Error: this template attempted to load component assembly 'NuGet.VisualStudio.Interop, Version=*, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=*'. For more information on this problem and how to enable this template, please see documentation on Customizing Project Templates.

I was getting this error in newly released and installed Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate on my system when I tried to create any Web Application.


Possible Solution:

 i) Open Visual Studio > Tools > Extensions and Updates > select 'NuGet Package Manager' and uninstall it.

 ii) Open 'http://nuget.org' and you will see an 'Install NuGet' button, download it and install it on your system.

 iii) Re-open the Visual Studio and now, this error will no longer visible to you.

    I was getting the same error but when I followed step 1 above it wasn't there to uninstall. Step 2 resolved the issue. Many thanks

    Error: this template attempted to load component assembly 'NuGet.VisualStudio.Interop...

    WTB a VS 2012 update... The package manager wasn't there for me either, but simply downloading it and installing it fixed the error. Thank you very much!

    (Including error message in response to hopefully bump this in the search results.)

    Worked!!! I actually installed it from the extensions window in Studio but that one produced the same error. So I uninstalled, then steps 2 & 3 and worked like a charm!

    I think Microsoft testers should put in more effort to nab these issues before they arise.
    They assume a perfect environment where all tools are already installed.

Migrating database from ASP.NET Identity to ASP.NET Core Identity

Image
As you know ASP.NET Core Identity (table structure) is different from what we had earlier in ASP.NET Identity. Actually the identity system which we have today with .NET Core is very mature and continuously evolved be it ASP.NET Membership, ASP.NET Identity 1, ASP.NET Identity 2 and now ASP.NET Core Identity. Recently I had to migrate few application to ASP.NET Core and similar its identity database. Because the table schema is changed, i had to re-think and create migration script which I would like to share with you today. It is very simple and easy, just three step and I had everything ready: STEP 1 : Change name of existing tables STEP 2 : Create ASP.NET Core Identity tables STEP 3 : Migrate data from old tables (ASP.NET Identity) to new tables (ASP.NET Core Identity) Script:  https://gist.github.com/itorian/c699e8534b392a6c726ec66c48100072 You should also watch my video, where I demoed migration.
