Install of extension incomplete (perhaps) #21

Closed CosCallis closed 5 years ago

CosCallis commented 6 years ago

Following the installation of the ngrok plugin for VS2017 the appropriate menu option appears. However, when I select that menu option (Tools ->Start ngrok Tunnel) I receive a message stating that it is not installed...and offering to do so.

notinstalled

If I select Yes, I am then given a null reference exception: nullreference

Installing plugins is pretty simple, I can't imagine what I might have done 'wrong'

Same. VS 2017

mnickhoo commented 6 years ago

i have problem too

simonds commented 6 years ago

As a quick fix, can I manually download ngrok.exe and drop it into a particular folder? I tried placing it in the extension folder, but that didn't help.

VladislavAntonyuk commented 6 years ago

You have to setup path to ngrok exe in VS

simonds commented 6 years ago

Found it in Options. Thanks @VladislavAntonyuk.

SimonChris commented 6 years ago

I am having the same problem.

VladislavAntonyuk commented 6 years ago

@SimonChris You have to setup path to ngrok exe in VS options

skills0 commented 6 years ago

It would be helpful if the setting up the options was noted somewhere obvious. I am still getting the "Not installed" issue even if I set the path.

VladislavAntonyuk commented 6 years ago

Make sure you have set up path correctly. Try to copy ngrok.exe to C: driver and set the path as C:\ngrok.exe

skills0 commented 6 years ago

ok, so the path needs to include the "ngrok.exe", which is different than the way most path hints work. working now. just feel like this needs slightly clearer documentation.

I had to restart VS2017 after adding the PATH variable

devinrader commented 5 years ago

@dprothero wonder if this is the issue I also ran into with the regex being broken?

dprothero commented 5 years ago

Hey all, I will be working on fixing this and updating the documentation. Thanks for your patience. When it installs ngrok for you, it should set the path for you automatically. Something broke in the automated download process. 👎

dprothero commented 5 years ago

Hey folks, just released v0.9.11 that should address this issue. However, feel free to re-open this issue if you find otherwise.
