I'm very confused and i was hoping to get some insight into this. I have been working on a project for a few months and everything was going great until i decided to upload the UI to TFS for a front-end dev to work on.
This is multi layered project consisting of Data, Business and UI. I have uploaded many projects before but never had this issue. I have taken a screen capture to help explain the problem. As it's my first time running into this issue, I'm not sure how to explain.
Any help on this would be great, thank you in advanced.
Check your check in files, looks like the build templates have been accidentally included.

I've already posted in PlayMaker forum, but I'm not getting any responses. Hoping someone that had the same problem here would see and shed some light.
I am reviving an old project. It's been left untouched for 5 years. So the Unity version is still in 5.2.1f1 and PlayMaker version 1.7.8.3p2
My problem is I cannot open a Custom Action Script. It is showing Couldn't find Action Script in the error. The script won't show if searched in project folders.
The game runs though, and the other PlayMaker preset ActionScripts I can access.
Wondering if I am missing something? Please see the screenshot below. Thank you

I now have an answer. All the actions were kept inside a single script. Therefore, cannot be searched in the project view. I found it by guessing, but it would be obvious to find it by making a deep file browser search.
I work on a team using TFS to manage a C# project. I have 2 development computers, a high end desktop and a laptop.
Ok, the TFS server is located many states away. The other developers are around the globe. I work out of my house. I really didn't think I needed to include this when I said "I am on a team"... Guess I was wrong. I also have no ability to make any changes to the TFS Server and no one outside of my office will change anything anywhere to help me do this.
I work on both. When I switch from one to the other, I have to remember to copy the files (which I often forget or don't have time to do).
I thought I could put the source files on OneDrive/DropBox and edit them there. It worked fine for one computer, but the other said:
"The solution appears to be under source control, but its binding information cannot be found. Because it is not possible to recover this missing information automatically, the projects whose bindings are missing will be treated as not under source control."
Any idea how I might fix this (doesn't anyone have ideas on this???) - or other ways I might solve this?
I just like the idea of working on my desktop, but being able to grab my laptop and run when I have to.
Links to existing answers are appreciated, but I couldn't figure out what to search on that addressed this (although I am sure it has been asked before.)
Thanks!
Trying to use a share for your local workspace is going to be something that runs into little quirks all along the way.
I would recommend using the Shelve feature. You would Shelve from one computer, then unshelve from the other. It basically takes your chosen changes and moves them onto the server such that you then can unshelve them onto the other computer. It is a way to save your changes to the server without checking them into the project. You have your own shelvesets that don't effect the main branch.
Alternative : Use Git
TFS : Map your project which is in TFS into any folder on your local. And check it in when you develop. And in other computer, press Get Latest button by clicking right click of your mouse to solution.
EDIT:
If you want to use TFS, go TFS Express without download or setup.
Why you need to copy the files instead of just use TFS checked in and get latest version?
This will guaranty you have the latest version of code on both machine without problem.
Please also checked in your projects and solution files into TFS, and you don't miss anything.
If you think it will affect others, you can have your own branch to working on.
The solution I have so far (not ideal, but works) is to use OneDrive (or DropBox - I just use OneDrive since it has more storage). On the laptop, I downloaded the entire project. All the TFS flags are set for the laptop, but the desktop can see them just as well. I can code on the desktop, and as long as I hit "save all" before I leave, I can race out the door with my laptop and work remotely, with all the current code.
The drawbacks of this approach are:
1) When I open the project on the desktop - it complains since all the TFS references are for the laptop. But only when I open it.
2) I have to use the laptop to get current and push changed files. Not a big deal.
3) I can't really work on both the laptop and the desktop at the same time - but don't really care since I don't need to and that wasn't the goal anyway.
The benefits:
1) I don't have to remember to copy from one location to another, check for changed files, etc.
2) As long as I have my laptop, I can work. No need to check in code, shelve code, or play any other silly games in order to keep them in sync.
3) I can race out last minute and always know I have all the code in whatever state it was in.
In the long run, I would still like a slightly better solution. I am guessing that I could tell OneDrive not to sync the TFS folders/files on each machine and then that would eliminate the message I get when I start on the desktop, but at this time, it's not worth the effort to figure out how to do this (although, if you know, feel free to comment.) But overall, I am now quite happy.

