Visual Studio crashes when navigating to Manage Connections page in Team Explorer about visualstudio

[haacked]

Thanks for the detailed report!

[shana]

@xperiandri What version of the extension do you have installed?

[xperiandri]

The current one from Visual Studio Gallery

[shana]

@xperiandri Do you have git support enabled in Visual Studio? If yes, have you opened any projects that are in git repositories in VS?

[xperiandri]

Yes, enabled
Yes, opened

So I launch VS. There was already opened some repository from GitHub.
I want to switch to another.
And when I click on green plug icon in Solution Explorer it crashes.

[shana]

@xperiandri Thanks for the info. Can you tell me the version of Visual Studio that's reported in Help - About window, and whether it's Community or Enterprise?

[shana]

@xperiandri Also, does your Team Explorer Home page tab look like the one below?

It crashes periodically.
I uninstalled GitHub extension today.
And installed just now. And it work
But after some time it starts crashing.
And after I delete extension Visual Studio works fine.

[shana]

@xperiandri Thanks! I know how it's crashing but not exactly why, you've been very helpful! We'll get out an update to fix this asap.

[xperiandri]

Cool! Thanks!

[joeseggie]

Am also having the same problem, but am using Visual Studio Community 2015 edition.

[MichaelPetrinolis]

The same happens to me, especially when I have vs2015 open and connected to TFS2010, if I open a vs2015 instance without solution loaded and press manage connections it crashes immediately

[shana]

@joeseggie @MichaelPetrinolis Could you post stacktraces of the crashes?

[joeseggie]

@shana Yesterday I uninstalled Community Edition and installed Enterprise edition and looks like the problem was resolved. I might not be able to reproduce the failure, but if it comes up again I will post the stack trace.

[MichaelPetrinolis]

Hi, it is pretty easy to reproduce the issue.

1. Launch vs2015 by opening an existing GitHub solution
2. Launch vs2015. In the team viewer window press the manage connections button.
   Studio crashes.

below is the stack trace. I have also the .dmp file if you want it.

@xperiandri @joeseggie @MichaelPetrinolis I've pushed a beta (https://github.com/github/VisualStudio/releases/tag/v1.0.12-beta0) with a fix for this issue, could you try it out and see if it fixes it for you? Feel free to update this issue with any feedback you have.

Thanks!

[xperiandri]

Cool!
For now it does not crash. Will test more.

[MichaelPetrinolis]

It seems ok.

Thanx!

Sorry to exhume the deceased equine. I'm running GitHub 1.0.15.2, and it's crashing. (And it's crashing without it installed.) Help requested.

@tim-dunn The stacktrace looks like it's crashing when trying to list the known repositories in the connect section during loading. If it's crashing without the github extension installed, then it's definitely not a github extension issue (and it's not in the stacktrace so it's likely not us).

@clboles @mtbandolier any ideas?

[tim-dunn]

TL;DR: It's still crashing after I tried to fix it.

Long form:
Uninstalled GitHub Desktop stand-alone executable via Revo Uninstaller Pro
Uninstalled VS2015.
Renamed my %USERPROFILE% files that contained my workspaces
Installed VS2015 under Revo Uninstaller Pro, so it logs all changes. (No dice.)
Uninstalled VS2015 with Revo using the log file
Reinstalled VS2015

Searched registry (didn't make any changes). Searching for 'git' returns hits on 'diGIT', so that doesn't work. Found some keys for 'TeamFound' and 'GitHub', but they don't look all that suspicious.

[shana]

GitHub Desktop has nothing to do with VS, so removing it won't change things.

Try closing VS, opening a VS 2015 command prompt, and running devenv /updateConfiguration, and then running VS again.

If that doesn't help, try devenv /setup (takes longer).
