Hi There

I am trying to run the RAD power tools to create my entities and UI. I populate all fields and create a property.

When I click generate nothing happens. The cmd window just closes. I see that the json file was created in the AspNetZeroRadTool folder for my entity but nothing else was created.

I have installed all pre-requirements on the overview page. I am using vs 2022 community.

Where can I find logs of the issue or how can I resolve this.

Thanks

    The Issue seems to be with vs 2022. I opened the project in VS 2019 and the power tool ran correctly. Just gave issues with Exell exporter and the template is not the same as the metronic theme.

    Hi @garysund

    VS 2019 is using an old version of Power Tools. For VS 2022, you should use Power Tools 3.1.1. If you have installed this extension, could you also install .NET Core 2.2 Runtime. ?

    @ismcagdas , I had probably a similar problem, and didn't know why the powertools just didn't do anything. Of course the .net Core 2.2 Runtime was missing. But I only found out after trying to call the Powertools from the commandline. Maybe you could make a sanity check for the Power Tools in the UI whether all requirements are correctly installed, or at least leave the command window open after completion if there was an error executing, that would help immensely because the error message would have said right away that the runtime was missing.

    Or as a final suggestion, just update it to a runtime (e.g. 6? ;)) which is definitely installed along with the Visual Studio version you require anyways, that would save the most trouble ;).

    Hi @chrisweinmuellner

    Upgrading to .NET 6 is on our roadmap :). You are right, Power Tools might provide extra messages for such errors. We will also consider this.

    Thank you for your feedback.
