Installing ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM on Visual Studio 2010 RC

Friday, March 12, 2010

Visual Studio 2010 RC is built against the ASP.NET MVC 2 RC version but you can easily install ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM on the Visual Studio 2010 RC. For installing ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM, do the following steps

Uninstall "ASP.NET MVC 2 ".
Uninstall "Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 – Visual Studio 2008 Tools" If you have previously installed ASP.NET MVC 2 template for VS 2008 (Don't uninstall Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 – Visual Studio 2010 Tools ).
Install the new ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM version for Visual Studio 2008 SP1.

The above steps will enable you to use ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM version on the Visual Studio 2010 RC.

Note : Don't uninstall Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 – Visual Studio 2010 Tools

OK, so I already uninstalled ASP.NET MVC 2 - Visual Studio 2010 Tools before I saw your final Note above. Where can I find it to reinstall it?

@Mike

You can go to WCU\ASPNETMVC\ of your install iso image, and only install ASP MVC 2.0 Tools (VS2010ToolsMVC2.msi) again.
You do not have to reinstall Visual Studio
