    Designer problem - assembly is missing

    Hi,

    I am experiencing problem with designer in VB2008 Express. I installed the designer module but always get the following error msg after I click CONNECT button in the server explorer. Test connection is OK.

    I am using the latest version of SQLite.net  - 1.60.

     Any ideas, please?

     BTW: Many thanks for this really great piece of sw.

     Petr

    I'm having the same problem, but only with Visual Web Developer 2008 - everything works fine on VC# 2008 Express.

    I managed to make it all work by installing Reflector and an addin called reflexil. Then I changed the reference to Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data in the SQLite.Designer.dll to point to "9.0.0.0". Saved it (delayed sign), re-signed it and voila! It works :-)

    Re: Designer problem - assembly is missing

    Thank you for the great suggestion.

    Would you mind elaborating on how exactly you resigned the dll? 

    I opened the dll with Reflector & the reflexil addin and the edit to SQLite.Designer.dll to point to "9.0.0.0" was easy enough.

    But I'm unfamiliar with resigning and can't seem to figure out how to "resign" the file properly using reflexil's save options or Sn.exe from the command line.

    I tried using the patched and unsigned dll with the installer but it threw an error saying that it required a signed dll.

    He probably got the signature file from the source code and re-signed it from that.

    That did it!  Thanks now I have full designer suppor in Visual Web Developer 2008 Express

    I found the key in the source from Source Force, edited and resigned the dll.

    The resigned dll and the key I used are attached.

    I am new with VWD. I downloaded the attached file but I do not know where to put the file and get the designer within VWD.

     

    Thank you for your help.
