Why isn't the Add to Source Control check box available when I create a new project and there are no options in the Current source control-plug in setting?

Make sure that your Source Control project exists in the registry as follows:
-
Click Start and Run.
-
Type in regedit, then click OK. The Registry Editor will open.
-
If you're using a 32-bit version of Windows: Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SourceCodeControlProvider\ProviderRegKey.
If you're using a 64-bit version of Windows: Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\SourceCodeControlProvider\InstalledSCCProviders.
This will show the Source Code Control Provider that will be used by Magic xpi. Other Source Control systems might be installed, but only one can be in use at a time.
If it does not appear in the registry, you need to add it.

Q2
|
Why isn't my Source Control tool appearing in the Current source control-plug in drop-down list?
|
|

In order to work with your Source Control tool and Magic xpi, you need to install the API for the Version control. For example, for TFS, you need to install the Team Foundation Server MSSCCI Provider 32-bit plug-in for Visual Studio. Once you've installed it, go to Magic xpi's File menu, select Source Control and then Launch <Source Control Provider> (for TFS, this option is Launch Team Foundation Server MSSCCI Provider).

Q3
|
When trying to open a project from the Source Control database using the Open from Source Control option, why am I getting the following error: "The operation could not be completed. The system cannot find the path specified."?
|
|
A3
|
This is a known issue when using the TFS source control. For TFS, is recommended not to use this option. Instead, get the entire project using TFS's Source Control Explorer.

Q4
|
Why am I getting the "Missing definition for Magic xpi Server resource" error?
|
|
A4
|
This error may occur when using a source control tool and the Studio cannot find the resource and/or services XML files specified by the project.
The resources.xml and services.xml files are not source controlled from within the product, so the files may need to be retrieved from the source control tool using a Get command.
You should also verify that the specified location is accessible, that you have the necessary permissions, that the file exists on the local system, and that the files are present in the specified location. To do this, open the Project Properties window and check the files' specified location.

Q5
|
What should I do if I get a "CVS Client Installation is incomplete" error?
|
|
A5
|
This is a known issue when you have a Magic xpi installation and a separate Magic xpa installation with the CVS option (Client and Server). After starting the Debugger or invoking a Magic xpa component, this error sometimes appears. Just ignore the error.

|
Q6
|
Why am I getting an "Item does not exist" error when trying to check in my project?
|
|
A6
|
The following error may appear when you try to check in the entire project: "The current source control operation cannot be completed. The source control plug-in returned the following error: Item does not exist."
To solve this issue, check in everything from the Pending Check-ins window.
