    I'm working away quite happily in Visual Studio (2008 if that matters). Suddenly on one of my attempts to run the app I have 102 errors, and a worrying message that the number of errors has exceeded the maximum. Nothing has changed I splutter... Visual Studio is unimpressed by my entreaty. I get Subversion to weigh in on the debate, hoping it will persuade Visual Studio that nothing has changed. Visual Studio laughs at Subversion calling it a "puny Open Source type thing" and farting in it's general direction. I'm not overly worried, this happened a few days ago and kicking Visual Studio upside it's head did the trick. I shut down Visual Studio and start a new instance. Usually new instances are more compliant than instances that have been around a while and had a chance to get stroppy. But no. This time my new instance has been in tough with the old instance and gotten the run down on how to piss me off. So, I'm still stuck with 102 and maybe more errors. Still nothing has changed. I'm about to reboot the PC which will probably fix the issue. In the mean time could somebody please sacrifice a sheep or a virgin to whatever Gods determine Visual Studio's mood. I don't have either close to hand. -Rd

        Ok - I sacrificed a virgin. ... Well, I say I sacrificed a virgin, I didn't have a virgin so I sacrificed a virgin pig. Well, I say sacrificed a virgin pig, I didn't have a virgin pig to hand, so I got hold of a pig that was already sacrificed and did some sort of worship dance. Well, I say I did a dance, I just ate a ham roll. Have your errors gone now?

            I just had one of those myself. All of a sudden the sharpdevelop designer decided it couldn't find the icon that it had no trouble displaying previously. So I ritually sacrificed a moth and deleted the offending reference to the icon file and everything worked. Fortuantely Sharpdevelop doesn;t think quite so highly of itself as vs Good luck with the chicken.

                      Yes. Bacon is the solutions to all of life's problems. Or is that beer...

                                  You may have some trouble fitting all those T-shirts to the Queen Mary 2. They seem to have hidden the masts from you. :)

                                    I live in Wales - no virgins for miles. And definitely no virgin sheep - before you get started about Cardiff Leisure Centres... :laugh:

                                          I'm working away quite happily in Visual Studio (2008 if that matters). Suddenly on one of my attempts to run the app I have 102 errors, and a worrying message that the number of errors has exceeded the maximum. Nothing has changed I splutter... Visual Studio is unimpressed by my entreaty. I get Subversion to weigh in on the debate, hoping it will persuade Visual Studio that nothing has changed. Visual Studio laughs at Subversion calling it a "puny Open Source type thing" and farting in it's general direction. I'm not overly worried, this happened a few days ago and kicking Visual Studio upside it's head did the trick. I shut down Visual Studio and start a new instance. Usually new instances are more compliant than instances that have been around a while and had a chance to get stroppy. But no. This time my new instance has been in tough with the old instance and gotten the run down on how to piss me off. So, I'm still stuck with 102 and maybe more errors. Still nothing has changed. I'm about to reboot the PC which will probably fix the issue. In the mean time could somebody please sacrifice a sheep or a virgin to whatever Gods determine Visual Studio's mood. I don't have either close to hand. -Rd

                                          OK, thanks to all those who have been ritually mutilating lifestock, I am now back up and running. Rebooting and heading to the canteen didn't do it. The secret, and this might be important for others, was to actually go outside the building and come back in while rebooting. I'm now searching for the GO_GET_FRESH_AIR flag in Visual Studio so I can turn it off. Again, thanks to all, particularly the virgin sheep that gave their lives for a good cause. Please let me hit production before the gods get the munchies again. -Rd
