Tried creating several different kinds of projects but couldn't get the icon to appear on any of them.

Recommendation: Please try installing VS 2010 SP 1 and let us know if the bug still happening.

I installed SP1 and it didn't make any difference. I suspect that there is something wrong with my PC as it is having unknown security errors with IIS/NET modules. I don't know what the problem is so I won't be able to retry until I re-image the PC (which won't be for ages).

I did ask for an update to the documentation. So if you do that then you can close this bug. I'll start a new bug if the VS10 still doesn't work after a re-image.

Have you updated the documentation to list the options that can be used for those people who want to edit the web.config by hand?

Hi David, I found a post in one of the official documentation pages which looks pretty complete about it. Please check it out and let us know if this helps for the web configuration without using the web config tool of the Connector. Here's the link http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-net-tutorials-asp-roles.html

Not really. The following page covers all the options you need if you were using a connectionString: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/connector-net-connection-options.html So we would need something similar for your implementation of Session State Provider, Membership provider, etc In fact the following page gives a few nice examples, but the examples don't provide an inclusive list of all the options (only the ones you need to use Devart). http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/mysql/articles/aspproviders.html

Hi David, I did some research about this subject and I found a lot of documentation that includes really good information on it. Also in our site there are a couple more resources besides the one I mentioned. We as developers don't have direct access over the documentation that is published on the site but we do have a really good resource that is the blogs for the product. This could be the place were we can put together all the information regarding the providers model that could be more helpful for the users. Here are the others links: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-net-programming-asp-provider.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-net-tutorials-asp-provider-session-state.... http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-net-tutorials-asp-provider-profile.html Hope you can find this helpful. Regards.

Well perhaps you understand my problem. I too, had to do an awful lot of research to find the answers. There are plenty of forums filled with questions about how one configures this driver; this information really ought to be centralised on your website. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/connector-net.html In fact I was originally looking for documentation when I found your plugin! When MySQL was run by MySQL all the developers could update the documentation. Would if help if we change the category to "MySQL Connector/Net -Documentation"?

Bug Category changed to Documentation since this is a documentation issue. The user requested to centralize the documentation for the options available to set the web.conf file; either by using the Connector Web Configuration tool or by hand, which is the information that he sees less completed. We as developers don't have access to update the official documentation, that's why we're forwarding it to the documentation team. Please email us if you need any further information.

As requested, pages with information for manually editing the web.config file are now referenced on http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/connector-net-website-config.html.
