Неопознанная ошибка 0x80004005 visual studio - ErrorsMaster.ru - большая энциклопедия ошибок и их решений

Недавно я сначала обновил свою операционную систему «Windows 7» на «Windows 10», а затем обновил свою среду разработки «Visual Studio Community» с версии 2017 на версию 2019.

После этого я попытался создать новый проект в среде «Visual Studio Community 2019» и получил ошибку «Неопознанная ошибка (Исключение из HRESULT: 0x80004005 (E_FAIL))». Англоязычный вариант текста ошибки: «Unspecified error (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004005 (E_FAIL))».

Я думаю, эта ошибка в моем случае была связана с тем, что у среды «Visual Studio Community 2019» не было каких-то прав, возможно, связанных с созданием папок или файлов.

В моем случае для решения вышеуказанной проблемы было достаточно запустить среду «Visual Studio Community 2019» от имени администратора. Для этого я открыл меню кнопки «Пуск», нашел ярлык запуска среды «Visual Studio Community 2019», нажал на этот ярлык правой кнопкой мыши и в открывшемся контекстном меню нажал пункт «Дополнительно». Открылось подменю этого пункта и в нем я нажал на пункт «Запуск от имени администратора».

Открылось окно среды «Visual Studio Community 2019». При запуске от имени администратора в правом верхнем углу окна среды появляется надпись «АДМИНИСТРАТОР» (в обычном режиме этой надписи нет). Я создал новый проект в этом режиме, ошибок не возникло. После этого я вышел из программы, удалил папку проекта для чистоты эксперимента и запустил среду «Visual Studio Community 2019» в обычном режиме. Снова создал новый проект, на этот раз всё прошло без ошибок.

Hi Saurabh,

For this particular issue, I searched some solutions below, hope they will helpful:
1. Go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows Features on or off, inside that, we had to select Internet Information Services -> Web Management Tools -> IIS 6 Management Compatibility -> IIS Metabse
and IIS 6 configuration compatibility.

2. Edit the web application’s project file with a text editor and change this line from True to False:

<UseIIS>True</UseIIS>
3. Grant IIS AppPool identity permissions to the %systemroot%inetsrvconfig

4.Run in command prompt: aspnet_regiis –i or aspnet_regiis.exe –ga

If the above doesn’t work, please use the devenv /log to start visual studio and log all activity to the log file. You can get the log file at: %APPDATA%MicrosoftVisualStudioVersionActivityLog.xml, open it in the IE to see
whether there are errors. Refer to:

Can anybody shed any light on the above error? I’ve tried with both Express and Ultimate editions of VS 2013.

I’m running 64-bit Windows 7.

Solutions to similar problems I’ve found tend to be targetting x86 rather than AnyCPU from the Solution explorer. However, I can’t even build the solution to explore it.

The new project I’m trying to build is c# ASP.net MVC.

Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. On the PC I’m using, the Documents directory and it’s contents are encrypted by default — including my IISExpress. Removing the encryption solved the problem.

Have you tried to manually install NuGet for VS 2013?

I had a similar issue, until I found that the VS 2013 setup — for some reason — did not install the NuGet package manager. After I installed it manually everything worked fine.

answered Oct 21, 2013 at 9:13

I’m running on Win 8.1 Pro (64 bits) with Visual Studio Express for web 2013

The were two problems in my machine, namely :

the applicationhost.config file in C:Users(insert your user log in name)DocumentsIISExpressconfig was not well formed. It seems this problem occurs because the .NET configuration system reads the applicationHost.config file without locking it. If the IIS configuration file is being written to while it is being read by the Windows Activation Service (WAS), that file may be corrupted. Anyhow, I binged around and downloaded a pristine copy of it.
After fixing the above problem, I subsequently encountered the same error message (unspecified error — exception from hresult: 0x80004005 (e_fail) ). I then tried to create an MVC web project via another way. I created a blank solution and added an MVC web project to it and this time the IDE spewed out a different message. The pop-up window dumped a cryptic line like so, «IIS could not read C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319Configweb.config — error». I proceeded to uninstall IIS 8.0 and re-installed the application. And voila, I can now create MVC web apps again!

Removing Read Only property from IISExpressConfig files (applicationhost, aspnet, redirection) solved the problem for me.

I had the same error.
I solved the error by running Visual Studio 2013 at «run as administrator» mode as when you use web application projects IIS Express is involved.

