Visual Studio 11 ALM Advances

Happy new year. Over the last several months since //BUILD/, I’ve published multiple blog posts outlining advancements made in Visual Studio 11, from languages to the .NET Framework to IDE productivity to platform-specific tooling .  I’m concluding this five-post series with a look at some of the work that’s gone into making Visual Studio 11 a premier system for Application Lifecycle Management (ALM).  Since many of these features were first announced at TechEd North America 2011, many individuals from my division have spoken and blogged quite eloquently about the new capabilities, so I’ll use this opportunity simply to highlight a few of these new features and to point you to the other resources they’ve created to describe them in more depth. The ALM offering in Visual Studio 11 was designed to enable improved collaboration amongst team members, accelerate the adoption of agile processes, and improve the cycle that links development and operations.  I’ll take a look at a few examples of how Visual Studio 11 achieves this

Installation of Silverlight Fails with a generic error 1603 "Installation failed"

Issue:  Installation of Silverlight fails with a generic error 1603 “installation failed” after the installation progress shows 99% complete. Cause: To find the root cause open the SilverlightMSI.log from the %temp% folder and it shows an error “Cannot create HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMozillaPlugins@Microsoft.com/NpCtrl,version=1.0”. This is because a MacAfee ‘Access Protection rule’ has been set on ‘Mozilla & FireFox files and settings’ which blocks Silverlight installer from creating the registry key.

My CRM 2011 Validation Framework

I’ve been working on a validation framework for Dynamics CRM 2011.  I’ve published the first cut of the code.  It’s a little rough still, but I’ve been promising the sample to a few customers so I wanted to get the first working version out there.  Right now, it only supports regular expression validation.  However, if you read the home page, you will see how you can get involved in shaping the future of the sample.
