If you previously had ASP.NET MVC Preview 1 (CTP 1) and had already created a few projects on it then you might have to take this additional step to convert your project to ASP.NET MVC Preview 2 (MIX 2008) [After installing MVC Preview 2 (Resources here<\/a>)].<\/p>\n

In ASP.NET MVC Preview 2 we introduced a special MVC Project flavor GUID for MVC Projects.  Some of the special MVC project behaviors described in my previous post "Tooling Features Overview<\/a>"  may not function as expected e.g. new ‘MVC’ node under the ‘Web’ node for ‘Add new Items Dialog Box’ may not show… <\/p>\n

\"AddnewItem\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To make the project features to function as expected in Preview 2, open the MVC project file (.csproj\/.vbproj) of the project you created using MVC Preview 1.  Look for ‘ProjectTypeGuids’… You will find the below piece of code… <\/p>\n

       <ProjectTypeGuids>{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21};{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc}<\/ProjectTypeGuids><\/p>\n

Replace the above with:<\/p>\n

<ProjectTypeGuids>{603c0e0b-db56-11dc-be95-000d561079b0};{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21};{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc}<\/ProjectTypeGuids><\/p>\n

When you reload\/reopen your project your MVC Preview 2 functionality will be available in the projects you created MVC Preview 1.  Do note this in addition to other steps mentioned in the Readme Document for ASP.NET MVC Preview 2<\/a> which goes into greater details of upgrade scenario…<\/p>\n
