Error setting up S#arp Architecture 1.6 project from the Visual Studio 2010 project template in a 64bit O/S

Question

I'm trying to get a brand new Sharp Architecture 1.6 project set up. My environment is Windows 7 64bit, running Visual Studio 2010. I have followed the instructions provided in the VS2010_ReadMe.txt.

In VS2010 I do File | New | Project, select S#arp Architecture Application, give it a name and hit 'OK'. And I receive the following errors:

"A problem was encountered creating the sub project 'sharptest.Core'. A project with that name is already opened in the solution."

"A problem was encountered creating the sub project 'sharptest.ApplicationServices'. A project with that name is already opened in the solution."

... (it continues like this for each project)

I have not found any clear documentation regarding this issue. I would appreciate help from someone who has successfully gotten a project based on the sharp architecture project template up and running successfully on a 64bit O/S running vs2010. Thanks.

Answer 1

I had the same issue. However, my issue was resolved from creating the project in a different folder. I receive the error when I try to create the solution in

C:\\Users\\Sam\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2010\\Projects\\TestProject

Changing this to

C:\\Code\\TestProject

and I don't receive the error.

Do you have any subversion programs like AnkhSVN installed? It would be worth uninstalling this and trying again. Best advice I can offer.
