  • I can't reproduce this I'm afraid, in that i have the exact same environment that as you and its all installing fine.
    I'd look at installing the VSIX separately (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vs-publisher-306627.SQLPrompt) with logging and hopefully that will point you in the right direction.

    Have you visited our Help Centre?

    hi
    the link does not point to a VSIX, i get the download exe file that i have installed before.

    Is there a VSIX file that i can install directly in VS 2019?

    I have the same problem as the OP, it works fine in all other places but VS2019.

    One thing that may be a contributer is that I had the 2019 RC installed and then upgraded it to the release version via a VS update. I wonder if that put things in a slightly different place or had something different that causes the install not to see 2019 correctly.

    I installed VS2019 pro when it was released, and have not had any other installations of VS219 on my machine.
    I am running it together with newest release of VS2017 pro.

    I'm having the same problem - SQL Prompt doesn't work in VS 2019

    Have joust installed newest version of SQL prompt and it is still not installing in VS 2019.

    First I uninstalled the old version and then I installed the new build.
    But no sql prompt in VS 2019 :-(

    Please advise!!

    Attached is the install log from my machine after a fresh uninstall/install. you will notice that I had 2019 running so it would show up in the log before closing it for the installation.

    I have tried on different computers now, with same result.

    But I have now opened a support case, so hope to be able to post a solution at some point :-)

    Well I got SQL prompt working on VS 2019 today.
    -uninstalled VS2019
    -Uninstalled SQL prompt
    -Restarted
    -installed VS2019
    -installed SQL prompt

    Now Sql prompt works in VS2019

    !!!!!! BUT NOW IT IS GONE IN VS2017 :angry:  !!!!!!

    Not easy using two development tools at once :dizzy:

    You must be kidding with me. Does that mean I have to uninstall all my development tools (VS2017 and VS2019) to make the SQL Prompt installation to work right. If that is the case, it is time to say good bye to SQL Prompt. Why I am paying the product to bring trouble to myself. I have noticed the Red-Gate product quality is getting worse and worse. Any good replacements for Red-Gate tools?

    I have a ticket at Redgate support, and hope that they soon solves the problem :-)

    I have not found a tool that is better than SQL Prompt, have testet at lot at my last job, where I should decide what to use.

    so I hope that they soon solves the problem, so we again can use sql prompt on both 2017 and 2019...

  • Finally worked again, thanks! I had to force a refresh though by going to Extensions > SQL Prompt > Show List of Code Analysys Issues and then clicked the refresh button in the window that came up. Finally started highlighting and doing Intellisense correctly after that.
