Trouble installing ASP.NET Ajax

I have tried several times to install ASP.NET Ajax (latest version as of November 9, 2006). I get no indications of installation failure. However, the Ajax project template available when I create a project. There is no evidence of a project template in the appropriate templates folder.

I would like to use ASP.NET Ajax in my current project but will not be able if I can't get it installed. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

One thing I did notice is the extensions file is AJAXExtensionsToolbox.dll (notice the plural Exensions, but the documentation refers to Extension singular.

Thanks,

Rod

Hi Rod,

I was wondering whether you managed to solve the above problem.

I'm having a similar problem trying to install asp.net AJAX extensions and have the relevant templates appear in microsoft visual web developer express.

Would love to know in case you found a solution to this issue.

Thanks!!

For what it's worth, my first attempt to install moments ago, failed after about 5 minutes of disk churning.

I noticed I was running Visual Studio was running, so I shut that down and reinstalled. Then it worked, installed ok and controls are available.

I also noticed though that the "UpdatePanel" control (which allows for "partial page" updates does not allow drag and drop - which it should). Apparently it works in the Beta, which MS uses in the Video, but not in the "final release". You can actually make controls "children" of the updatepanel control using the HTML (source) view but that is tedious and it is not reflected in the "Design mode". I hope I am wrong about this but that's my experience thus far (trying it today).

Just my experience. Good Luck.
