Hi Peter and thanks for your problem report. I was unable to verify it (ie. install finishes correctly) on: - WinXP Pro SP2 - MySQL 5.0.24BK (and many other versions...) - connector/NET 5.0.1 beta from our site - VS 2005 pro I checked msi package with Orca but found nothing suspicious.

Thank you for the report. How to repeat: try to install MySQL Tools for Visual Studio Connector/NET itself has not sense here.

I tried to install to directory different from default.

Same result if I try to install in default location. But when I tried to reinstall package installer found previous installation, removed it and ended with same error. I use free version of Visual Studio.

I have the same problem, in the following case: WinXP Home SP 2 VC++ 2005 Express (not Pro) MySQL Server 5.0.18 MySql Connector/Net 5.0.1 with machine.config edited as instructed MySQL Tools for Visual Studio 1.0.1 When the problem first arose for me, I had not yet found the instructions about Connector/Net. I had 1.0.7 installed. I then replaced it with 5.0.1, made the changes to machine.config, but the problem persists. I see the warning message whenever I either install or remove MySQL Tools for VS 1.0.1 package.

Hello all. I am sorry to inform you that the plugin only works with VS standard or pro. It will not work with any Express editions and that is a limitation of the VS product, not our plugin.We will add note about this where appropriate.
Description: Tried to isntall MySQL Tools for Visual Studio 1.0.1 beta. All versions: MySQL Tools for Visual Studio 1.0.1 beta, MySQL Server 5.0.22 MySQL Connector/Net 5.0.1.0 with machine.config edited as instructed by Reggie Burnett Visual C# Express Edition Install package appears to run fine, then hangs and then presents message box with this message "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete cannot be run. Contact you support personnel or package vendor." Then, the Finish page of the installation comes up telling me that the Tools could not be installed. How to repeat: Have Windows XP machine with the versions of the software described above and try to install the MySQL Tools for Visual Studio.
