  ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 Breaks MVC4 WebAPI

  Dec 18, 2012 05:46 AM|LINK

  I read:

  ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 is a tooling refresh of Visual Studio 2012 that extends the existing ASP.NET runtime with new features without breaking existing applications.

  I installed and it broke my existing application:

  In Global.asax.cs on the following line:

   WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);

  If get the error:
  Method not found: 'System.Web.Http.Controllers.ServicesContainer System.Web.Http.HttpConfiguration.get_Services()'.
  When trying to run my MVC4 WebAPI application
  
  Uninstalling 2012.2 removed made things worse... have to reboot now cause I'm attempting to reinstall visual studio. :(

  Hi DonaldAdams

  Sorry for the issues that you are hitting. I think you could try uninstall ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 first, and then

  install the Update 1 for Visual Studio 2012, you can download it for free from the link below,

   http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/downloads#d-visual-studio-2012-update

  Download ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 here, then re-install it.

  hope it helps you,

  Kind regards
