Problem with Visual Studio integration

Hi,
We are still trying to package up linq connect for network deployment and have hit another issue while testing.
It would appear that visual studio integration wont occur when using the below command line:
/TYPE=CUSTOM INSTALLATION /VERYSILENT /COMPONENTS="*VsIntegration,*Entity,*LinqRuntime,*ModelerTool,*WebProviders,*SSIS,*EntLib" /NOFEEDBACK /NORESTART
Are you able to provide any indication as to what the issue is or if there is another option to use on the command line to tick/select the visual studio integration that would be great.
Kind regards,
Sulphy

Please specify the following information:
- the exact product you are trying to install;
- its version;
- the edition and version of Visual Studio installed on your computer;
- what exactly is not available in Visual Studio after installation (e.g., toolbox components, LinqConnect Model via Add->New Item, etc.);
- have you tried to install it without using a command line - was the Visual Studio integration successful?
/TYPE=CUSTOM INSTALLATION /VERYSILENT /COMPONENTS="*VsIntegration,*Entity,*LinqRuntime,*ModelerTool,*WebProviders,*SSIS,*EntLib" /NOFEEDBACK /NORESTART
We have done this installation on example of dotConnect for Oracle Professional 8.1.55 and all selected components have been installed correctly - the integration to Visual Studio 2010 and 2012 was successful.

the exact product you are trying to install: LinqConnect Pro
- its version: v4.4.360
- the edition and version of Visual Studio installed on your computer: MS Visual Studio 2010 Professional
- what exactly is not available in Visual Studio after installation: The visual studio integration i.e. From within Visual Studio > Tools > (Both Entity Developer and LinqConnect are not listed)
- have you tried to install it without using a command line - was the Visual Studio integration successful? Yes, if done normally everything is fine. If I understand correctly from my colleague if he allows the GUI to appear (when triggered via the command line) he can't get the VS integration option ticked in the install options.

Please try this installation command which installs all LinqConnect components:
Code: Select all
linqconnect44pro.exe /TYPE=FULL /VERYSILENT /NOFEEDBACK /NORESTART
If you are interested only in particular components, please list them. And we will construct the corresponding custom installation command for you.

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback. I'll pass that on and ask my colleague to try. As per the example above at the start of the thread the below are the specific components that are being requested:
*VsIntegration,
*Entity,
*LinqRuntime,
*ModelerTool,
*WebProviders,
*SSIS,
*EntLib"
As far as I can tell the only one that doesn't get installed when these options are passed is the Visual Studio integration, the rest are fine.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I've got some feedback from my colleague using the below install command line
Code: Select all
linqconnect44pro.exe /TYPE=FULL /VERYSILENT /NOFEEDBACK /NORESTART
The feedback that I have is that the Help Library Manager appears asking where to store the content for the help files, even though the switch /VERYSILENT has been used.
So ideally we'd like to be able to go back to specifying which elements should be installed which would eliminate prompting our users for further action.
I think we are pretty much there if we can get the Visual Studio integration option to install when passing the parameters via the command line.
