I tried adding a QAction with new ID in protocol.xml for one of my connectors. When Clicked on the action menu to select Edit QAction it threw me a new error as attached, It's not allowing me to create it's associated project. I've crossed checked for unique ID and name with all necessary properties. I would need assistance on this.

Hi Nancy,

the stack trace indicates that Visual Studio found a project with this name (which is QAction_<ID> where <ID> is the ID of the QAction as specified in the protocol XML). Can you verify whether there is a folder QAction_<ID> in the solution that contains a csproj file with the same name?

If so, can you remove the project from the solution and then also remove that project  on disk? Then try to click edit the QAction icon again in Visual Studio. That should generate a new QAction project as there will be no project with this name already.

Do you consistently run into this issue or is this the first time you experience this?

What version of Visual Studio are you using? If you are using an older version, updating to the latest version is also recommended.

Hi Nancy, What result do you get if you try a different QAction number? (A number you have never used)

Thanks,

Dave