I tried uninstalling VS 2010 (since I don’t use it anymore) with no luck. I then connected to my work VPN and then when opening VS2013 I got a message stating it was looking for my settings file in an odd place:

C:UsersZach\SomeNetworkServersomethingsomething

I updated the path for settings under Tools > Options > Import and Export Settings (which was actually the same odd path) and both NuGet and VS2013 now seem to be working correctly.

I have no idea where it got that path but I definitely saw different behavior when I was on my work’s VPN vs not.

After two days of trying to resolve this issue.

VS 2012: All good (just disabled IIS)

VS 2013: 0x80004005: Unspecified error

VS 2015: 0x80004005: Unspecified error

IIS Express via command line: Error cannot find «My documentsIIS Expressconfigapplicationhost.config»

Solution:

Copied applicationhost.config AND redirection.config from %programfiles%IIS ExpressconfigtemplatesPersonalWebServer into the «IIS Expressconfig» folder under My Documents.

Make sure you copy the redirection.config file, it WILL NOT warn you about this, just fail with the obscure 0x80004005 error. Had to monitor file I/O to track it down.

Also open applicationhost.config in notepad and make sure that the %IIS_BIN%AppServerempty_wwwroot folder is WRITEABLE, most likely this folder is under «%programfiles%IIS Express» and thus not writeable by default.

Also quite possible you need to set %IIS_BIN% yourself to «%programfiles%IIS Express».

So:

Make sure %IIS_BIN% is set
Make sure you have BOTH config files copied into the config folder
Make sure the wwwroot is writeable
- Make sure the «empty_wwwroot» referenced in the .config matches the x86 / x64 setting in Visual Studio (VS uses x86 by default, can be changed to x64 under Project settings => Web Projects)

Visual Studio 2017 Professional on Windows 10, solution with 47 projects targeting .NET 4.5.2.

VS always rebuilds many projects in my solution even if unchanged and up to date. I this «very informative» message:

1>Project 'A' is not up to date. Error (0x80004005). 
1>------ Build started: Project: A, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------
2>Project 'B' is not up to date. Error (0x80004005). 
2>------ Build started: Project: B, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------

I cannot see any .suo files in the solution. Some projects in the solution are C# and others are VB.NET. However, as I was typing this, I notice that it is the C# projects only that throw the 0x80004005 error and compel rebuild.

Please help me solve this weird problem.

But if you change it to this:

If the above doesn’t work, please use the devenv /log to start visual studio and log all activity to the log file. You can get the log file at: %APPDATA%MicrosoftVisualStudioVersionActivityLog.xml, open it in the IE to see
whether there are errors. Refer to:

Can anybody shed any light on the above error? I’ve tried with both Express and Ultimate editions of VS 2013.

I’m running 64-bit Windows 7.

Solutions to similar problems I’ve found tend to be targetting x86 rather than AnyCPU from the Solution explorer. However, I can’t even build the solution to explore it.

The new project I’m trying to build is c# ASP.net MVC.

Have you tried to manually install NuGet for VS 2013?

I’m running on Win 8.1 Pro (64 bits) with Visual Studio Express for web 2013

The were two problems in my machine, namely :

the applicationhost.config file in C:Users(insert your user log in name)DocumentsIISExpressconfig was not well formed. It seems this problem occurs because the .NET configuration system reads the applicationHost.config file without locking it. If the IIS configuration file is being written to while it is being read by the Windows Activation Service (WAS), that file may be corrupted. Anyhow, I binged around and downloaded a pristine copy of it.
After fixing the above problem, I subsequently encountered the same error message (unspecified error — exception from hresult: 0x80004005 (e_fail) ). I then tried to create an MVC web project via another way. I created a blank solution and added an MVC web project to it and this time the IDE spewed out a different message. The pop-up window dumped a cryptic line like so, «IIS could not read C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319Configweb.config — error». I proceeded to uninstall IIS 8.0 and re-installed the application. And voila, I can now create MVC web apps again!

I updated the path for settings under Tools > Options > Import and Export Settings (which was actually the same odd path) and both NuGet and VS2013 now seem to be working correctly.

After two days of trying to resolve this issue.

VS 2012: All good (just disabled IIS)

VS 2013: 0x80004005: Unspecified error

VS 2015: 0x80004005: Unspecified error

IIS Express via command line: Error cannot find «My documentsIIS Expressconfigapplicationhost.config»

Solution:

Copied applicationhost.config AND redirection.config from %programfiles%IIS ExpressconfigtemplatesPersonalWebServer into the «IIS Expressconfig» folder under My Documents.

Make sure you copy the redirection.config file, it WILL NOT warn you about this, just fail with the obscure 0x80004005 error. Had to monitor file I/O to track it down.

