sln) file with all the projects found.Setting project dependencies automatically would be a big plus for the tool from me.
I've recently had an issue at work where I have lost my solution files to my projects, but I still have the executables that have been produced by the projects / solution (yes, my fault for not making better backups). Is there any software out there or any way of decompiling the executable back into a solution / project file??? IF yes, fantastic! If not, it just means I can cross it off as an option!
