How you can resolve Enterprise Library 5 Visual Studio 2012 error: "Could not locate the Enterprise Library binaries required to launch the configuration console"
- When right-clicking on my App.config to access the Enterprise Library configuration tool, I kept getting this error:
- after installing
- VS.net 2012;
- Enterprise library 5.0.414 through nuget (why does nuget install only this older version?);
- the unofficial Enterprise Library Extension vsix updated for VS.net 2012 published by the Enterprise Library team here.
-
What fixed this error for me was (YMMV, November 2012):
- installing Enterprise Library 5.0 optional update 1 (=5.0.515) using this approach:
- msiexec /i "Enterprise Library 5.0.msi" REINSTALLMODE=vomus REINSTALL=ALL
- – Adding to the vs.net 2012 SLN file, at the end of "Global" (immediately before "EndGlobal")
- GlobalSection(ExtensibilityGlobals) = postSolution
EnterpriseLibraryConfigurationToolBinariesPath = C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Enterprise Library 5.0\Bin
EndGlobalSection

Thanks for posting this nice article
also fixed this by installing the correct version of the enterprise library in vs2012. I was trying to use the v5 console with v6 in my project…installed the v6 console from here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=38789
and that resolved the issue
Thanks for posting. It helped a lot!