Also quite possible you need to set %IIS_BIN% yourself to «%programfiles%IIS Express».

So:

Make sure %IIS_BIN% is set
Make sure you have BOTH config files copied into the config folder
Make sure the wwwroot is writeable
- Make sure the «empty_wwwroot» referenced in the .config matches the x86 / x64 setting in Visual Studio (VS uses x86 by default, can be changed to x64 under Project settings => Web Projects)

Question
Specifically Visual Studio 2012 Premium. i’m trying to create a task sequence for our developers group, but it fails everytime when it comes to installing VS. The only error code i get is 0x80004005, and the smsts.log has no errors that I can find.
I’ve already published it to the application catalog, and it installs without issue from there (the command line i’m using is «vs_premium.exe /adminfile AdminDeployment.xml /quiet /norestart»), but I cannot get it to install as part of a task sequence. When
I check the box to allow the task sequence to continue if an app fails to install, all of my other apps install fine. So is there anything I should know about VS 2012 specifically to get it to install as part of an imaging process?

p.s. I wasn’t sure what forum this question would best be suited for, so if I should ask somewhere else please let me know

Answers

Turns out it was the .net 4.5 per-requisite that was the problem. It installs fine from the VS 2012 installation package in the app catalog, but when being installed from a task sequence .net 4.5 doesn’t get install first, causing VS to error out. When
I updated our base image to include .net 4.5, VS 2012 is able to be deployed as part of the imaging process with no errors

HAYL, для начало сделайте очистку проекта(решение), потом пересобрать проект(решение).
или
попробуйте создать такой же новый проект.
Перенесите код из старого проекта.

Или попробуйте так

Способ 1. Попробуйте запустить Microsoft Visual Studio от имени администратора
Как бы просто это ни звучало, в ряде случаев это было доказано как решение для ошибки 0x80004005 в Microsoft Visual Studio. Просто щелкните правой кнопкой мыши значок Visual Studio и выберите “Запуск от имени администратора“.

Способ 2. Попробуйте запустить VS IDE в безопасном режиме и восстановить настройки по умолчанию
Как утверждает Microsoft, это один из лучших методов, который можно использовать при решении любых проблем с Visual Studio. Просто откройте командную строку Visual Studio и выполните эти команды:

Devenv.exe /SafeMode

Devenv.exe /ResetSettings

Способ 3. Проверьте, доступны ли все файлы, включенные в проект Visual Studio
Если при открытии сохраненного проекта возникает ошибка 0x80004005, велика вероятность того, что некоторые файлы проекта были удалены, переименованы или в настоящее время недоступны.

Способ 4. Убедитесь, что ваш проект VS совместим с установленной версией Visual Studio
Если ошибка 0x80004005 также может возникнуть при попытке загрузить проект, созданный с использованием более новой версии Visual Studio.

Answers

Hi Saurabh,

For this particular issue, I searched some solutions below, hope they will helpful:
1. Go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows Features on or off, inside that, we had to select Internet Information Services -> Web Management Tools -> IIS 6 Management Compatibility -> IIS Metabse
and IIS 6 configuration compatibility.

2. Edit the web application’s project file with a text editor and change this line from True to False:

<UseIIS>True</UseIIS>
3. Grant IIS AppPool identity permissions to the %systemroot%inetsrvconfig

4.Run in command prompt: aspnet_regiis –i or aspnet_regiis.exe –ga

If the above doesn’t work, please use the devenv /log to start visual studio and log all activity to the log file. You can get the log file at: %APPDATA%MicrosoftVisualStudioVersionActivityLog.xml, open it in the IE to see
whether there are errors. Refer to:

Solutions to similar problems I’ve found tend to be targetting x86 rather than AnyCPU from the Solution explorer. However, I can’t even build the solution to explore it.

I had a similar issue, until I found that the VS 2013 setup — for some reason — did not install the NuGet package manager. After I installed it manually everything worked fine.

The were two problems in my machine, namely :

the applicationhost.config file in C:Users(insert your user log in name)DocumentsIISExpressconfig was not well formed. It seems this problem occurs because the .NET configuration system reads the applicationHost.config file without locking it. If the IIS configuration file is being written to while it is being read by the Windows Activation Service (WAS), that file may be corrupted. Anyhow, I binged around and downloaded a pristine copy of it.
After fixing the above problem, I subsequently encountered the same error message (unspecified error — exception from hresult: 0x80004005 (e_fail) ).

Removing Read Only property from IISExpressConfig files (applicationhost, aspnet, redirection) solved the problem for me.

