Unlocking asp.net mvc templates in VS 2008

Ok so I downloaded the asp.net mvc via the web platform installer. Rebooted the machine and released VS 2008 Express. So there weren't any website / project templates that could customize the mvc project. I did a little research and found out that they will not appear in the express version. Regardless, I have a command package too, so I installed that and hoped the templates would show up. They didn't, so I reinstalled mvc and they still won't show up.

I hate this part of development - I just want the dognammed tools to work - what am I doing wrong - why the templates won't show up? I can't uninstall mvc now and the reinstallation just tells me it's already installed ...

If you installed Team Suite after mvc, it won't see templates. Try reinstalling MVC, it glows and won't take long.

If you have asp.net mvc installed and you don't see templates in visual studio, try starting an administrative command prompt and running devenv - setup so that templates can be registered.

c: \ Windows \ system32> cd "C: \ Program Files \ Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0 \ Common7 \ IDE"



C: \ Program Files \ Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0 \ Common7 \ IDE> devenv - setup

this should help

Are you sure? I thought it should be .NET 3.5. This is a web application from the New Project dialog and not through the New Site dialog. Annoying but alas!
