BUILD problem | Rocket Forum

Using Visual Studio 2019 CE and Visual COBOL PE.

I have a series of programs which compile without errors. After a short break I fired up the project in VC and was confronted with this error message:

''The "MicroFocus.Cobol.BuildTasks.AssignSourceTargetPaths" task could not be loaded from the assembly C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2019\\Community\\MSBuild\\Micro Focus\\Visual COBOL\\v1.0\\MicroFocus.COBOL.BuildTasks.dll. Method 'get_SourceFileExtension' in type 'MicroFocus.COBOL.BuildTasks.CreateCobolManifestResourceName' from assembly 'MicroFocus.COBOL.BuildTasks, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0412c5e0b2aaa8f0' does not have an implementation. Confirm that the <UsingTask> declaration is correct, that the assembly and all its dependencies are available, and that the task contains a public class that implements Microsoft.Build.Framework.ITask.''

The program in question compiles without errors bu t I cannot run it because of the foregoing error message. I tried a Visual COBOL Repair but this has made no difference.

Seems very strange that this error has only just revealed itself.

This is a known problem that occurs when Visual Studio 2019 is updated to the 16.3 version. It breaks Visual COBOL 5.0. The fix is to download and apply VC 5.0 Patch Update 2.

Please see the previous post covering this topic here:

Thanks Chris. However when I click on the link in the other message you posted I get a ''404 File Not Found'' error.

The VC Patch Update 2 page (https://www.microfocus.com/documentation/visual-cobol/vc50pu2/#) appears to only show documentation so where can I download the Patch?

Sorry, the ftp site gets cleaned out monthly so the file at that link had been deleted.

I uploaded the Visual COBOL 5.0 Patch Update 2 installer again.

Please use this link.

I am not sure if this a relate issue. Visual Studio 16.4 with Enterprise Developer for VS 5.0 installed. I create a Native Cobol project in VS, and get this strange error that is like the one that was reported:

The "MicroFocus.Cobol.BuildTasks.FindGenericConfigFile" task could not be loaded from the assembly C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2019\\Enterprise\\MSBuild\\Micro Focus\\Visual COBOL\\v1.0\\MicroFocus.COBOL.BuildTasks.dll.

I get the same error after reboot, and attempt to create a new initial project.

Any suggestions?

I can only suggest applying the patch that Chris has provided a link for - it worked for me. I don't know whether the fact that we are using different versions of VC will make a difference.

Yes, you will need to download and install the latest Patch Update for Enterprise Developer from the Supportline Website. If you do not know how to do this then please open up a support ticket.

Hi ,

I am having the same problem, but that link is no longer found.

Do you have an updated link I can use?

Thanks.

Try applying the patch for Visual Cobol PE.

vcvs2019_50.exe is the base install.

vcvs2019_50_pu02_242792.exe is the patch.

the same version have all evaluator for visual cobol.

Chris says he have the update 5.

Why have your evaluator customer not the actual update and access to the update forum?

This is very important to have a stable version for testing the new programs converted from netexpress 5.x

Thanks to open this wall for all, the version is limited to 2200 lines of code and had no runtime licences!!!

I created this document for my students, and it seemed to help.

The name of the base install file was

vcvs2019_50.exe

The build problem should be fixed by installing the patch for Microfocus Cobol.
This was the name of patch that was available a while ago, but there may be a newer one.

vcvs2019_50_pu02_242792.exe

As some of the users already mentioned here, you may resolve your issue by installing Patch Update 2:

vcvs2019_50_pu02_242792.exe

As for your request to download vcvs2019_50_pu06_251958.exe, this cannot be applied for Visual COBOL for Visual Studio Personal Edition. The only Patch Update available for the Personal Edition is vcvs2019_50_pu02_242792.exe

Envoie un mail privé sur ce site.
Chris a Raison, pour la "Personal Edition" il y a qu'un patch.
Il existe une autre Version limitée à 2200 lignes de codes, licence valable pour un an.
Merci pour un signe de vie! je pourrais aider!

Bonjour,
Vous êtes le correspondant francais MicroFocus ?

**** What is your real Problem? by compiling? What is the error? what is
your ***** Cobol code?

---------> MicroFocus.COBOL.BuildTasks, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=0412c5e0b2aaa8f0' does not have an implementation

*** What have you for platform? Windows 10 64bit?
--------> Windows 7 SP1 64bit

*** What Visual Studio 2019? Last Version Build 5?
----> j'ai installé la dernière version Visual Studio 2019
-----> C'est quoi Build 5

**** What Visual Cobol files have you installed?
-----> J'ai installé les modules
-----> - vcbt50.exe, vcvs2019_50_pu02_242792.exe,

Non, je suis un client expérimenté de Micro Focus et travaille dans le domaine franco-allemand. Il est souhaitable de soutenir les étudiants qui apprennent à utiliser cet Instrument.
Il faudrait penser à passer sur Windows 10 comme base, la Raison est connue. Autrement pour la "Personal Edition" tout est bon. Il y a une autre Version disponible gratuitement pour un an limitée à 2200 lignes de Cobol.
A votre Disposition pour d'autres Renseignements ou aides! Cordialement