I had the same error.
I solved the error by running Visual Studio 2013 at «run as administrator» mode as when you use web application projects IIS Express is involved.

I got the same Unspecified error when creating a new Web Application with MVC. I then tried to install the NuGet Package Manager for VS 2013 and got a little bit more detail on what was happening:

I updated the path for settings under Tools > Options > Import and Export Settings (which was actually the same odd path) and both NuGet and VS2013 now seem to be working correctly.

I have no idea where it got that path but I definitely saw different behavior when I was on my work’s VPN vs not.

I corrected this error by repairing IIS express. You can as well reinstall IIS express.

After two days of trying to resolve this issue.

VS 2012: All good (just disabled IIS)

VS 2013: 0x80004005: Unspecified error

VS 2015: 0x80004005: Unspecified error

IIS Express via command line: Error cannot find «My documentsIIS Expressconfigapplicationhost.config»

Solution:

Copied applicationhost.config AND redirection.config from %programfiles%IIS ExpressconfigtemplatesPersonalWebServer into the «IIS Expressconfig» folder under My Documents.

Make sure you copy the redirection.config file, it WILL NOT warn you about this, just fail with the obscure 0x80004005 error. Had to monitor file I/O to track it down.

Also quite possible you need to set %IIS_BIN% yourself to «%programfiles%IIS Express».

So:

Make sure %IIS_BIN% is set
Make sure you have BOTH config files copied into the config folder
Make sure the wwwroot is writeable
- Make sure the «empty_wwwroot» referenced in the .config matches the x86 / x64 setting in Visual Studio (VS uses x86 by default, can be changed to x64 under Project settings => Web Projects)

I am facing exactly same Problem and this trick worked for mine.
i go to file

C:UsersuserDocumentsIISExpressconfigapplicationhost.config

where i found one of tag is missing «<» like this

application path="/" applicationPool="Clr4IntegratedAppPool">

i just put «<» in front of Application like this

<application path="/" applicationPool="Clr4IntegratedAppPool">

It looks very silly but believe me both VS13 and VS13 express working perfectly.

Can anybody shed any light on the above error? I’ve tried with both Express and Ultimate editions of VS 2013.

I’m running 64-bit Windows 7.

Solutions to similar problems I’ve found tend to be targetting x86 rather than AnyCPU from the Solution explorer. However, I can’t even build the solution to explore it.

The new project I’m trying to build is c# ASP.net MVC.

Have you tried to manually install NuGet for VS 2013?

I had a similar issue, until I found that the VS 2013 setup — for some reason — did not install the NuGet package manager. After I installed it manually everything worked fine.

answered Oct 21, 2013 at 9:13

I’m running on Win 8.1 Pro (64 bits) with Visual Studio Express for web 2013

The were two problems in my machine, namely :

the applicationhost.config file in C:Users(insert your user log in name)DocumentsIISExpressconfig was not well formed. It seems this problem occurs because the .NET configuration system reads the applicationHost.config file without locking it. If the IIS configuration file is being written to while it is being read by the Windows Activation Service (WAS), that file may be corrupted. Anyhow, I binged around and downloaded a pristine copy of it.
After fixing the above problem, I subsequently encountered the same error message (unspecified error — exception from hresult: 0x80004005 (e_fail) ). I then tried to create an MVC web project via another way. I created a blank solution and added an MVC web project to it and this time the IDE spewed out a different message. The pop-up window dumped a cryptic line like so, «IIS could not read C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319Configweb.config — error». I proceeded to uninstall IIS 8.0 and re-installed the application. And voila, I can now create MVC web apps again!

Question
Specifically Visual Studio 2012 Premium. i’m trying to create a task sequence for our developers group, but it fails everytime when it comes to installing VS. The only error code i get is 0x80004005, and the smsts.log has no errors that I can find.
I’ve already published it to the application catalog, and it installs without issue from there (the command line i’m using is «vs_premium.exe /adminfile AdminDeployment.xml /quiet /norestart»), but I cannot get it to install as part of a task sequence. When
I check the box to allow the task sequence to continue if an app fails to install, all of my other apps install fine. So is there anything I should know about VS 2012 specifically to get it to install as part of an imaging process?

p.s. I wasn’t sure what forum this question would best be suited for, so if I should ask somewhere else please let me know

Answers

Turns out it was the .net 4.5 per-requisite that was the problem. It installs fine from the VS 2012 installation package in the app catalog, but when being installed from a task sequence .net 4.5 doesn’t get install first, causing VS to error out. When
I updated our base image to include .net 4.5, VS 2012 is able to be deployed as part of the imaging process with no errors
