Visual studio is waiting for internal operation to

Question

I have problem with my Visual studio 2013 Ultimate from few days. I'm trying to open even simplest console application and VS hangs and when I click something else in Visual studio in the bottom right corner shows up Visual studio is busy: Microsoft Visual studio is waiting for internal operation to complete.

I have repaired Visual studio no change, then unistall and install fresh VS and the problem is still there. I also checked for viruses. Everything else in Windows is working properly. I have disabled CodeLens, changed current source control plug-in to None because I found that sometimes this two options hangs vs but there is still no change.

Answer 1

delete project, move to another destinition.

Answer 2

This happened to me when updating a SSIS package using VS 2008,

Solution: Open the dtsx file, search all the timeouts and change them to something like 10 seconds, for some reason some of them where 0, which basically means: 'hang forever'.

Answer 3

For those who have this problem sometime in WPF Projects, You should just close XAML Designer process in task manager and after that click the Enable project code button in XAML Designer tab in Visual Studio. By doing that you'll continue working without closing visual studio.

Answer 4

The problem

This issue arises when the Data-source is a View that SELECTs from the results of other Views.

What happens is that the routine that calculates which columns supplied by the View gets confused.

The solution to the problem

Create a stored procedure that:

• Creates a temporary table
• INSERTs the View results into the temporary table
• SELECTs from the temporary table

This enables the Data-flow routine to calculate which columns are supplied by the View.

How I found the solution

I found this answer while creating a new data flow task using Visual Studio 2010's data-source assistant.

I ensured I would not experience network issues between the database and the application by hosting them on the same server.

The view in question was based on 2 other views, which were pointing to multiple tables over multiple databases.

The SSIS pkg was created by a windows account that is also server admin in Sql, but I think SSIS is just incapable of validating the data from such a complex View.

Answer 6

Not a great issue! Just restart your OS, whoooo Solved, every thing works smooth. This happens if we try to open more than one projects at a time.
