pjwhams Posted - Jul 25 2016 : 09:13:43 AM
I've just updated to 2107 (from 2102). Before updating I cleared the cache and hit 'rebuild symbols'. When I load VS2015 (update 3) all the items in the VisualAssist menu are disabled. If I roll back to 2102 then I do get the menu back

How do I restore functionality?
thanks
Paul

The build 2107 failure to load was case=98983.
case=98983 is fixed in build 2108.
sean Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 6:17:45 PM
Thanks for trying.

Build 2 broke it again. I put build 1 back in place. Hope that helps.
sean Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 4:33:01 PM
Thanks for trying it and reporting back.
pjwhams Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 4:28:29 PM
No, this 2nd version goes back to the original broken behaviour of showing the VA menu as disabled. I've rolled back to 2071.1 which is working ok for me.
sean Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 4:15:47 PM
I screwed up version numbers, but the links are valid. The dll is versioned correctly as 2107.2 but the zip is named 2701. Sorry for the confusion.
sean Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 3:00:02 PM
Thanks for trying the 2701.1 version of VA_X.dll.

If you don't mind trying one more version, please do the following (assuming VA 2701 is installed):
- Locate the VA installation directory as described here: https://docs.wholetomato.com/default.asp?W105
- Download the 2701.2 version of VA_X.dll from: http://www.wholetomato.com/binaries/VA_X.2701.2.zip
- rename the existing version (2701.1) of VA_X.dll to VA_X.dl1
- Extract the new version of VA_X.dll from the downloaded zip to the VA installation directory.

Does the problem recur or is it still fixed with this version?

If the problem recurs, then delete the new version and restore the previous (2701.1).
sean Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 10:11:43 AM
Great -- thanks for rechecking.
[email protected] Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 10:10:49 AM
OK, sorry. That now works. I don't know what happened, but after I said it didn't work I double checked the version on the VA_X.dll in the installation folder and it was still the 2107.0 build. So extracted the zip file again and moved the dll to the installation folder, verifying that it was the 2107.1 build. Then I opened VS2015 and everything was enabled. Guess I haven't had enough coffee yet this morning (PDT, 7AM here). Thanks for the help.

I'm sorry to say that did not work for me.
pjwhams Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 04:33:02 AM
It's fixed the problem for me too, thanks!
sean Posted - Jul 26 2016 : 01:41:44 AM
We have received word that the 2701.1 dll (from the above referenced zip) addresses the problem for at least one user.
sean Posted - Jul 25 2016 : 7:11:56 PM
If anyone would like to try a test to help identify the problem (that we are not able to repro), please follow these steps to install a test dll:

Install build 2107.
Locate the VA installation directory as described here: https://docs.wholetomato.com/default.asp?W105
Download http://www.wholetomato.com/binaries/VA_X.2701.1.zip
Extract the new version of VA_X.dll from the downloaded zip to the VA installation directory.

Let us know if this test dll has the same problem or if VA loads correctly with it.

Please use the Help menu not the VAssistX menu.

Can you please post your VS info in this thread (Help | About | Copy Info)? This might be the result of a conflict with another extension.
sean Posted - Jul 25 2016 : 10:59:32 AM
Sorry for the trouble. We have not been able to reproduce this problem but also received similar reports via our support system. We have removed build 2107 from the downloads page while we investigate. 2107 will remain available via the archive since it does appear to load fine for many users.
[email protected] Posted - Jul 25 2016 : 10:26:25 AM
I just installed build 2107 this morning and had the same problem. Visual Assist appears to be disabled. Only a few menu items under the VisualX menu are enabled. And none of the VA functionality seems to be working. What is going on?
