Installed Vs 2008 Pro (vs2005 still installed) about a week ago and everything was running smoothly. As of yesterday I can't do anything that has to do with the Ajax control toolkit.

I can't drag and drop the controls into pages, since that throws a "the operation could not be completed" msgbox. If I paste the controls as text, and try to run them in Vs, they don't get recognized and throws errors. I downloaded the correct version of the toolkit, the one for net 3.5.

This is no fun at all as I should finish some minor stuff by Monday, but now I can't use the nice touches of the toolkit...any ideas on this?

Cheers!

You might verify that you're actually using the 3.5 Toolkit in your toolbox.  Also, check your web.config and make sure that it's configured the AJAX 3.5 and not AJAX 1.0.

The toolkit referenced is the 3.5 and the web.config is only referencing the ajax 1.0 as:

<bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-1.1.0.0" newVersion="3.5.0.0"/>

The error I get if I F5 is "Error 19 Unknown server tag 'ajaxtoolkit:accordion'. C:\inetpub\wwwroot\infcntrl\companyInfo\Default.aspx 17"
 

I'm guessing Careed is on the right track, since I can run the controls If I fire up the .sln in the control toolkit folder.

(and posting the below message twice, thus editing this) I get the below error

Now I get the error, if I try to run the solution like:

Line 1:  <%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="accordion.aspx.vb" Inherits="accordion" %>
Line 2:  
Line 3:  <%@ Register
Line 4:      Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit"
Line 5:      Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit"

Source File: /ci/accordion.aspx    Line: 3

Assembly Load Trace: The following information can be helpful to determine why the assembly 'AjaxControlToolkit' could not be loaded.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

Can't find the above entry in the registry, should I add enableLog under the above path???

Helps a LOT if I include the tookit in the bin folder..............and the reference to the toolkit in the page........

Also, you should be able to create an AJAX Toolkit project.  It should be one of your options in VS.  This way, you don't have to modify your regular ASP.NET website to accommodate AJAX.

I used to be able to do that in Vs 2005. In Vs 2008 I can't find the same option. Probably missed something during install, but since it's working I'll try to finish this on time...

 Cheers!
