Greetings to everybody,
It seems I cannot get the Firebird DDEX provider to be installed correctly.
I've used the manual method (before a working setup came out) and the new setup
that has been made for the different VS versions.
Whatever method I use, it seems that the provider cannot stay registered in
Visual Studio continuously. After a few sessions, the provider isn't displayed
anymore. Server-explorer connections with this provider are still there, but
throw an error on opening.
* Datatools in the gac -> it's there
* Provider in the gac -> it's there
* machineconfig 32-bit and 64-bit for .NET v4.0.30319 contains both an
entry
* Registry files are still there
Every time, I try manual install steps and/or the setup to get the provider
back and start VS2010/VS2012 with the /resetpckgs option (I need it since I'm
working with EF 5) and it seems to restore the registration to visual studio.
To be frank, I am still unable to recognize the exact step that solves the
problem (temporarily)and every time I just try to reset everything back to zero
(what it would look like if firebird DDEX-provider wasn't installed). For this
problem to appear, it could as well take up to 30 windows restarts or just even
one. I also noticed that this never happens "in-between". The provider only
goes missing after a restart of windows, but not vs2012 or vs2010.
Does anyone have similar problems?
p.s: I am sorry if the format of this mail doesn't match the conventions for