Since I always have my laptop when at the desktop, but the opposite is not true, this works for me.
I've been trying to find an answer to this for weeks. Hopefully you are able to help me out! :)
I've got a C# application. It has multiple classes and multiple Forms. The forms also have images on them in PictureBoxes.
These images are all stored in an Assets folder inside the bin folder i.e. /bin/Assets.
When developing, I run the application in Debug mode.
I have looked on YouTube and all areas of the internet to find how to create an installer for my application. I see a majority of posts about ClickOnce deployment, which looks like it's what I want. The issue is that the ClickOnce wizard asks you where to install the application:
I do not have a server to host the application on (I have tried examples I've seen such as \localhost\myfolder\myApplication) I do, however, run my own website through a NameCheap host where I could provide a link to the application for users to download. I'm not quite sure how to set this up though.
I do not want the users to install from a CD
I don't know how to do the File Share method
This is the first obstacle. Regardless of what I choose, I cannot get the setup to work. I think the big issue is that I can't find how to include my Assets in the project and I don't know where to install the application.
The next obstacle, is that when users download my application, I would like to be able to push out an update, and have them have the update automatically (or only need to restart the application to get the update). I do not want them to have to re-download the application every time there is an update, as there are updates several times per week.
Again, I believe ClickOnce handles this but since I cannot even get to this step, I am not sure.
So, in the end, this is the use-case:
User is able to download the application from a website. Once application is downloaded, all further updates to the application are pushed automatically or only require a restart of the application to obtain.
I have gone through all the documentation on ClickOnce as well. Specifically this link. My issue is on #4.
I hope you are able to help, thank you!
Sharing the installer should not be an issue you could simply do that through Dropbox.
You can host your Updater on Dropbox as well but anytime you have new Updater replace the old one so the web link remains same and that it is because you need to know the the Updater link in advance to put it in the original installer.
You mentioned that you have a website through NameCheap, I believe you could use that instead of Dropbox here is a youtube links that might help.

I personally don't use ClickOnce but I use A Microsoft Windows Installer and I develop my own updater. ClickOnce is easier use for you at this point but later in future, you could explore other ways.
Wish my answer is clear if not just let me know,
Good luck
I am developing an ASP.NET MVC 5 application for a while now.
After an update that changed a lot the database structure, the UI has gone crazy. I think this is a IIS issue since it is only on the client's machine and I am not able to replicate it, but I don't know where to start looking for it.
I have tried to restart everything, but with no resolve.
This is going on for days and I am out of ideas.
As it can be seen in the picture, the CSS is not working correctly, the pictures are not showing and the Resource data (for switching the language) is crazy.
I don't know if the update did something or not, but it shouldn't since I changed the models and controllers only. I did delete some screens, but this shouldn't impact.
If I deploy it on a fresh machine there is no problem.
I know this question is really ambiguous, but I have looked into the cshtml files are I could't find errors and I do not know what info / code to give. I can update if someone can help.
Update:
Thank you for all your responses. Sorry for my late one. I didn't expect answers so fast. Here is how it looks on mine:
The bigger problem is that I do not have access to their server. I am working with somebody else on the phone and they send me pictures.
UPDATE 2:
It didn't work with CTRL+F5 and clearing browsing history (I didn't thought about this since it is the same on two laptops they are using to access the app). They are not allowed to install other browsers than Mozilla and Internet Explorer. They are using Mozilla by default. Opening the app in Internet Explorer improved the situation. The Resource works and the CSS is improved, but the pictures still aren't showing.
This is how it looks on IE:
They use a laptop as a server and access the app on 2 other. It is a temporary solution until a server will be bought.
From what I'm seeing online, it seems the only thing in VS that auto-increments the Version numbers is if it's a website. For applications, it seems you either manually have to do it or you have to have a post build event and call a function or small app to do it for you. But, that's only what I'm seeing when I google it and when I've tried messing around with it myself. My questions are:
Can an application auto-increment the version number on a successful build without having to do the afore mentioned? Like a checkbox hidden deep in VS or something?
If no, is there a way to Publish an application rather than it being published as a website?
If it can, is that even the write way to go?
I know I've seen some instances where you can use the install package to increment the number, but my boss would like to start seeing how many times we build the applications so he can show to our customer the work being put into the application. If anyone can help me, that'd be great. Hope you all are having a good day. Thanks.

Why not just publish your change logs and/or bug/feature database?
