I recently installed the EF4.1-Update. When I made a new MVC3 Project and tried to add the MvcScaffolding using the PackageManagerConsole in VS2010 it wouldn’t install it. Has anyone else
seen this? I removed the EF4.1-Update from my machine and MvcScaffolding installs correctly.

thanks,

    It does work. And it works beautifully

    But I had some issues getting it all setup.

    What error(s) did you get exactly I had a number of issues, but solved them one by one.

    Did you get this sort of thing in PMC when VS started up? 

    The following error occurred while loading the extended type data file: Microsoft.PowerShell.Core, C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\types.ps1xml(2943) : Error in type "System.Security.AccessControl.ObjectSecurity": Exception: Cannot convert the "Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.SecurityDescriptorCommandsBase" value of type "System.String" to type "System.Type".

    If so either update .net Refelector (now costs), or go Tools > Add-In Manager and disable the .NEt Reflector add in ! THEN RESTART VS

    Or if you try to scaffold something, do you get e.g.

    Invoke-Scaffolder : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name -ModelType"

    ?

    Do you get errors when you try to add a controller to your MVC 3 project?

    Are you running on Windows (pre 7) + without powershell 2.0 installed?

    Basically don’t worry it does work, I think the order or installations matters, just work through it bit by bit, its worth it.
